Fake Catholics. Many do not believe in what they preach. I knew a student from the school who had had a child in high school. He had a child and was told multiple times to have an abortion from the Mary of Nazareth circle. He did the right thing fortunately. He had the child and kept up with it. I still meet with him and now after a couple of years he is still with the mother and raising the child. He loves his little boy and they are doing very well. The gossip at the school is terrible. Always someone talking behind your back. It is a very judgmental environment. I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. Close Quote
