Catholic High has instilled in me Christ-centered values, taught me the importance of valuing important traditions, and provided me with an unmatched education inside and out of the classroom that continues to allow me to thrive every day. My time at CHS has provided me with a vision to use my talent and my voice to impact the lives of others. I will always be grateful to be a Panther.

Reed Bellingham

Catholic High is a cherished place for me because it helped me to learn about and love Jesus Christ and the Church He established for our salvation. I also really appreciate Catholic High for the education I received and the friendships that I developed, which have helped to shape who I have become.

Joseph Mitchell

The time spent at CHS provided a educational foundation that set me apart from many of my peers moving forward. Middle and high school is a time where most people are figuring out who they are and who they want to be in life. I truly feel that in my time there I came to an understanding of what justice was and what it is like to be a friend to anyone. The lessons learned in the classroom and in athletics have stayed with me; I even find myself telling the same math jokes to my kids that I heard in the classroom. I surely did enjoy my time at CHS.

Not only did CHS strengthen my Catholic faith but the motto Acta Non Verba has remained a guide for me throughout my life. As a wife, mother, community member, professional, and Catholic, these words remind me to lead by Christ’s example.
