Montini Catholic High School is a family-centered, co-educational, college preparatory high school, rooted in the life and teaching of Jesus Christ as emulated by St. John Baptist DeLaSalle and committed to the education of the whole person. Our LaSallian tradition recognizes all persons' sacredness and educates students of diverse abilities, cultures, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Each student is expected to participate in an educational setting that will emphasize the message of Christ, service, and responsibility to Church, family, and community. Montini has a religious purpose and an academic purpose. The religious is primary, as the religious nature of the school pervades the entire school community. Montini works to create a Catholic educational community in which faith, culture, and knowledge are integrated among teachers, students, and parents in a spirit of cooperation. Montini's programs attempt to challenge and encourage each student's spiritual, intellectual, personal, cultural, social, and physical development. Montini Catholic strives to make each student's educational experience unique to their needs. Our students graduate ready to face their collegiate years through a rigorous academic program, paired with service learning and faith-based education. 74% of our faculty hold master's degrees or higher. Many are coaches, moderators of clubs, and participate in areas of campus ministry and service. 13 faculty & staff members are alumni of MCHS and have returned to their alma mater. Our curriculum allows students to take courses within four levels: Signum Fidei, College Prep, Honors, and Advanced Placement. These levels are determined by Placement Exam results, Proficiency Exam results, and Grade School and High School teacher recommendations. Students are not put into one single track but are placed into classes that engage and aid in learning at their level. Choosing a high school can be challenging. We believe that education must address the whole student's needs—heart, mind, soul, and body. To do this, we know that each student's high school experience has to be as unique as the student. At Montini Catholic, we strive for our students to discover their talents and weaknesses and then help them move forward by challenging them academically and spiritually and instilling in them core Christian values. Montini Catholic students excel in and out of the classroom. Through classes, extracurriculars, athletics, and service, our students create their own experiences. Extracurricular activities, clubs, and organizations play a vital role in the overall development of the Montini student and contribute significantly to the quality of life in and around the school. The relationships and camaraderie our activities foster and the general feeling of goodwill they create help give the school a distinct personality and a vitality that carries over into all active lives. Because of the small size of the school and the many activities that we offer, 92% of our students are involved in at least one extracurricular endeavor. We strive to ensure that students graduate as well-rounded students who are active in various activities and will continue to remain active throughout their collegiate years. View full school
