Academics

A Judge Memorial education teaches students to succeed in high school and prepares them for life after—whether they take on the rigorous course loads and challenges of university study; the dedication, discipline and responsibility of military life; and/or the demands of career pursuits.

Click here for details about our academic policies.

The Judge faculty works with students to develop critical thinking, logic, creativity, communication, and a strong work ethic through coursework, class interaction and co-curricular activities. Instructors at Judge Memorial Catholic High School believe that learning requires a disciplined atmosphere that fosters both personal freedom and responsibility for one's decisions.

One thing that cuts across the disciplines is a solid foundation in writing. These essential skills are expected for any writing assignment, and there is a school-wide writing rubric.

Since we believe learning never ends, we also have an impressive offering of summer school courses.
