Our Mission
Central Catholic High School makes Jesus known and loved.
We educate the whole person for college and for life, with particular care for the least favored and those in need.
Our Declaration of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Central Catholic High School seeks to uphold anti-racist practices and promote empathetic attitudes to reflect a just and inclusive community that celebrates the identities, gifts, and dignity of its members. We condemn thoughts, words, and actions that harm one’s humanity. We call each other to follow Jesus’ example of love.
The Full Declaration of Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion
Central Catholic High School celebrates the identities, gifts, and dignity of all of its members as each enhances the excellence and enriches the traditions of our school.
We seek to uphold anti-racist practices and promote empathetic attitudes to reflect a just and inclusive community.
We condemn thoughts, words, and actions that harm one’s humanity.
We honor the experiences of all individuals and groups, including but not limited to: race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, ability (physical and learning differences), gender, sexual orientation, age, and socioeconomic background.
As a Marist school rooted in God’s love and dedicated to emulating Jesus’ radical ways, we strive to be in solidarity with each other. We share St. Marcellin Champagnat’s belief that “to bring up children properly, we must love them and love them all equally.” Through a commitment to consistent reflection and honest dialogues, we will further educate ourselves as agents of justice and change to ensure a welcoming environment for all who study, work, and visit this institution.
As one Central family of students, alumni, caretakers, faculty, staff, administrators, and Marist Brothers, we recognize that:
• Jesus lives in every person,
• growth comes with vulnerability,
• everyone holds implicit prejudice and has room to grow,
• humility, patience, and accountability are at the core of challenging one’s self and each other,
• the commitment to inclusion, diversity, and equity is an ongoing collective and individual effort.
Guided by the vision of Saint Marcellin Champagnat, we are inspired to make the world a better place by serving and leading.
Marist Family Spirit distinguishes who we are and is the cornerstone of our Central Catholic community.
