Good community and good teachers, not a ton of diversity. Good amount of clubs and opportunities. Wish we could go off campus for lunch

I have enjoyed attending Blanchet for the last three years and can't wait to have one more year. Being surrounded by people that I know care about me and my education is important and that's what I get from being at Blanchet. The community is welcoming, exciting, and centered on making the world a better place. Being able to have so many opportunities at my hands is amazing. I love being able to see my friends and amazing teachers every day keeps me going. Blanchet was by far the best choice for me.
