I am halfway through my first year at St. Cecilia and couldnt be happier. The school is welcoming and inviting, and I know every girl in my grade. The couh ses really push you to your potential, and everyone wants you to succeed. This really is a great school!
As a former student, I value the education I received at St. Cecilia, and use it every day. The staff is so caring, and will work with you outside of class to make sure you truly grasp the taught concepts. The curriculum is challenging, but prepares each student well; my first year of college was a breeze.
an amazing school! although there are restrictions because the sisters are stringent, you can really find yourself at SCA and explore more then just the superfically norms that most highschool students are acustom too. You have a chance to find yourself because you dont have to conform to the clicks or the other pety high school drama. I went there and even though I disagreed with the religious aspects, I found that I could explore a deeper meaning to life and search for my own truth. Also there are benefits to going to an all girls school.
I am a freshman at SCA and cannot imagine myself anywhere else. The courses are plentiful and extremely challenging. I have already signed up for 5 clubs and am playing on a varsity sport. The opportunities at SCA are endless...the Sisters are sooo sweet, the classes are really hard, and the faculty consists of people that want you to succeed. I can go in for help at anytime and the teacher will stay with me for however long I need her to. Also, going to an all girls school means there are no distractions. I know that if I push myself hard at SCA, I can go anywhere in life.
'We love you, St. Cecilia, love your sweet simplicity!'.....only an alumnae would understand these words. Although the campus and the curriculum have grown since I was a student, the basic foundation that S.C.A. provides is still stronger than any other I've seen. St. Cecilia still graduates students who will carry the torch of faith, knowledge and love. It is and always will be a truly great school!
