Greetings from Cathedral High School’s Counseling Department! 

We have had a great start to Semester 2!  A successful week of J Term allowed our students to land softly into the second Semester - from our Freshman having a blast in the Freshman Experience J Term, to others visiting museums all over Indiana, students all over the world, and many Job Shadowing opportunities, our students experienced experiential learning at it’s best!  

We are now in Semester 2 and it is time to begin to plan for NEXT school year.  Counselors will be helping your students build their courses for the 2025-2026 school year soon.


Go Irish!
  
 
Your Cathedral Counseling Team

This month, Cathedral's Holy Cross Core Value is Diversity and Inclusivity, and it is a fitting reminder for us to give thanks for the gifts that we have received, while remembering those who have less.

See the message from Matt Gring, Our Chief Mission Integration Officer

If you or someone you know are in need of prayer, please submit a community prayer request.
