Academics

Cathedral High School offers a program of study that is appropriate and stimulating.  Courses provide the intellectually rigorous coursework students need as part of an integrated, well-rounded, college preparatory education offered in the Catholic and Lasallian tradition.

 

To be entrusted with the teaching of the young is a great gift and grace of God.

Dear Cathedral Students and Parents,

Welcome to the 2026–2027 school year!

I am excited to begin my 23rd year at Cathedral High School and to welcome you to our Lasallian community. It is a privilege to serve in a school rooted in faith, tradition, and excellence, and I look forward to partnering with you to support your son’s academic journey. I am also blessed to work alongside a dedicated faculty who consistently place the best interests of our students at the center of their work.

Cathedral High School College Preparatory challenges students to meet the rigor of higher education through a seven-period schedule aligned with the University of California “a-g” requirements. Throughout their four years, students are offered a wide range of academic opportunities, including Honors courses, Advanced Placement (AP) classes, UC/CSU-approved electives, and Early ELAC Dual Enrollment courses, while also participating in programs that foster their physical, moral, and spiritual growth.

I look forward to working in partnership with you to ensure that your son’s academic needs and goals are supported. Through ongoing communication, collaboration, and shared commitment, we can help prepare him for the opportunities and challenges of college and beyond.

As we begin the 2026–2027 school year, we do so with gratitude for the legacy of the Christian Brothers and the continued support of our Cathedral community.

Thank you for partnering with us. Our wonderful and dedicated faculty/staff and I look forward to working with you and your son. Thank you for entrusting your sons to our care.

GO PHANTOMS!

Live Jesus in our Hearts! Forever!

Sincerely,

Ms. Sulema Modesto

Dean of Studies
