My school experience at Archbishop Ryan was very helpful for me. It taught me a lot about what I need to know. It taught me more about art which is part of my degree I'm going for. I am having a good time here and have a good amount of friends which I'll miss going to college. I didn't have any bad experiences at Ryan. I have good grades and the teachers are mostly nice and teach well.

Only been here for one year, and I guess it's a pretty good school. You could see the effort put in from the school administration to try and make the school a better place. For the most part I think the teachers are all fine and get the students to learn about stuff. The school also teaches you to be respectful and make right choices, like how they invited someone to talk about the dangers in drugs and vaping. I do sometimes see bullying in this school, though I think bullying is just a universal problem.

I appreciate the opportunity to have attend this school, but my overall experience has been disappointing. The instruction from the teachers and the support from the staff have not met my expectations. I really would like to love this school but I cannot lie and say my experience has been good.

Excellent school if your child is determined to learn and progress in their studies. If you expect an easy standardized curriculum, this school is not for your child.

This school is great and at first I did not want to send my son here. I am so glad I did! He has done fantastic and we love the AP courses Ryan has to offer. The curriculum is top notch. There is a lot of options for sports and clubs as well.

There is a lot of staff who can't reply to emails. Or maybe they just ignore the mail? If you live in another state or are an international student, never go to this school. There will be a problem because you will never get a reply when you receive something from the school later. What a waste of m...
