EXCELLENCE IN ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT

A Catholic education is a challenging education. High standards, strong motivation, effective discipline and an atmosphere of caring combine to foster excellence, and, a high quality of student performance is supported by the evidence.

Catholic School students score significantly above the national averages on standardized testing.
Research shows that because of a greater emphasis on homework and study, Catholic School students develop more effective writing skills.
Catholic High School students attend post-secondary education at a rate in excess of 95% and are more likely to complete their program of studies.
Catholic Schools have an excellent success rate in educating minority students.
While providing a stimulating and demanding education, Catholic Schools give students a high level of individualized attention and personal sharing. This commitment is reinforced by participation in programs for advanced students and also for those experiencing difficulties in reading, writing, and math.
