During my four years at Father Judge, I have formed many brotherhoods I will cherish forever. I have made many memories throughout my academic and athletic life. I would recommend Father Judge to any boy who wants to pursue academic and athletic excellence.

My high school experience was a little rough due to Covid. Father Judge made it work to the best of their ability. Some days where better then others.

This school has me seriously fooled. I thought it was a top notch catholic institution but it is the worst. The Dean and principal should be let go ASAP. I lost all faith in the catholic school system.
