OUR MISSION
To teach Gospel values in an environment of academic excellence according to Catholic tradition and the spirit of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart.
ABOUT CHS
We believe in a holistic approach to education. We believe that young men learn from the total experience of the school setting. We attempt to address the religious, academic, social, psychological, physical, and cultural development of students through our programs, classes, service, and faith.
ADMISSIONS
In admitting students, we look for young people who can profit from and contribute to the religious and educational mission of CHS, which aligns with the mission of the Brothers of Sacred Heart.
ACADEMICS
Catholic High School strives to create an atmosphere for learning that provides each student with opportunities to thrive. Caring educators and one-of-a-kind course offerings allow students to explore their passions while excelling in academics.
ATHLETICS
Catholic High School is home to champion athletes on and off the field. The real achievement of our athletics program is discipline, camraderie, and the physical fitness of our community's future leaders.
STUDENT LIFE
CHS offers a wide variety of quality extracurricular activities as a way of enhancing our holistic approach to education. This allows students to take pride in their school and in themselves, while increasing their receptivity to formation and promoting their success in all aspects of life.
FAITH FORMATION
Faith formation at CHS is designed to form young men to live their lives for others in the spirit of the Gospel. An important element involved in this effort is service to others, not only at school, but also in the larger community.
