My best experience in the school was definitely just knowing and interacting with my freshman HN Biology teacher. She is the most amazing and supportive teacher. The worst is the HN Chem teacher. He is the worst teacher in the school and was even threatened to be taken to court. He gave me trauma I will never forget. Yet the school has done nothing even though multiple students have reported him and parents have also reported him.
I really enjoyed my time at Padua Franciscan High School. It's a very welcoming environment and feels like a second home. I wish that some things with the academics were different. I had previously tried to take honors in math and sciences but have been held back from taking it due to the administration even though I have always been an A studennt in those courses.
Padua Franciscan is a college prep school that allows students to get a great education and prepped for college. The students can make connections with teachers and get involved in their school culture.
Great experience! Friendly; staff and administration were always helpful. 1 of 5 high schools in the city of Parma, OH and we always were perceived to be the best school.
Padua Franciscan is an academically challenging school that emphasizes the values of community and service to its faculty and students. They have a wide variety of clubs and activities to help you get involved and meet new people. Not only am I on the volleyball team, but I'm also in the Astronomy club, Spanish Club, Orchestra, and the president of NHS. I am taking rigorous courses that will help me feel prepared for college and my counselors are easily accessible whenever I have questions. I have made such great connections... read more
Advanced courses prepared me greatly for college. Sports programs are par with other top high schools. Cafeteria food is better than most high schools.
From my experience on the Honors track with MyTrack Comp Sci & Engineering, the faculty and staff will do everything to help you learn. They're kind, understanding, but also tough in all the right places. You'll walk out smarter and more confident with life skills. Every year, theres improvement in different spaces and more ways to get involved. However, diversity is an issue in the sense of ethnicities and beliefs that dont align with popular culture. But, more people become open minded as the years go on and prospective st... read more
I had a great time at Padua. I was able to connect with new people and make some new friends. I was able to participate in athletics throughout the school year. I was also able to succeed academically even while taking challenging courses. The worst part of my experience was that I had to deal with COVID my sophomore year. That took away some of my learning and experiences. The only thing the school needs to change is that they need Air Conditioning!
After 4 years of attending a college-prep school, I can safely say that Padua has done an excellent job at preparing me for college. The councilor's guided me through the process of college admissions and made it as simple and stress free as possible. Most of the teachers are phenomenal as well. I’ve heard different war stories about some but most of my teachers have and do excel at their job. I can say that I’ve received a quality education from attending Padua and find it to be fairly affordable as well. It’s a great educa... read more
