School Profile
Our Mission Develop Disciples of Christ, Accreditations
We are proud that Norwalk Catholic School was the first Catholic K-12 school in the state of Ohio to receive accreditation from the OCSAA.
AP Courses/PSEOP Classes The SPH curriculum includes two Advanced Placement (AP) courses: AP U.S. Government and Politics and AP English Literature and Composition. Students who wish to take an AP class cannot have an “F” in any subject on their grade card during the year prior to taking the class, need to have an A in the prerequisite classes, and obtain teacher permission. All AP students are required to take the AP exam, where the scores can range from a 1 to a 5. Scores of 3 orhigher are eligible to receive college credit through the individual college the student attends. Grades in these classes are figured on a 4.6 point scale to provide a weighted award because of course difficulty.
