Admissions
"The excellence that is synonymous with Catholic High School is found in every aspect of the school. While the rigorous academic curriculum is very important, it is the Gospel values that are imparted to each and every student of CHS that make this school truly unique. Perhaps the most important lesson learned at Catholic is that of brotherhood. An entering class arrives as 250 individuals but leaves as one family."
Sean Saxon/Class of 2011/Catholic High School
In accepting students we look for young people who can profit from and contribute to the educational and religious mission of the school. While accepting the fact that there is a limit to what any one institution can do, we believe that our schools are to serve a broad cross section of students with regard to both academic ability and socio-economic status.
