High School Yearly Rotation for Future Planning: (Each year has two dual tracks, choose 1 class per category. See Course Catalog for Rotation planning.)
****Because of the dual track system, this is a 4 year program for high schoolers. If more explanation is necessary, please contact a director, and we’d be happy to walk through the process for 9th-12th grade.
We look forward to providing outstanding Catholic classes and fellowship for our high schoolers! Thank you for sharing your students with us.
In Christ through Mary,
The WS High School Team
