If you plan to attend college, I would recommend St. Mary's Ryken High School. The teachers and staff are truly devoted to preparing you for life beyond high school. I have enjoyed the great amount of course that the school offers and not to mention, the clubs that are offered. This has allowed me to find what I am personally passionate about and I have met so many amazing friends. I know that once I complete my studies at St. Mary's Ryken, I will be prepared for the next step.

At Ryken there are a few teachers that I have had that were not helping me in the way they should have been. They would explain the assignment and then leave the students to do the assignments by ourselves. Whenever a student asked for help they would either have an attitude with us and barely help, or they would try to help but wasn't able to help in the way I needed them to help. The way to fix this is to walk me through it step by step and make me answer the questions, that is the only way I could get it in my head.

SMR was a great school for me. It was small enough that the teachers and administration all care about the students them and know but not to small. The athletics facilities are new and much nicer than many in the WCAC which is a competitive conference. The school is always adding new academic opportunities. It was a great high school experience.

Outstanding! This is not a high school. This is a college prep school. They give students the opportunity to succeed, but don't carry them, kind of like the way it is in life.
