Faculty and staff committed to your academic and personal success
Here at Cathedral, you have a team of committed adults rooting for you, supporting you, and challenging you. Cathedral faculty intentionally chose to teach here for our mission and make sure students don’t slip through the cracks. Cathedral administrators know students by name. Our guidance and wellness offices, our office of student engagement, our academic learning specialist, and our athletic staff all are here with one main priority: to support scholars in achieving success.
“I am so thankful for the opportunities Cathedral has given me. My teachers pushed me to be a better person. Seeing the accomplishments of my classmates really motivated me. My internship with Fidelity helped me to prepare for college and my future.
Coming into Cathedral, I didn’t have the skills of a leader. Now as I enter my senior year, not only have I learned how to be a leader, but I also have goals and connections that will help me reach those goals. Overall, Cathedral has been a great high school experience.”
