There are many things to like about Padua Franciscan High School. The main thing is that everyone is so welcoming. It feels like a family when you walk in. It is not the stereotypical high school that everyone thinks it is. It is amazing all around and the faculty and staff make it their number one priority to make you feel welcomed.
Padua is a very welcmoing and positive enviornment to grow in. As a young adult coming it, it has definitley shaped me to be a better person.
Fantastic school. Rigorous academics, helpful teachers, tutorial study sessions always available. Able to reach teachers and administrators very easily. Very safe and caring environment
My education at this school has shaped who I am today. They have rigorous academics offered. The school camaraderie is very special. I am happy to be a student at this school.
I really enjoyed Padua High School. The faculty and staff were amazing and it really felt like a big family. I met so many people that I will be friends for life with and feel very prepared for college.
For the most part, I enjoyed my time at Padua High School. Many of the teachers are helpful and caring, however, some are not and should not be teaching. I took AP classes and had some teachers that did not know how to teach the material at a level that high school students could understand. Other aspects of Padua were great, such as the extra curricular activities, the attention to service and helping others, such as Christmas For Others and the sports teams. These made high school so much fun!
While some of the teachers were beyond knowledgeable and exceptional, others do not have a teaching degree or a degree in what they’re teaching. It very much stresses that Padua is a college prep school and some of the teachers were wonderful and went beyond what they needed to do, but again, there are exceptions in everything, so multiple staff members did the bare minimum. Overall, it is not an exceptional school, it’s average for what a high school should supply to it’s students.
I am impressed with the amount of higher level classes offered at such a relatively small school, and the teachers that I experienced in those classes were well equipped to give the students the information they needed. However, I believe that there could be more done to help those who struggle with their classes. An alarmingly large number of my friends have told me stories about how their teachers were not helpful, even after being asked specific questions about a topic.
This school has changed my life for the better. I feel like I have another home and I could not have asked for a better community. I have received a fantastic education and many chances at a leadership position. The faculty is wonderful and the entire community cares about the people around them. It is truly a family and I do not know what I would do if I went somewhere else.
