Personally, PC has been great for my first 3 years and I cant wait to go into senior year. I can't say that the good definitely outweighs some of the not so great experiences I have had. I have met many great friends, and have great communication with my teachers. We have just started to get more school spirit events and I am glad that it brings us the opportunity for the whole student body to get together. Since it is a smaller school it's most likely that almost everyone knows everyone. I hope senior year goes well.

Overall it has been very good. I wish there were more resources for college preparation. I've been involved in many clubs as well as being on the softball team.

Absolutely terrible institution! Starting from the top and head of school that cares more about sports and covering up any "incidents" than education and well being of students. Avoid at all cost especially your child mental, physical and emotional well-being.

Paramus Catholic has undergone significant changes over the years. Family members of mine who attended in the past had a very different experience. Currently, there are few events for students to celebrate or gather with their families, which makes the school atmosphere quite depressing. The emphasi...
