Dear Holy Trinity Families,


Thank you to all who attended the Holy Trinity Parent Panel Discussion or Open House at Charlotte Catholic High School. We are grateful for the opportunity to strengthen the partnership between our schools and to share more about the Charlotte Catholic experience. We hope these conversations and visits have helped you feel informed and supported as you begin planning the next steps for your student.


Last week, we were delighted to welcome the Holy Trinity 8th-grade class to campus. Students heard from a panel our high schoolers about their experiences and involvement, met members of our administration and counseling teams, toured the building, and ended the morning with our famous ooey gooey cookie!


We look forward to welcoming the 7th-grade class in the spring for the CCHS musical, and we encourage Holy Trinity families to explore our school calendar for additional upcoming concerts, athletic events, and performances. We invite you to experience the vibrant Charlotte Catholic community firsthand.


As you begin making plans for high school, we'd like to share some helpful information and resources to help you become more familiar with all that Charlotte Catholic has to offer.


Academic Overview

Charlotte Catholic offers a rigorous, college-preparatory curriculum designed to help each student find the right balance of challenge and success. We recognize that success looks different for every student, and we are committed to meeting each individual where they are—supporting their academic, spiritual, and extracurricular growth.


  • Our Curriculum Guide provides detailed descriptions of all our courses and outlines departmental expectations for placement. The guide is updated annually to reflect current offerings and program enhancements.


  • The CCHS Profile is a document designed for colleges and universities. It explains our academic requirements, grading scale, course offerings, and student opportunities, as well as information about our graduates and college placements. Colleges use this profile to understand each student’s accomplishments in the context of the opportunities available at Charlotte Catholic.



Counseling and Student Support

The Counseling Department page outlines the services and programming our counselors provide to students throughout high school, from academic and personal counseling to college and career readiness and preparation.
