My whole high school experience was great. Such a great small private school, felt like family here. I am going to miss it a lot!

This school is nothing but clicks and bullying of some students. Even the teachers will let some students get away with being cruel to other students. Really a shame how bad this school has become over time.

Because of Saint Bede and the activities they offer, I have grown to be confident and independent. There are so many opportunities to get involved and find activities that interest you. The teachers always put their students as their top priority. The courses can be challenging yet teachers are always open to helping students. The school is rich in school spirit and it offers a family sentiment.

terrible. I speak from experience and I haven't been here my full 4 years yet. The classrooms are falling apart, there is no security. Almost every classroom is infested with wasps in the warm months and no one does anything about it. I absolutely despise this school and cannot wait to finish this y...

I believe that the time my son spent at St. Bede has helped him develop into a more grounded and giving individual who continues to put others and their needs before his. This school did more than give him an education, it gave him an important piece of who he is.
