The Charleston Catholic School, born out of a Catholic identity, emphasizes spiritual, educational and individual values. CCS serves the families from the downtown parishes and those in the greater Charleston area who desire Catholic education. The dedicated faculty stresses parent-teacher-student-parish interaction in a family-oriented school setting. CCS welcomes families of all ethnic and religious backgrounds.
Each child is encouraged to develop his/her own spiritual identity within the Catholic tradition especially in the areas of moral development, decision making and spiritual growth.
Each child is challenged to discover his/her own academic excellence through creativity, inquiry and critical thinking. The opportunity to integrate imagination and discovery is offered in the Fine Arts programs. Physical education and a strong extracurricular athletic department help to contribute to the child’s total development.
Each child will grow to understand the importance of self discipline, responsible decision making and respect for self and others.
The child whose self-esteem benefits from these spiritual, educational and individual values will become a strong, academically sound individual who lives a Christian life of service.
