Catholic high schools
Religious secondary institutions
Catholic high schools are secondary schools operated by the Catholic Church, typically serving students in grades 9-12.
They combine standard academic curricula with religious instruction, theology classes, and often mandatory Mass attendance.
Most require uniforms and maintain stricter disciplinary codes than public schools.
