Catholic Central is truly a one of a kind experience. The culture is great and it's a great community. The teachers really care about you inside and outside the classroom.

Attending Catholic Central has been an opportunity for me as a Latino who I am the first member of my family to attend and later college. Catholic Central allows me to be prepared for college as it's a high school where it prepares you for college; examples being our schedule. Our schedule allows us to have more flexibility than others schools do as we have 5 classes each day and on Mondays only 4. The last three years has been fun meeting people of other cultures and having friends who actually do care of you and the faculty who try to help. As graduation is approaching I can't help but say it was an honor to attend Catholic Central High School the last three years.

I liked the community and the obstacles that I overcame during my time here at CC. It has definitely been a different experience that I wouldn't find any place else and I am grateful for the opportunity to go to school here.

The programs and course offerings extend to those that are high achieving to those that need learning support. They offer just as many...

Best education in West Michigan-- the science and math programs are second to none in the area, and programs such as the Engineering Class and Independent Research Program give motivated students a leg up both in college admissions and their futures. The school consistently ranks highly, if not at t...
