Mission Statement

The Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Washington, rooted in Gospel values and the teaching mission of the Catholic Church, are learning communities of faith and service dedicated to educational equity and excellence for all students.

Learning Communities of Faith and Service

A Catholic school can provide your children with the foundation they need to succeed in life. We offer strong academics, faith and values, all within a vibrant and culturally diverse environment. Learn more about our Catholic schools and give your children the gift that lasts a lifetime.

Discover our Catholic schools by using the links on the left side of this page and contacting your area school for a visit.

Catholic high schools: Attend a high school fair in spring and apply in the fall. Visit our high school pages for links to school websites, details on the application process and on-line registration for the High School Placement Test (held in December and early January for students not currently attending a Catholic elementary school).

The Archdiocese of Washington’s new marketing campaign for Catholic schools is taking on a fresh and energizing look.  “Shaping their Future through Faith” began in December on the radio and on websites.  For the month of January, the new ads will appear on the sides and backs of buses throughout all of the archdiocese’s regions.  The clean and engaging ads lift up the visibility of Catholic schools and remind people that Catholic schools are here, excellent and unrivaled.

Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Washington are accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, and over 97 percent of Catholic high school graduates go on to college. Catholic schools are based in the teachings of the Catholic Church, but we welcome students of different faiths.
