I have spent four years in this school. The teachers are fifty-fifty. There is an astonishing difference between Honors classes and College Prep classes, but most Advanced Placement classes are nice. (AP sciences are hard, though.)

The best part about Donovan Catholic has been all the friends I have made throughout the years and all the teachers would have really helped me succeed. Also, it is great to see the school working to update many of the classrooms and the appearance of the school.

Donovan Catholic has a nice small community feel. At Donovan Catholic you are treated as a young adult helping to prepare you for the future. There isn't any hand holding to allow you to become independent. The facility knows your name and recognizes your potential. The counselors are very active with assisting with college searches and recommendations. The facility and staff make themselves available for any extra help or simply for direction. You're made to feel like an individual and not just number in the class. They are easy to approach and make you feel comfortable.

On the outside (the commercials) it sounds great. The problems begin with a teaching staff that has a huge...

I attended Monsignor Donovan and can truly say it was an environment 100% focused on nurturing not just my academic and athletic abilities, but my spiritual and personal needs as well. My teachers understood how to challenge me as an individual, and how to adjust those challenges to meet the needs o...
