My son is currently in the 10th grade at Northeast Catholic and his experience has been wonderful. The school has helped him grow into a fine young man.
With the addition of the new onsite Microsoft and Cisco Academy programs in 2007-2008, Northeast Catholic is taking a leading role in technology education in the area. As the parent of a current senior (2006-2007), the thing I found most amazing is that my son is being taught by many of the same teachers who taught me 25 years ago. That's a committed group of teachers!
Excellent selection for your child. The teachers are very well versed on every topic that rose up in the class to give the students various ways for solutions to the problems.
I consider North Catholic to offer an excellent education, an abundance of activities and an excellent faculty. The level of parent involvement is significant, although it could always improve.
Teachers at North are here because they want to teach at NC. Many could teach elsewhere for more money but chose to because of the school's history, tradition, discipline & pride. The faculty is talented, loyal, fair & compassionate. NC has many great activities including football, baseball and basketball. And with a famous tradition in soccer which has won 25 league titles and wrestling; winning 10 out of the last 13 championships. The chess team has even won 2 titles in the last 3 years. 'the good news' paper and 'model UN' teams are also noteworthy clubs to join. But above all NC graduates gentlemen in tradition of the oblates of st francis de sales who continue to lead the faculty & students here. As a parent who drives my son to NC 15 miles each way I can say it is worth every mile.
