Providence Catholic High School to hold<br />
placement exam for incoming students<br />
Providence Catholic<br />
High School welcomes<br />
all current eighth-grade<br />
students to the Incoming<br />
Freshman Placement<br />
Exam on Saturday, Dec. 2.<br />
Providence Catholic<br />
High School is a college<br />
prep school and challenges<br />
every student academically.<br />
Whether the student<br />
is in Advanced Placement,<br />
honors, college prep or<br />
needs a little assistance<br />
in the classroom, there is<br />
a place for every student.<br />
Providence Catholic ACT<br />
scores are the best of any<br />
school in Will County.<br />
Providence Catholic<br />
students go on to excel at<br />
top tier colleges and universities.<br />
Students receive<br />
personalized college counseling<br />
to make the right<br />
choice. Graduates receive<br />
more scholarship dollars<br />
than any other high school<br />
in the area. It is quite clear<br />
that there is an advantage<br />
to attending Providence<br />
Catholic, often dubbed<br />
The Providence Advantage.<br />
“Our demanding coeducational,<br />
college preparatory<br />
curriculum is evidenced<br />
by the success of<br />
our most recent graduates<br />
who earned scholarships<br />
valued at nearly $40 million,”<br />
President Fr. Richard<br />
McGrath said. “We<br />
offer inclusive service programs;<br />
in fact, our recent<br />
graduates performed in<br />
excess of 25,000 hours of<br />
community service during<br />
their high school careers.”<br />
Not only do the Celtics<br />
experience excellence in<br />
the classroom, but PCHS<br />
students also succeed in<br />
the athletic and extracurricular<br />
arenas. The Celtics<br />
are home to 30 state<br />
championships, 67 state<br />
trophies and hundreds of<br />
regional titles, sectional titles<br />
and conference championships.<br />
The outcomes<br />
of the graduates from the<br />
Class of 2017 demonstrate<br />
the elite and premier education<br />
at Providence Catholic.<br />
“Providing financial<br />
assistance to Providence<br />
Catholic families is a top<br />
priority for the school,”<br />
said Ed Barrett, director of<br />
need-based aid. “Twentyfive<br />
percent of our families<br />
receive some type of financial<br />
assistance.<br />
“In fact, this year the<br />
school has invested, and<br />
$1.6 million was awarded<br />
to our families in needbased<br />
scholarships and<br />
grants, work programs,<br />
discounts, and subsidized<br />
lunches.”<br />
Providence Catholic invites<br />
potential students to<br />
continue the tradition and<br />
become a part of excellence.<br />
Pre-registration is<br />
required for all incoming<br />
freshmen. For information<br />
