I don't know where I would be without this school. Not just the institution but the community contained in it. I attended the elementary as well so this community has basically raised me. I appreciate the genuine human beings I encounter on campus. The teachers are not just employees, they express their humanity in every moment. They are more my mentors than my teachers. Some of my favorite times at school are just having conversation with them outside of class, whether it be about a concept taught in class or anything we find a common interest in. I also feel that the academic rigor is at a pace which is sure to benefit anyone who enters our campus.

Great teachers but the teachers do not in-force discipline. I would like to see the teachers enforce this more.

As a family who recently moved from the Midwest, we were initially skeptical about sending our son to a private school in California. However, after a culture shock at the local public high school, we made the decision to look for alternative options. That's when we found St. Vincent de Paul High Sc...
