The Three Learning Models

Central Catholic is excited to announce the implementation of our Hybrid Live Instruction Learning Model for the fall.

Our Hybrid Live Instruction Learning Model is a combination of on-campus learning and live, remote learning.

Whether on or off campus, all CCHS students will receive real-time, synchronous instruction.

Central Catholic High School has developed three learning models that each offer a superlative college preparatory education rooted in Gospel values with the health and well-being of our students, faculty, and staff at the forefront.

Each option is a synchronous learning model with live, real-time instruction.

The Learning Models

Each learning model was developed by Central Catholic's 'Return to Campus Advisory' Task Committee, taking into account feedback from parents and students, as well as input from the faculty and staff.

Hybrid Live Instruction

Hybrid live instruction is a combination of on-campus learning and live remote learning.

Students are assigned to one of two cohorts, with one cohort on campus for a week while the other cohort is participating in remote live instruction for that week.

Classes end at 12:05 PM on Wednesdays, providing time for meetings and other programs. All students participate in live instruction each day, alternating weeks between on campus learning and remote learning.

Cohorts

Saint Marcellin Champagnat (founder of Marist Brothers)
- Students with last names beginning with A - L
Saint Thérèse of Lisieux (patron saint of Central Catholic)
- Students with last names beginning with M - Z
