Smaller school, which I really liked because I felt that I had more opportunities to play sports and really get to know both the teachers and other students.

The Community is very welcoming. All the people that make up the school make you feel like you part of one big family--no matter how long ago you will/have graduated.

If your kid is talented, smart, and athletic go ahead and send them here. If your child has an ounce of creative being, or does not follow the mainstream, and/or LGBTQ+ they WILL be bullied and the teachers will most likely let it happen. If you love your kid and they are different, don’t send them...

This school preaches no bullying and fair treatment for all however its laughable. A girl bullied another girl for being overweight. However instead of doing anything about it they let it go, because the bully's parents donate money. Disgusting behavior.

One of the worst choices I’ve made in my life is going to this school due to the terrible teaching and very outdated infrastructure.

I love Holy Name! The teachers are great so are the students! I think we are all close and everyone is just so nice. There's something for everyone there. Our girls soccer team and hockey team are playing very well! Our campus ministry are excellent. Holy Name was the best decision I've ever made!
