Philosophy of ECHS

Elyria Catholic is a comprehensive high school which emphasizes a college preparatory curriculum. Elyria Catholic encourages the students to engage in extra-curricular experiences that will help them encompass the pillars of the Mission Statement. Our expectation is that upon graduation, an Elyria Catholic graduate will:
  • take an active role in the learning process and realize it is a lifelong commitment.
  • communicate effectively, and think critically in oral and written form.
  • recognize and practice self discipline, have self respect and model both.
  • realize God-given talents and act upon this realization by giving to the community; and
  • value life by making good moral decisions.
Academic Update

In light of the Elyria Catholic Philosophy whereby:
    an Elyria Catholic student will develop self assessment skills and make decisions that stem from seeking out and using information available to them
It has been decided that only students who are on academic probation and students who are receiving a failing grade (F) in a class will receive written notification (academic warning). All students and parents are encouraged to continue to monitor academic progress through the use of K-12 planet and through e-mail correspondence with various faculty members.
