FAITH FORMATION
At Archbishop McCarthy High School, we believe that all education must lead to the development of a mature faith and concrete and personal relationship with Jesus Christ through his Church and sacraments. Emphasis is placed on instruction in the classroom, a common prayer life, participation in the Sacred Liturgy and the sacraments and community ministry and Christian service.
MASS
Mass is celebrated in the Chapel several times each week, on Holy Days, and at various times throughout the school year. Students are required to attend monthly all-school Masses. Parents and alumni are welcome. Students serve in music ministry, and as lectors, ushers, altar servers, and Eucharistic Ministers.
