J-Term

 TERM REGISTRATION HAS NOW CLOSED.

Please see Mrs Schmidt in the Counseling Office to address any questions regarding J Term.

 

From January 6 through January 10, Cathedral students will take a break from their usual classes and immerse themselves in a single subject of their choosing.  January Term, or J-Term, will offer our students the ability to explore curiosities and allow for some balance and time to explore things that they may be interested in learning at a deeper level.  This time will also give our students opportunities to immerse themselves in hands-on experiences of applied learning and unconventional teaching that they might not be able to have during the regular school year. We will ignite passions, help direct our students to explore aspirations and interests, and also give some time for our students to be able to breathe. This will also provide our teachers the opportunity to share their unique gifts and talents apart from the subjects they teach at Cathedral.  J-Term classes will be on student transcripts and are a requirement for graduation. However, J-Term will not impact a student's GPA.

*Please note there may be slight adjustments to some of the courses over the next several weeks.*

Seniors, Juniors, and Sophomores have the opportunity to sign up for one five-day course during J-Term. 

All freshmen will have a designated Freshman J-Term that will offer a broad spectrum of experiences. No registration is required for freshmen.
