Academic Excellence
A serious academic environment with strong teaching, high expectations, college preparation, and meaningful pathways for advanced coursework, dual enrollment, and future opportunity.
Faith, excellence, and formation
Oldham County Catholic High School Project
A parent-led effort to explore whether Oldham County and nearby communities can support a new coeducational Catholic high school rooted in academic excellence, personal growth, and serious student formation.
We believe Oldham County families would benefit from another excellent education option close to home: a school where students are challenged academically, known personally, formed in character, and prepared for college, career, service, and adult life.
Purpose
Expanding Quality Education Options
Our community is home to families who care deeply about education, character, faith, and opportunity. Across Oldham County and nearby communities, families are already making thoughtful choices among public, private, Catholic, Christian, and homeschool paths.
This effort begins with a simple question: is there enough family interest and community support to sustain a new high-quality high school option close to home?
The survey is meant to help answer that question honestly. We need to understand student demand, family priorities, tuition realities, transportation needs, academic expectations, and broader community support.
Vision
The School We Hope To Build
The goal is not simply to add another school. The goal is to explore a school with a distinct culture: strong academics, personal responsibility, disciplined habits, meaningful mentorship, Catholic formation, and preparation for life beyond graduation.
The model being explored is a coeducational Catholic high school focused on the whole student: mind, character, purpose, and service.
Personal Growth
A school culture that helps students develop motivation, confidence, discipline, resilience, responsibility, and the habits needed to become capable young adults.
Formation & Character
A Catholic educational vision that takes moral formation, service, family life, and the dignity of each student seriously.
Close To Home
A high school option serving Oldham County and nearby communities, reducing long commutes and giving families another strong local choice.
Interest survey
A Short Survey To Guide The Next Step
We are asking parents, students, parishioners, educators, employers, and community members to share their perspective.
The survey is intended to measure two things: whether there is enough realistic student demand to support a school over time, and whether there is enough broader community support to continue serious planning.
Some questions only appear when they apply to your household. Families with potential students will answer more detailed questions about timing, tuition, transportation, and school priorities. Other community members can still share support, concerns, and interest in helping.
Individual responses will not be publicly identified; results will be reviewed in summary form to guide next steps.
Survey Link Coming Soon
The survey is expected to take about 4-5 minutes.
Student Demand
How many possible students are represented, when they may reach high school, and whether families would seriously consider a new coed Catholic high school.
Practical Feasibility
Location, commute, tuition, financial aid, transportation, school size, and the conditions families would need before a school could realistically serve them.
Community Support
Whether parents, educators, parishioners, employers, and local supporters believe this effort is worth carrying forward.
Status
Where Things Stand
This is an early, parent-led exploratory effort. We are currently gathering survey responses to understand community support, likely student demand, and the practical needs a future school would have to meet.
The results will help us estimate the realistic scale of interest, including whether future planning should consider a phased launch, a smaller initial model, or a long-term school serving 200 or more students. That information will also shape later conversations about possible locations, facility needs, transportation, tuition support, academic programming, and the kind of leadership and partnerships required to move forward responsibly.
This is not yet a final school proposal, an enrollment commitment, or an officially sponsored parish or Archdiocesan project. The goal of this stage is to listen well, measure interest honestly, and determine whether the community wants this idea carried into more serious planning.
