I'm a recent alum of KCHS, and I absolutely LOVED the school! The transition into college was seamless for me, and the guidance counselors and teachers did such a wonderful job helping with every aspect of my application/acceptance/decision-making process. Throughout my four years, I didn't have a single teacher I didn't like - they're all fantastic teachers and people :) I can't even begin to explain how many useful life and academic lessons I learned while at KCHS that have made college that much easier! Catholic is a pretty sports-heavy school and I wish there was more enthusiasm and support for the arts/robotics/etc. while I was there, but I know that's not unusual for most high schools haha :) Overall, I think Catholic is a wonderful high school, and I'm so glad I got the opportunity to go there...I definitely wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for the teachers, counselors, and friends I made during my time as a student!
Knoxville Catholic provides students with a quality education that exceeded my expectations with passionate instructors, meaningful relationships and spiritual guidance. It allowed me to find my voice, grow as a student and recognize my individual strengths and talents.
I was first drawn to KCHS by its academic rigor and reputation for excellence. I wanted a school that would challenge me to think for myself, learn through struggle, recognize strengths and areas to grow intellectually and spiritually. Coming from the public school made me nervous about my own ability to succeed, but KCHS provided me with one-on-one academic counseling, spiritual guidance and classes that are tailored to my specific needs. It has prepared me for my future and the provided me with the tools that I need to be successful in college. I hope to begin my duel enrollment classes this next fall while still at KCHS so that I continue to have the support I have come accustomed to.

Knoxville Catholic High School is generally a wonderful choice to send your child to regarding academics. The courses are rigorous yet enjoyable. I'd like to believe that this school elevates the level of learning for their students in order to prepare them for college compared to other schools. The teachers are very easy to form a relationship with; the overall faculty are very accommodating. However, tuition and additional fees can be quite pricy, but you cannot forget that it is a private school. During this pandemic, this school is doing a wonderful job of abiding by guidelines and keeping kids safe.
