The Catholic High School of Baltimore
Welcome! Choosing the right high school is about finding a community where a young woman will be challenged, supported, and inspired to become her very best self. At The Catholic High School of Baltimore, we are proud to offer a challenging and engaging academic program that prepares students for success in college and beyond while encouraging them to discover their passions and strengths. Rooted in the Franciscan tradition, we are committed to educating the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. We nurture confident, compassionate young women who are guided by faith, service, integrity, and respect for others—and develop leaders who will make a meaningful difference in their communities and throughout the world. Beyond the classroom, students enjoy a rich and vibrant experience through competitive athletics, diverse clubs and activities, leadership opportunities, the arts, and service programs. Every student is encouraged to explore her interests, build lasting friendships, and develop the skills needed to achieve her goals throughout her life. What truly sets our school apart is the joyful culture that fills our hallways each day. Ours is a community where students are known, valued, and celebrated; where sisterhood thrives; and where young women are empowered to grow with confidence, purpose, and hope. We invite you to discover all that our school has to offer and join a community dedicated to helping every young woman learn, lead, serve, and flourish. Warm regards,
Ms. Natalia Mistichelli ʼ90 President
