This school is great in their performing arts. I was in their choir and enjoyed my time there. I recommend it for that as well as their sports. The administration is alright as well as their teachers.

I credit my professional success and my best friends today to my time at Elizabeth Seton. Seton provided an outstanding academic experience along with critically important opportunities in leadership and athletics. I played basketball all four years and several of those teammates are still my best friends today (30 years and counting). I am proud of serving as class president for junior and senior years and know that my Seton experiences provided the foundation for my success in college where I earned a full four year scholarship and a BS with a mathematics major. I've returned to the campus and am delighted to see the ways it has changed (expanded programming) and stayed the same (commitment to excellence for young women).

The availability of many classes make it great for people who want to take new subjects, or for those who want to level up to Honors/APs. Counselors aren't the most reliable, but the education is good.

After looking at multiple schools, my daughter selected Seton. We have no regrets. Sister Ellen Marie cares so much about giving these girls the best experience available. My daughter gets all A’s. It’s not easy. The curriculum is challenging. There’s lots of after school activities too. Tuition is...

About 3 years ago, our daughter visited and shadowed at multiple outstanding Catholic High Schools in the Archdiocese of Washington and Baltimore. She chose Elizabeth Seton over all of them. The reason was very simple: the people. The faculty, students, staff and coaches warmly and sincerely welcome...
