I absolutely love going to CC. I definitely could not imagine going anywhere else for high school. There is no doubt in my mind that I am prepared for college next year. My teachers have all been extremely helpful and I have a relationship with a lot of them. The band program may be small but the community within the band is so supportive and welcoming. The only bad part of attending here is the uniform.

Very good school; however, it is very diverse and some students are pretty conservative. I really enjoy the academics and sports part, but the school's schedule is a little bit very too interesting: all of the carriers force you not to take any outside course like college classes, and there are not too many choices for classes. But overall it is a great school.

I am alumni of Catholic Central High School. This was a high quality school when I graduated back in the early 2000's and I am amazed and proud of where it is today. 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...
