MISSION & BELIEFS

OUR MISSION

Allentown Central Catholic High School, a Catholic, college-preparatory, co-educational school is committed to educating the whole person. Our tradition of a rigorous academic and extensive co-curricular program encourages students to develop their moral compass and realize their spiritual, intellectual, physical, and creative potential. Our mission is to graduate students who are always faithful to living a life that is committed to faith, equitable justice, integrity, and responsible citizenship.

 

WE BELIEVE...

  • That the Catholic school must integrate faith into the entire life of the student, inclusive of every culture, background, and creed while making the truth of Catholicism known. 

  • That Christian Service provides a transferable way to develop lifelong discipleship by putting the Catholic Christian faith into action.

  • In an active, cooperative involvement and shared responsibility among students, teachers, administrators, parents, and community members. 

  • That teachers must be committed to developing student potential holistically: intellectually, socially, physically, and spiritually in all academic disciplines, and not merely transmitting academic content. 

  • That administrators must provide opportunities for growth and development to ensure a strong, faithful faculty. 

  • That the purpose of a Catholic education is to help the students respond to God’s unique plan for them so that they can become and represent the best version of themselves, and incorporate moral Christian norms into daily living. 

  • That students have tangible goals for academic, social and personal success in a college-preparatory high school that strongly encourages student achievement, mental health and acceptance, fairness, and acceptance. 

  • That active participation in extracurricular activities helps to foster spiritual, intellectual, and social responsibility.

  • That the awareness of mental health plays an important role in the development of our students, our faculty, and our community. 

  • That Catholic Schools should foster an environment which encourages students to communicate and collaborate with others respectfully and appropriately, whether in person or on-line.

 

A graduate of Allentown Central Catholic High School is:

  • A responsible citizen who lives an ethical, moral, and spiritual life who is prepared to respectfully, professionally, and meaningfully contribute to our global society.

  • An individual who promotes and demonstrates respect and professionalism in all aspects of life.

  • An individual who is prepared for the evolving workforce using critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration, information and technological skill sets.

  • A life-long learner who has the skills necessary to be successful in continuing education.

  • One who always exhibits compassion, love, and empathy.

  • Is mindful of how physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being impacts themselves and society.
