Parent Information Nights
We typically offer three of these information gathering events per year at each high school. Parents are invited to join us at the high school for an evening of presentations and a brief tour. They may ask questions and obtain valuable information. These Information Nights have been a successful tool in helping parents with their decision making process.
7th & 8th Grade Visit
In an effort to familiarize the 7-8th grade students with the offerings at both of our high schools, we invite them to join us at our Junior High Visit. The students will be exposed to many facets of the school and have the opportunity to tour the school. This offers them a chance to feel what a day in the life of a high school student is like. To register for this event, please contact your high school's Admissions Coordinator. For Catholic Central High School, please contact Christine O'Driscoll at (616) 233-5816 christineo'driscoll@grcss.org. For West Catholic High School, please contact Mindy Whiteside at (616) 233-5918 or mindywhiteside@grcss.org. Partner elementary school students will be invited to this event through their respective school.
5/6th Grade Music Fest
This has been a popular event where we showcase the talents of our high school choirs, bands, orchestra and drama department. We offer this experience so that the students may start to feel like they are part of our Catholic Secondary School family.
