“This position is pivotal for CC. It is about ensuring that our institution is not just diverse but also inclusive. It is about making sure every student, regardless of their background, feels at home and empowered at CC,” Chris stated.
“My student days at Catholic Central were some of the best years of my life. From spirited football games to those enlightening classroom debates, every moment was special. One of my fondest memories was staying after school learning how to become a better orator with Mr. Griffin, which helped lead me into my public speaking career."

“It’s absolutely incredible. If any kid comes here as an 8th grader and tours [the George & Mary Turek Hall of Science], and they have any interest in science whatsoever, they’re going to be begging their parents to come here,” stated Boyle.
“It’s amazing to see that type of thing here at Catholic Central. When I was here, we had rain barrels in the hallway to catch the rain drops. So, to go from that to this is absolutely amazing. It couldn’t have happened to a better institution and a better place.”

Fleece & Thank You
Goodness, discipline, and knowledge. Believe it or not (and I hope you DO believe it), I legitimately say these words on a monthly basis in meetings. These three values were ingrained in me at CC, and I cite the presence of these core values to most of the success I achieve. For as incredible as CC was to ready me for the rigors of college and beyond academically, I am so lucky to have gone to a high school where I was prepared to tackle the world with goodness, discipline, and knowledge as part of my being.
