Great teachers! I spent all four yeas at St Vincent and loved it. Many clubs and sport that helped students grow. At St Vincent we were taught on how to write great papers. When I went to college I found English classes were easy since we were so well prepared by St Vincent. The classes taught at St Vincent helped me to succeed in college.
