“I am so thankful for the solid AP and dual enrollment options at Wahlert Catholic High School."

“I am so thankful for the solid AP and dual enrollment options at Wahlert Catholic High School. If one assumes the average cost of tuition/room/board/fees/books at college is $30,000 per year, we have more than broken even when looking at Wahlert tuition paid over four years versus the amount of college credit our son is graduating from Wahlert with. He will come into college with 41 credits from AP and college classes. 10 of them are from AP Spanish alone. All of freshman year and half of sophomore year are complete before setting foot on campus thanks to these offerings. And this doesn’t even take into consideration the scholarships earned from being academically well prepared at Wahlert. We are thankful!”

"On my first day at Wahlert, everyone made me feel really welcome. "

“When I first started at Wahlert, I was really nervous. I didn’t know what to expect; it was all so new. I went from being in a class of 13 to a class of 125. On my first day at Wahlert, everyone made me feel really welcome. In every class that I walked into people would introduce themselves and tell me that I could sit with them at their table. I couldn’t believe how caring all of the students were. All the teachers introduced themselves and welcomed me to Wahlert. I was amazed at how nice everyone was and I am really glad I made the choice to come to Wahlert. “I also decided to try personalized learning. It was something new for high school, and at first, I had a lot of questions. Once the school year started and I got to try it out for myself, I was really enjoying it. I got to go as fast as I wanted, and I loved it; I didn’t have to wait before I could move to another subject, and there’s extra content if you want to learn more about a subject. If you want help on a section, the teachers are always willing to talk to you to help you understand and give you feedback to improve. I like that they are always trying to improve the platform and make it better for the teachers and the students. You can tell that they really care about each student and want them to be successful. “Since joining Wahlert, I have made some great friends and some great memories, and I don’t have any regrets!”

"Sydney will have the opportunity to obtain a Masters degree in 4 years because of her accelerated Spanish language and will study abroad for a semester."

'We want to express the thanks and praise we have for Our Lady of Guadalupe. Both Sydney and Samantha have participated in the Spanish immersion program. As Sydney prepares to enter college next fall we have found a school that is excited to accept her into their Spanish program as a double major! Their professors are extremely excited to have her join their program. Sydney will have the opportunity to obtain a Masters degree in 4 years because of her accelerated Spanish language and will study abroad for a semester. We could not be more proud of our girls and the program. Amazing teachers and life-long relationships! God Bless you all for taking this leap of faith."

"There are no substitutions for effort and respect."

“One thing I hope my students learn from their experience in my classroom is that there are no substitutions for effort and respect. I don't believe that I could choose one most rewarding part of my job as a teacher. If I had to choose a few: seeing students make progress, seeing students becoming aware of their progress, being able to work with Mazzuchelli's dedicated faculty, staff, and administration, being able to collaborate with the eighth-grade team of teachers, being able to include faith in classroom discussions, and, not to sound too sentimental, being able to teach in the same building in which I attended school and in which my dad taught for 47 years."

"We're kind of like a family here."

“The size of the school just works so well for everyone. You get to know everyone in your class, and you get to know your teacher on a personal level and have relationships with them that you probably wouldn’t have at a bigger school. I pass people in the hall, and I know the freshmen and the sophomores; I feel like I know everyone here, and I like being able to know people. We’re kind of like a family here.”

"Learning is a great gift."

"Learning is a great gift and faith development is an essential truth of the teen years. Young people grow in all areas of life during their high school experience. It is a hope that freshmen have the experience of a safe and open environment to ponder and reflect on authentic questions as they live their daily life and situations."
