This is an amazing school, had a ton of fun learning and participating in all the activities that the school encourages to have. The environment in this school is great, everyone gets along very well, the teachers educate the students very well and it is very easy to learn the materials.

The main aspects of Juan Diego Academy that I appreciate are the opportunities for student leadership and the enrichment of both faith and character. Most activities and events held at the school are student-led. Clubs and organizations are also student-run with the guidance of sponsors. This allows us to be more engaged and actually put what we learn to practice. The weekly masses and morning prayer allow us to use our time and our talents for the glory of God.
