My daughter is so happy at Ursuline! The school really cares about the girls and the small class size really makes it seem like a family. She is doing well academically and has a wonderful group of friends. I couldn't be more pleased with Ursuline Academy.
I agree with the May 15th posting. One of the meanest schools my daughter ever went to. She is now in High School, happy and doing well and till this day she says "she did not know what depression was, until she attended this school" Bullying from Teachers and Students
I go to Ursuline and i love the school, the teachers, and the people
Ursuline is an incredible school and I am very satisfied with. Ursuline has a history like no other's, and I am pleased with the will to teach or our teachers. It is my second year here at UA, and I have had nothing but good experiences. Ursuline has reached out and everyone's talents and interests are accepted and apprieciated. The academic progam is very impressive, as are the important art progams here. The classes are smaller which assuages the learning of the students. The students are granted more attention from the teachers. This school has not disappointed me.
I do not recommend this school unless, you have lots of money, politically connected or have a mother, grandmother that attended. This school seems to favor these girls over just regular girls.
I have a daughter in her 1st year at Ursuline Academy High School and we are extremely pleased. The small size of the school enables the girls to reach out to each other, and it is much easier to be appreciated and develop individual strengths and talents. The new principal seems commited to the quality of the academic program and the discipline. The academics are challenging and appropriate. The campus is beautiful ,especially the National Shrine where many ceremonies and masses take place. The girls are truely cared for at Ursuline Academy High School.
I highly recommend Ursuline Academy. The girls I have met and the environment in which I am surrounded by I believe is unlike other schools. At Ursuline, you know everyone because you see the same faces everyday. This school has helped me grow academically as well as spiritually. Choosing Ursuline was the best decision I have made. I am convinced that any other school would jsut fall short. Go Macs 2009!
It is awesome and a very creative school!
I am currently a student at this school and recommend this school to any girl who loves to have a great time and is up for a great learning experience plus your duaghter is going to have the time of her life and grow into a great and strong young woman. If I were any parent I would totaly choose this school for my daughter. I promise you going to Ursuline Academy has changed my life and I'm sure that it will trully change your daughters. Go macs of 2012!! thank you!
I am a graduate of Ursuline (class of 2005...go Sioux!) and I loved that school! There is no better enviroment for girls that age. The teachers are great, and Rally is the best!! I highly recommend my Alma Mater...:)
