Families often ask throughout the admissions season why they should choose a Catholic high school for their child’s education, and in particular why choose Arlington Catholic. I firmly believe that an Arlington Catholic education provides students with the skills to develop into a well-rounded, successful and confident young adult, fully prepared to meet the challenges today’s world presents.
The high school years are a special experience for each student, so choosing the right school can be a daunting task for families navigating through the many options available across the Greater Boston area. We believe that a Catholic education gives students an advantage for life, for it is within a Catholic high school that students receive an education rooted in faith, values, and character development. At Arlington Catholic, our welcoming family atmosphere allows students to feel at home as part of our special AC Community.
An Arlington Catholic education:
Because we see this growth and development each and every day in our classroom and hallways; we hear it from our parents and alumni who bear witness to the impact an AC education has had on them; and we see it every year, as Arlington Catholic continually produces graduates who go off to their college of choice. But, most importantly, we witness it as each graduate leaves with a strong sense of self, and the confidence to explore life with a firm moral compass to help guide them as the go off in the world.
If you are searching for the right fit for your student, a school which will help your student develop into their best self, than look no further then Arlington Catholic. I welcome the opportunity to meet with your family to share with you all that AC has to offer; it truly is a special place!
