OC offers a rigorous academic curriculum that incorporates
critical thinking skills via college-level work,
college-equivalency and advanced placement courses, and challenging
assignments.
As a Christ-centered Catholic high school, OC is committed to an
environment that promotes spiritual formation via classes,
atmosphere, liturgy, and service.
There are over 15 sports available to our students; most teams do
not cut.
There are more than 25 clubs/activities; involvement and
leadership are encouraged!
All students wear uniforms; we encourage creativity and diversity
through individual performance, thought, and expression - not
physical appearance and trappings.
OC students prove their worth each year by performing well on/in
SATs, IOWA tests, AP exams, national foreign language exams,
science competitions; by receiving awards at various academic,
musical, artistic, and athletic events; by gaining admission to
top-ranked colleges and universities; by earning hundreds of
thousands of dollars in college scholarships annually.
With a retention rate of over 90%, OC provides a nurturing, caring
environment where each student feels accepted as a member of a
dedicated school community committed to her growth in spirituality,
scholarship, and service.
