Fostering active service through emphasizing the unique value of every person, Paraclete also challenges students to active responsibility and provides a Christian Service Program for outreach to the school community and the community outside it. As an academic institution, Paraclete seeks primarily to prepare students for entrance and success at the college level. The school also provides courses for students not necessarily college bound, maintaining for all a challenge to love learning, to respect science and the arts, to be able to think critically, and to understand values. Paraclete encourages athletic participation in physical education classes and on extramural teams seeking to educate and develop the whole person. The school is committed to both girls' and boys' athletics, with each program careful to be true to the religious and moral values of the whole institution's philosophy.
Social interchange occurs in many ways.
The school encourages care for all and celebration of our common life and interests through participation in student government, dances, plays, and other extracurricular events. While desirous of serving first the Catholic families of the Antelope Valley, Paraclete High School welcomes students from other faiths who are committed to the same essential values and standards. The rich blend of perspectives and beliefs is a cherished part of our identity. Paraclete recognizes the parents as primary educators of their children and reflects the pride of its role of service to God and people, with a committed faculty, and energetic, disciplined student body, and a dedicated, supportive group of parents, alumni, and friends. Participating in the life and mission of the Church, Paraclete High School seeks to do the good things Christ calls us to do as human beings alive to truth and beauty and charity today and in the future.
