Warm and welcoming environment. The teachers are very dedicated to their students and they make learning fun
12/19/2024
Best parts: sports, brotherhood, easy to navigate campus, comfortable campus, nice and helpful teachers, valuable lessons being taught in every classroom at all times no matter the subject, friendly staff and faculty, top tier resources like sports/weight, and academic readiness. downsides: not really any only if you are a stingy person and don't like to be pushed out of your comfort zone.

We really feel like Serra is a great learning experience for our son. We are excited to participate in the baseball program this year. We have also really enjoyed meeting the faculty and other parents.

He was recommended to attend a residential...

A safe place to send your kid to learn ethics. However, the academics are mediocre and public's schools have more options, more qualified teachers, and more opportunities. Our son did not even have an option for a science class in his senior year. Serra works hard at making sure grades are good for...

Serra high school has been truly amazing for my son. He will be entering his Junior year this coming Fall and he is having the high school experience of a lifetime. Not only is he thriving academically, socially and athletically, he is forming friendships with his fellow classmates that will last a...
