Who We Are

Mission Statement

​The mission of Greensburg Central Catholic Junior-Senior High School is to promote the formation of students within a community of faith.   

We are a diocesan co-educational school providing a rigorous and comprehensive curriculum centered on the teachings of the Catholic Church, incorporating the Gospel values of Jesus Christ, and designed to meet a variety of academic, spiritual, and social needs.  

As a college preparatory Catholic school, inclusive of grades 7-12, we educate students of diverse faiths and backgrounds.  Our students will learn to integrate critical reasoning, scholastic achievement, and the search for truth within the convictions of Catholic teaching rooted in faith, moral responsibility, and service to the global community. 

Vision Statement

​Our students will be educated and impassioned to lead extraordinary lives in the Catholic tradition.​

Values Statement

And when the centurion, who stood there in front of Jesus, saw how he died, he said, “Surely this man was the Son of God!” Mark 15:39

Centered on the charism of the centurion, who professed the truth of Jesus Christ at the foot of the cross, Greensburg Central Catholic Junior-Senior High School strives to form Christian disciples and to create an educational community where the pursuit of truth is critical for learning and moral development.

As a community of faith, our school is committed to helping students live the harmony between our Gospel values and our daily conduct as committed Christian disciples seeking salvation.

• Faith: We live the Gospel values, as faithful Catholic stewards who act with courage and inspire with leadership.
• Dignity: We celebrate the dignity of every human person through our empathy and respect.
• Integrity: We foster integrity evident through accountability, discipline, and honesty.
• Justice: We advocate justice tempered by compassion and righteousness.​
