Mission Statement

The Mission of the Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Charlotte is to proclaim the Good News of the Gospel and to provide a religious and academic program that allows each student to develop spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, physically and socially, so that each is prepared to live and serve in a changing society as a self-respecting citizen.

The Holy See's Teaching On Catholic Schools

Five essential marks of a Catholic School

1. Inspired by a supernatural vision
2. Founded on Christian anthropology
3. Animated by communion and community
4. Imbued with a Catholic worldview throughout its curriculum

We Provide a quality Catholic education at 19 schools throughout the Diocese of Charlotte.

These schools are in 3 separate formats:
