They integrate CRT into their curriculum especially in their required social justice class for seniors. Alumni who went there need to realize that current students are not having the same experience as they did.

It’s “college prep”, most students end up in college which is a stat their very proud of. No stats on how many actually finish within four years. Discourage military service even though there are probably more benefits to be had from that at present day. Bachelors degrees are seriously devalued from what they were years ago and this school will just help you contribute the university industrial complex.

Antithetical to Catholic teachings! Why can't a priest and a group of pro-life kids start a Students for Life chapter, while a club about "empowerment" advocates for abortion rights? Why do students get away with tearing down posters that simply say "Respect life?" Why does this "CATHOLIC" school allow the bullying of kids who express a pro-life position?

Not worth paying for at all. Snobby cliques.

Terrible. Would not recommend this school to anyone. Students get expelled for certain behaviors but if athletes get into trouble it is always mitigated to being something else.

Excellent school on all levels! This school has it all, challenging classes, community service, school spirit, outstanding sports programs, strong arts programs and a strong belief in treating one another with kindness and respect!

I graduated from Gonzaga Prep in 2014. Having attended G-Prep for 4 years, there are so many great ascents worth mentioning. As a student, you feel welcomed into the community, have opportunities to further your faith, and have great potential to meet life-long friends, while attaining great education. Also, if you are interested in playing sports, Gonzaga Prep is always a top-notch competitor. In the past 4 years, the basketball program has won 3 State titles, the football team has had several State appearances, and the soccer teams have always been in the top of the league. I would recommend Gonzaga Prep for EVERY incoming freshman.

As my wife says, "G Prep is worth mortgaging your house for." Fortunately, Prep's Fair Share tuition program ensures that you pay tuition based on your income, so you hopefully won't have to mortgage anything. Our two sons graduated and earned nearly $1,000,000 in scholarships combined. I am paying 0$ to send my two sons to college. That's right: free college tuition. One of my sons went to a good Mead School District public high school for a year, and he said that the teachers are better at G-Prep, there's more college prep attention at Prep because the public school counselors are only concerned with dropouts, you can walk out of his public school any time and not get caught, there's a better sense of community at G Prep, everybody knows his name, etc. There are even parents from North Idaho who drive their kids one hour or more to get their kids to this school. So, it's worth it. You won't be disappointed.

If you are interested in a Christian faith based, academically rigorous environment that competes with the top schools in the state in 4A sports, there is no better choice. Understand that the tough grading system may put your child at a disadvantage compared to the public schools and there is no 5pt. A for AP courses. Despite this, our children have been blessed to receive top quality education, are well prepared for college, and living a life supported by a community of believers that seek to spread the Good News.

Gonzaga Prep has not disappointed our family. We have two children now at Prep and they are thriving. There are enough students to choose like-minded friends and make new ones. They have found their niche and don't like to miss school, which is unusual. The teachers and staff care about the students ensuring that they succeed.
