This grading system has proven to be a real incentive to our more capable students who are willing to take on a more difficult course load than is required of the typical college-bound student. Juniors and seniors have the opportunity to participate in weekend retreat experiences which are conducted by the school or diocese. Throughout the school year, all students participate in prayer experiences and exercises that foster spiritual awareness and growth. The Guidance Department works with students who have personal and academic needs. Programs are administered in testing, career alternatives, personal guidance and college counseling.
Assistance ranges from group sessions to individual counseling.
All activities are open to freshmen for participation. The student must be willing to apply himself. Freshmen are accepted on the basis of a placement examination with serious regard to the recommendation of their grade school. Transfer students are accepted on an individual basis after consideration of their high school transcripts. Fees include yearbook, newspapers, home athletic contests, lab fees, I.D. cards, etc.
