I have loved attending St. Michaels. I have had the freedom to take any class I desire and participate in any sport I want regardless of my skill level. The teachers are kind and helpful if you ask for assistance. The rigor is also great. The college Counselors are a huge help in applying to college.

As a St. Michael's Catholic Academy alumni, it was very hard to leave such a supportive and loving community and family. Although, I do not attend St. Michael's anymore, I am still a part of their Alumni Organization where I am thankful to be a part of the St. Michael's family. St. Michael's Catholic Academy is truly a college prepatory institution that values each individual's academic performance and will go out of their way to help any individual student.
