Research Bishop Ward High School private Schools in Kansas City, Missouri

“I had a choice of sending my son to District 500 public school, but there was too much gage population that I sent him to a Catholic School. He was unwilling, but once there he loves it. The most said is that every one respects each other. The senior you have gain the responsibilites and respect of your peer, including the freshman. He said that the seniors were open and no fights, name calling, just fun and educational. They have put him in the route of maturing and learning at his level with challenges.”

“I am an african-american graduate of Bishop Ward. It is an AWESOME school and the faculty is very much elite if I must say so myself. If a student felt that the work was not challenging enough the faculty could ALWAYS tweak it to satisfy the varying academic levels. This I applaud because Bishop Ward prepared me enough to go on and acquire my Bachelors degree and a Masters degree. Though I don't have any children right now, I will definately be sending them to Bishop Ward in the future. Bishop Ward may not be as modern as other schools but all CYCLONES know that it is not the building(though it is a historic landmark) that makes an elite school. Instead it is all the learning, faculty and students inside. Ward is definately a family that I will give back to for years to come. GO CYCLONES!”

“Personally, I do not believe that this school is worth the money that it costs to go to. The school work is not challenging and it is extremely easy for students to merely slide by. There are some wonderful teachers there, don't get me wrong, but as a whole, the faculty is a joke and the hardest assignments given in a lot of my daughters classes are 4 to 5 page packets with simple worksheets. The building is old and does not have the advantages that a modern building has like air condtioning and good science labs. There also seems to be a pretty bad drug problem at the school that no one can seem to solve. From what my daughter has told me, all anyone wants to do is party. If I had it to do all over again, I would not waste the money.”

“My daughter is now a senior at bishop ward and will be leaving soon but she has been involved so much and is able to have that one on one relationship with her teachers, this school is great to send any young adult to.”

“Bishop High School is great. I go there and they are kind. Every one treats each other with respect.”

“I think Bishop Ward has a great community feel. They know how to make everyone feel welcome and feel like a part of the great school.”
