Amazing school. Much better academically than St Peters and Don Bosco. Worth the money. St Peters won't prepare for an elite college nearly as well as Bergen Catholic.
Endorse Bergen Catholic High School. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
