I understand not having them in class, but they should be allowed to use them in the hallway and at lunch. this school smells like rotting cooch, and the bathrooms smell like if everyone in the school took a fat shit in a pile and it was set on fire. I also found multiple condoms around the school, and I heard that people have sex in a cubby in some band room. someone fr needs to get super nanny for the kids in this school.

Esp if you have something they want; Good grades, high placement test scores, athletics, or I am sure a lot of money to donate to the school. I would not know about the last one. My son got excellent grades on his placement test and had always been a good student. However needed a lot of financial assistance to attend. We were assured "If you want Seton, Seton wants you, don't worry about the cost." That was from the recruiter, the last time I talked to her. Right after we he was accepted, we never heard from her again. We did hear from the business office and "Smart Tuition" soon enough with a big old bill though!! I almost choked as it was a heck of a lot more than I expected!! Many hidden "fees" they do not tell you about up front. At first I felt blindsighted and as thought they had not been totally honest with me. The year went on, and I felt a little better, and my son liked it there. Then his "chromebook" broke. I had purchased insurance on it, which was "guaranteed to cover" said instrument for all four years. Honestly things were very bad not through anything having to do with school, but in our personal finance issues, that the price of the insurance was difficult, but I figured it was a lot better than the cost of the computer. I knew my son was careful, but machine is a machine and things can happen. However when my son's broke I was told the insurance dropped them, and I was on my own anyway, and expected to pony up a few hundred to purchase a new computer for the school. This would be given to him to keep upon graduation. I could not afford it it first, so he went an entire year w/o one, using the library one, getting in trouble with one of the English teachers because she penalized him for not having one. He maintained good grades, but I know he would have done better with the proper materials. HIs junior year I finally got him one, and he did great, however our life circumstances recently dictated a move during the summer to another school district out of the area. I figured well, he paid for the computer, and in one more year, it is his anyway. Wrong, because he was forced through no fault of his own, and even though he had no fault in the charger not staying in the port of his first one............we were to send it back or they flat out refused to send his records. I was told I did not "purchase a computer for my son", even though he would have maintained it in another nine months, I purchased an "asset for the school". I cannot help but feel I was being penalized for leaving. I do like that the school stays away from Common Core by not even accepting federal lunch programs, even though that was quite an economic hardship as well, I bore as I ha to. However you leave and they do not get their PSAS money for you, you will pay. Dearly. They, like many so called "Catholics" and "Catholic institutions" nowdays are all about the money and/or the sports, not the people.

Everyone at St. Catherine's really makes you feel welcome. The pastor is very nice, friendly and he always gives insightful homilies. What I really love about St. Catherine's is they are really accommodating, to which there is a Spanish mass at 1pm on Sundays and they also have a room in the back for unruly children. The charming choir performs every week during Sunday 11am mass. In the summer, usually the first week of August, they hold a church festival with games and food. It's not that large but it's fun for all members of the family. A thing to note: you must get the homemade fried zucchini at their annual festival because it is delicious! I've been going to St. Catherine's for many years and although it's not fancy, it is definitely one of my favorite churches in Pittsburgh.
