Our typical school day consists of a homeroom period followed by seven class periods. Period 5 is when lunch is held and therefore, is longer than the rest. All students take seven classes and are scheduled to be in a particular class period at all times. There is no "free time" and once they arrive for the day students are not permitted to leave the building until the end of the class day at 2:05 pm.
Roselle Catholic offers the following courses listed below. Those designated with a "+" include Honors sections. Courses designated "AP" are Advanced Placement courses specifically approved by The College Board and are the equivalent of a college course in that subject matter. Additionally, we offer courses through the "Virtual High School," which you can read more about here.

AP & HONORS
All of our courses in the core areas, as well as Art, offer Honors sections, which feature advanced material and heightened student responsibilities. Students in Honors sections receive a weighted grade that reflects these additional commitments. Selection for Honors sections is based on student achievement in previous related coursework and teacher recommendations.
Additionally, Roselle Catholic offers a number of Advanced Placement (AP) courses approved by The College Board. The College Board is a non-profit organization that controls the designation " Advanced Placement" and authorizes its use where a high school course meets stringent standards in content and instructional methodology. Given those high standards, Advanced Placement courses are deemed at least the equivalent of a freshman college course, and so many colleges give credit or other consideration for an acceptable performance on Advanced Placement examinations, which are prepared and graded by The College Board at the end of every school year.
