This school is very welcoming for incoming students. The teachers are always ready to help you in any way you need whether it's academically related or not. There are tons of sports and clubs to get involved with to immerse yourself in the Seton community too! The worst part about the experience is the teachers hop from school to school so you're favorite teacher may be gone the next year. Some attendees aren't consistent with clubs. The lunch is repetitive. Sometimes the schedule doesn't fit your best interest, but there's not much you can do about it when it comes to changing it. The 'college prep' is pretty weak. Getting financial aid isn't too dificult, and there are a lot of scholarship opportunities.

"Light to know. Grace to do."
Elizabeth Seton is an all girls Catholic High School, while going to an all girls school was a new experience, I wouldn't say it was a bad one. It allowed me to get closer with all of my Seton Sisters, as well as because we are a private school I was able to get closer to my teachers because of the small class sizes. This allowed me to get the help I needed as well as encouraged me to get help when needed. For school events such as: football games, homecoming, winter formal, prom, and other school dances we collab with Dematha Catholic High School which is our brother school. While I do enjoy going to Seton, I do wish we were allowed to do more things as a school and have more privileges like public schools do. I am a senior and play on the Varsity Soccer team, and have been since my freshman year. Last year, my junior year, I was one of the four captains on the team. The Elizabeth Seton soccer team has greatly impacted my high school experience and is one of the best things about it.
