My experience at Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary High School was awesome. Nativity is has a close-knit community where you know everyone. I liked how you were able to know everyone becuase we do not have many students in the school. That is what makes it more like a family than a school. Something that Nativity could maybe change is be a bit more lenient with the dress code.

A well rounded education with many going on to advanced education. And with class size smaller than when we were in school, still have teachers and staff that have time for the number person the student's education and activities
