I have really enjoyed my time at Bishop Walsh I have been a student there since PreK. I love the sense of family you have with the small class sizes. I have built many strong relationships with the people there and feel that the teachers are actually concerned with my well being and want to see me succeed. I would not say that there were any bad parts of my experience that outweighed the good. Overall I think that Bishop Walsh has prepared me to continue my education in college.

they only care about the high school sports. They say they tayler to you but they don't, they kick you in a group with kids as smart as you. The also teach the kids who aren't as smart the same stuff, they give them the same worksheet but cross of half the problems. I started going there this year and it was the academics as a public school (witch is 6,000 dollars cheaper). All the teachers are nice and caring, that is where they get you they send kids and parent's home with good reviews(but they don't care about you they care about reputation. I suggest you go to a nice public school like braddock middle school and allegheny high school

The kids make you feel isolated and stick to their own groups. They don't care about the students they just care about their own reputations. They use you. This place might seem welcoming and friendly at first but in the long run it's not. They make you feel worthless because that's all you are to them.

My children have received the instruction, respect, and discipline necessary to be successful. All children learn differently, and this is a school that supports that. The communication is great if you use the avenues provided, and these are continually improving. I do not hear about even small figh...
