The Catholic High School of Baltimore provides access to a full range of technological equipment, software, and programs to students and faculty for educational purposes. The faculty and staff believe strongly in the educational value of this technology and recognize its potential in support of our curriculum and student learning.
One-to-One Technology Program
Technology is fully integrated into all curriculum areas and as part of Catholic High’s technology efforts, each student is equipped with a Chromebook. Our goal in having students use Chromebooks in the classroom is to promote educational excellence by facilitating resource sharing, innovation and communication.
Students are issued their personal device on the first day of classes and turn their device back in on the last day of classes. Students are required to sign a device agreement and once the device, power cord, and case are assigned to the student, the parents or guardians assume responsibility for them, excluding manufacturer defects determined by the Technology Department. Any accidental damage or theft must be reported immediately to the Technology Department. Students are expected to fully understand, and abide by, our Technology Acceptable Use Policy and Chromebook agreement. Here is a fact sheet from our Technology Office.
If you have any questions or concerns about technology or the devices students are issued please reach out directly to our Director of Technology, Mr. Andrew Adams at aadams@thecatholichighschool.org

Christian Community Service Policy
Please thoroughly read the Christian Community Service Policy in order to begin planning service opportunities with your daughter at approved locations. As mentioned in the policy, students are required to complete 20* hours at approved locations. Students must serve at an organization from TCHS' pre-approved categories, found within the Policy, or at an organization listed within our Digital Catalog of approved organizations.
If students would like to serve at an alternative organization, they must first seek approval from Mrs. Teresa Stitz, at tstitz@thecatgolichighschool.org. If at all possible, the Office of Mission encourages students to utilize their summer break to serve the community. Finally, be sure to take a service log with you when serving so that a supervisor can sign off on the hours served.
Catholic High’s students come from over 67 zip codes and we realize that transportation can be a big consideration for families.
