McDevitt is a great school that lives through the values and faith, family, excellence, and tradition. They help prepare the students for college and life as a whole. I would like to school to bring back their hockey team but other than that I don't have any issues with the school.

The best experiences I've had at Bishop McDevitt are when we have fun events and activities for the whole school to participate in. The worst experience I've had is that the Catholic/Christian values aren't upheld as well as they should be. I would like to see more spiritual growth and development to lead students towards the morals and values of following Jesus Christ.

Graduated in 1971. Best education in the entire area. Philosophy of the system and educators still have an influence on my life to this day. I was well prepared in the continuance of my education. Highly recommended.
