Levels of Study
Our Lady of Lourdes Regional High School offers two levels of study, distinguished by the comprehension and depth of subject matter exploration. These levels are both designed to lead to higher study. These tracks or levels are Academic and Honors. Honors courses are offered to students in English, foreign languages, mathematics, science, and advanced computer applications. The Fine Arts/Music Department activities include individual lessons, chorus, and liturgical singers. The Art Program offers instruction in various media such as drawing, watercolors, oil painting, sculpture, graphic design, and art history. The Computer Program offers introductory and advanced courses using Office 2007 and Windows XP Operating System on IBM desktop computers.
Values-based Education
Lourdes is dedicated to developing promising young adults. This means that, in addition to providing a stimulating intellectual and physical environment, Lourdes places great emphasis on the students’ spiritual and moral growth. Liturgies, devotions, and opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation are scheduled on a regular basis. Classroom discussions in Religion focus on contemporary moral and social issues. We believe our graduates gain a more complete understanding of themselves and their world and are awakened to the contributions they can make as a result of a values-based education.
Faculty & Staff
As teachers, in all disciplines, our faculty seek to be exemplary models of faith. Among our current faculty, many hold master’s degrees and more than half have been teaching for more than ten years. They bring a wealth of experience to a strong academic program while conveying Christian values and a strong sense of community.
