I'm currently in my 4th year at Santa Teresa and I honestly really love it here. My first two years were rough when it came to adjusting but now i'm enjoying almost everyday and class here.

The best parts of this experience were meeting new friends and getting along with everyone on campus. The worst part was the bathroom experience and the constant fighting that happened at least once a month. However, overall it wasn't too bad, and I would recommend it.

From my experience of being at Santa Teresa, it's been a fun 4 years of school at Santa Teresa. I didn't have my freshman year due to Covid-19, but the teachers helped me settle in during my sophomore year. There are some more tough teachers than others, but overall, the staff is super nice and friendly. It's somewhere where you can actually make real connections with people, like making friends with teachers so they can help you with college apps. The campus looks nice and in my 3 years on campus, there were minimal fights if any at all.

My experience with this school has been terrible. Unless you have a stellar student that can effectively manage their own school life balance theirselves then you will struggle and have no chance of success for your student here. No resources or options are provided for those students that need them...

Terrible. Don't send your children here unless you like them being verbally and mentally abused.

Our son recently graduated from STHS and his four years there were nothing short of what we could have only hoped for. At first, we debated enrolling him in a private high school. However, after careful consideration and speaking with an assortment of families and students at ST, we decided that he...
