I have had a great experience at Catholic Central. The student community made me feel welcome, and has truly been life changing. I can guarantee that no highschool in Michigan will better execute the high school experience. The teachers do a phenomenal job at interacting with the class and making learning fun and interesting. The students and parents do a great job at making the school as best as it can be. The facilities also are perefectly tailored to the needs of the students. From each closet, to the field where we dominate in football, each facility is made to perfectly support the amazing experience that recieve by coming here. While the price tag may be quite significant, you cannot truly put a price on the perfect education because it is priceless. Students who come here always have and always will succeed in life because of how flawlessly this school’s legacy and excellence is maintained.
It's harder for me to ask for help, but I can confidently say all teachers and administration are kind and dedicated to guiding confused students to a solution. I believe all the students are involved heavily in both academics and athletics, especially in National Honors Society. This school presents a huge advantage for students in college readiness preparation and leadership roles in our new house system. We have plenty of opportunities to join fun clubs such as D&D, get involved during sports events, and participate in competitive choir and theater/musical programs.
Being a parent, I was very glad that we were able to send our child to Catholic Central especially from a financial aspect from when we went through a time of unemployment. The academics were very excellent and there are many options available from core classes to AP and duel enrollment. Their clubs, athletics and other extracurricular actives offer something for everyone to be involved or not involved if they do not want to. One of the most important aspects of the school is that all the programs include religion and faith-based teachings in understanding the topics and the activities. Their facilities have all been recently updated and their staff are incredible. CC is a blessing and is blessed for being in the Heart of the City!
