As a graduate of Nazareth, I am most disappointed with this school. After transferring my daughter from an archdiocesan high school where she had received an academic scholarship, my daughter has never been so poorly received. I am grateful for the few teachers that have had the courage to support and encourage my daughter. The nepotism and favoritism are beyond belief and the rules only apply for certain people. If you dare to question, everything is just "your perception" and your child will pay the price. You will learn that an A at an archdiocesan high school is a "B' at Nazareth. Character formation? Your daughter will get a lesson in clique formation. However, I am most disturbed by the blatant disregard and disrespect toward the Catholic values that we strived to instill in our daughter. How is "White Houses" played at the Father/Daughter dance like it's the school song? Nazareth needs to remember that their first mission is to send strong Catholic women into the world as lights.

Our daughter will graduate this year and it will be bittersweet to see her move on and leave Nazareth. We have watched her become a confident and caring young lady. The teachers are the best here. They encourage each girl to reach her full potential and they care so much! The past four years have been a wonderful experience.

It is everything you would want in a school for our daughters. It is family oriented, supportive, motivating, inspiring, and encouraging to both our girls and their families. We are new to the school, but already feel so welcomed. The academics and the faculty are phenomenal. They are always available and all want the girls to excel in not only their subjects, but being successful women in life.

I teach at Nazareth Academy and when I first went there it was liking dying and going to teacher heaven. Every element of Nazareth is special including the students, staff and faculty and the parents.

Nazareth Academy is the best place to be for a young woman during her formative years. Each girl grows to become her own person, strives for her own personal excellence and is supported by friends and teachers in a family atmosphere. I would highly recommend it to any parent who wants the best education for thier daughter.

As a parent I have complete confidence in the instruction our daughter has received in such a short period of time, from the caring teachers and sisters who have dedicated their time to helping each girl, shine from inside out. I know our daughter will be able to fullfill her ultimate career choice. Nazareth is a place of Family, Friends, and Faith.

Nazareth Academy High School offers an amazing academic program for the students. The school also rounds out the whole person with Music and Sports programs as well as social activities. The faculty and staff make everyone feel welcome -- like a part of the family. It's a great high school experience for both the students and parents.

I graduated from Nazareth in '07 and I absolutely loved it. Such a warm, family environment. It definitely prepared me for things to come in college. I will never forget my time at Nazareth or the people there
Nazareth is a true extension of how we feel about life in our home. Everyone who comes into contact with our daughter on a daily basis truly cares about her. She is nurtured while being challenged each day. She feels comfortable safe and cared for while going throuogh her school day. Her teachers have the girls' best interest at heart and it is obvious each and every day. They are preparing these gilrs for the future and want them all to be the best they can be. all aspects of these girls are important to them. They cultivate the arts, music, athletics, along with the rigorous academic schedule. Our whole family loves Nazareth and we are very proud that our daughter is a part of the Nazareth student body.
