While attending IC Catholic Prep I have been able to meet new people and start new friendships with my classmates. Everyone is welcoming and caring for one another. I have been able to challenge myself with advanced courses and if I do struggle teacher are very helpful and willing to give extra help.

I met some amazing people here, and I truly feel like I discovered a lot of who I really am here. The staff was not the best, but there were a few exceptions.
