I will say that the diversity of the school has gotten better over the years and the students are friendly and intelligent. I would also say that some of the faculty are either racist or plain rude, and majority of the education there is subpar. The lunch isn't the healthiest and we do have to pay for it, but it is good. Overall, Cardinal Ohara is a pretty decent school.

I joined theater/stage crew and absolutely love it. We are taught how to run a show from beginning to end and everything in between. I found my theater family for life.

As a recent graduate all I have to say is the administration at this school is extremely bad. The discipline department is very rude to students and does pick favorites when dealing with a situation. Also the teachers are very bad with the exception of a few good ones. Most of the school is in dire...

The administration has taken a very wrong turn in the ways of running this school. Most students that I have come in contact with feel lousy about the way their being treated. As a parent (who works closely with the school), I see my child as being overly disciplined to the point she feels nervous t...
