Chaminade College Prep School

My son is a sophomore is year. He started as a freshman. Being in a school who takes the higher level student, brings good conversations in the classes and the students work to continue to achieve good grades. Chaminade is not a "Boys school", it is a "School for boys". The teacher's truly understand how to educate boys. Their motto is "Esto Vir"; Be a Man. The boys are some of the nicest and politist kids I have ever met. The music program is outstanding. Come for a visit, we are glad we did!

Great School. Big amount of money to go to this school but it is worth it!

I don't believe the school lives up to its' reputation. What they advertise, and what they practice, are two different things. It is eletist, and more concerned with money than christian values or gender specific education. For the tuition, the value is just not there. They are constantly asking for more money!

My son graduated from Chaminade in 2008. He was able to take classes not typically offered at other schools, which gained him great scholarships in college. Also, the staff certainly knows how to take care of boys. Their 'one size doesnt fit all' approach is second to none. The house system is also a great way for young men to become leaders amongst peers.

Best investment we ever made. Our son is now attending the United States Military Academy at Westpoint. Thanks to the entire CCP family.

an alumni here, It's a lot harder to get into a good college graduating from Chaminade because Chaminade tries to uphold its academic excellence by overwoking its students yet rewarding them very little.

teachers going out of their way to help students is not always the best prep for college. My 2 ents

We love the school so far. Our son is now in 7th grade. He loves the athletics and the social atmosphere. The teachers and staff have all been so welcoming and friendly. He feels the work is intense, but it has not stopped him from wanting more. We feel he will be well prepared for college after this experience!!

Great school academically, and athletically. Won the state soccer championship again! Not bad for an enrollment of 950. My stepson loves soccer is good at it, loves the dedicated phys ed, and soccer coaches, teachers, councelors and aspires to play soccer there someday. Great reputation!
