Our schools are grounded with the teachings and principles of the Catholic faith. Students learn and receive sacraments, attend weekly Mass, begin each day in prayer, attend spiritual retreats, go on life changing trips like the March for Life and World Youth Day, discuss faith questions with teachers and clergy and women religious, pray for their fellow students, and think every day about how they can help others. It’s this emphasis on faith that helps our students to think and live selflessly, put on the face of Christ to those in need, and be a role model to others.
Our high school students perform thousands of hours every year of service hours in their communities. Our elementary schools raise money and food donations for organizations and people in need. Whether it’s helping stock food pantries, supporting crisis pregnancy centers, hosting toy drives, and volunteering in soup kitchens, homeless shelters, or visiting the sick and elderly, our students in all our schools have a sense of service engrained in their heart, and they are called to live out that service in their communities.
Our students learn in a close-knit classroom experience. Our professional teachers and staff have shown a unique ability to connect with students due to the lower student to teacher ratio and an environment that is always grounded in faith. That has resulted in our students continually scoring higher on tests compared to their peers in public schools.
Our schools provide students with the opportunities to explore their passions in the arts through theater, musicals, band, choir, and dance. They can also participate in numerous clubs, including: robotics, chess, broadcasting, scholastic bowl, art club, National Honor Society/Junior National Honor Society, debate, science, speech, drama, engineering, pep club, foreign language clubs, math team, speech competitions, photography, and science fairs.
Our schools offer sports programs to both males and females. Many of our schools are consistently competing in regional and state championships and are known statewide for their athletic prowess. Many of our high school athletes receive scholarships for their talents developed through their Catholic school.
Each year, our seven high schools receive tens of millions of dollars in scholarship money. The 2019 graduating class was offered $39,316,992 in scholarships. Our students are attending prestigious universities around the country such as the Universities of Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Texas, Alabama, Kentucky, University of Notre Dame, Baylor, Ava Maria University, and Benedictine University.
The average ACT score is consistently higher than the state average.
Nearly 100,000 hours of service hours are performed.
100% of our seniors graduate compared to 85% of students across the state who graduate in four years.
Catholic Education is important because Catholic School students learn the life-skills they need to keep God present in their daily lives. Whether it be with their teachers, peers, family, or the world around them, students learn to apply what they have learned about God’s love and grace. Catholic Education is much more than just a school experience based on academics. It instills morals, teaches faith, and the power of prayer. Catholic School students are given the foundation they need to go out in the world and make a difference.
