Education Founded in Excellence
West Catholic is proud of its history of academic excellence. We offer 19 Advanced Placement courses that are taught on campus and many students earn dual-enrollment credits through a partnership with Aquinas College also offered on site. More than 60% of our students leave high school with college credit. Last year alone, West Catholic students took over 350 AP exams. The class of 2022 had 95% of its graduates attend college.
Besides the fact that our students are so well prepared for college, they have more contact with our full-time school counselors. We are proud to have a counselor-to-student ratio of ~1:235. That is a ratio you will rarely find in a high school, considering the national average is 1:482.
