[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think both of these schools are great. You can't go wrong. [b][b]The OLGC principal one year in the past 10 I think was fired [/b]and the new principal is more popular. You never know who the principal or teachers are going to be. Some are great and some can be problematic. They have an impact, but the curriculum and families remain pretty consistent from year to year. The parents and kids are very similar from one school to another. School start times are slightly different and school class sizes are slightly different, but the experience is similar. If you are interested in a catholic education, a strong academic foundation and extracurricular foundation, each of these schools will be solid. I do think the diocesan schools are a little stricter but in a good way. They have some oversight. Still OLGC has been around a long time and both of them were very popular choices during the pandemic and many families decided to stay. OLGC might feed more into O'Connell and Gonzaga and St. Mark a balance between O'Connell and Paul XI. I am not certain of this. You could ask where kids move on after graduation. Many return to public school for high school too.[/quote] She was not fired! She was beloved but moved to a different state. New principal is great too. Very warm, awesome energy! [/quote] Thank you, this is helpful to know! Appreciate your feedback. [/quote]
