I liked Saint Bede for the most part but i would like to see a few staff members be replaced because they lack teaching ability.

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!

There are many opportunities for students at this school with the unique clubs and the aggressive academics. I would like to see every student treated as equals though. Many students are favored and given special treatment while others are looked over.

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.
