Central Catholic High School celebrates the identities,
gifts, and dignity of all of its members as each enhances the excellence and
enriches the traditions of our school.
We seek to uphold anti-racist practices and promote
empathetic attitudes to reflect a just and inclusive community.
We condemn thoughts, words, and actions that harm one’s
humanity.
We honor the experiences of all individuals and groups,
including but not limited to: race, ethnicity, national origin, religion,
ability (physical and learning differences), gender, sexual orientation, age,
and socioeconomic background.
As a Marist school rooted in God’s love and dedicated to
emulating Jesus’ radical ways, we strive to be in solidarity with each other.
We share St. Marcellin Champagnat’s belief that “to bring up children properly,
we must love them and love them all equally.” Through a commitment to
consistent reflection and honest dialogues, we will further educate ourselves
as agents of justice and change to ensure a welcoming environment for all who study,
work, and visit this institution.
As one Central family of students, alumni, caretakers,
faculty, staff, administrators, and Marist Brothers, we recognize that:
-
• Jesus lives in every person,
-
• growth comes with vulnerability,
-
• everyone holds implicit prejudice and has room to grow,
-
• humility, patience, and accountability are at the core of challenging one’s
self and each other,
-
• the commitment to inclusion, diversity, and equity is an ongoing collective
and individual effort.
