Student-teacher ratio is a statistic that has been getting attention for many years. The assumption around this ratio: the smaller the ratio, the better the school.
When we determine our ratio, we include every staff member who teaches classes or works directly with students to help them achieve their academic goals, such as guidance or intervention staff. Using this criteria, Bishop Watterson's student-teacher ratio is 11:1.

Bishop Watterson has been providing a variety of services for students with identified learning needs and our Dominican Program continues to be an area of growth and evolution for us. This year we are happy to announce that our Intervention Lab has a new home in room 325 and the number of intervention specialists has increased to four. May St. Dominic, St. Pius X and St. Thomas Aquinas guide us as we continue to expand these services!
