Niche Reviews
6/13/2025
I cannot say enough things about Don Bosco Prep. My son thrived there and learned invaluable life skills that helped him navigate his first year at college with grace and integrity. From academics to sports/activities, everything is top-notch.
4/29/2024
The school created a warm and welcoming atmosphere for not only my sons but also our family. My son made lifelong friends.
11/15/2023
DBP is a wonderful place for boys to grow into young men. The campus is beautiful and the teachers are top notch. The Salesian fathers create a loving home-like environment where all are welcome and celebrated. The brotherhood is lifelong and the support system is strong. My son had an amazing four years learning and growing at Bosco.
GreatSchools Reviews
5/29/2025
They don’t tell you, but Don Bosco is a trap attracting students due to its “beautiful college campus” setting. As much as the school is nice, it is the worst for those who have an aspiring future at any elite college. #1 there is a huge BULLYING issue. Being all boys there are a lot of horrible kid...
5/26/2025
Worst experience ever! The support system at Don Bosco is awful and they don’t support those with aspirations of getting into top colleges like Ivy leagues. If you are not favored, you don’t succeed. Huge favoritism also occurs regarding placement in AP classes or honor societies. Do not go here, wa...
12/27/2020
Life changer!!!! The greatest decision I ever made was to attend this school. The faculty and staff truly care for the students and push them to learn positively. The academic programs are second to none while supporting a strong sports culture. You must maintain academic standards to play sports un...
6/10/2017
The most impactful circumstance affecting our son’s education is best understood when contrasting the public school he initially attended versus the school he then transferred into, Don Bosco. It is unusual in the sense that his previous public school was once regarded as one of the best public scho...
