Catholic High School Curriculum - USCCB Aligned & Affordable
✓ The Catholic High School Curriculum Built on the USCCB Framework
Self-Paced Online Learning | USCCB-Aligned | DRE-Approved Substance | Affordable
We were the first high school curriculum created to conform to the USCCB's 2008 "Doctrinal Elements of a Curriculum Framework for the Development of Catechetical Materials for Young People of High School Age." Simple, straightforward, and packed with the substance DREs trust—without the complexity of other platforms.
Why CatechismClass.com for High School?
We were pioneers. In 2008, the USCCB released their high school curriculum framework. We were one of the first—and among the best—to build a complete high school program aligned with that framework. For over a decade, we've been helping families and parishes form young Catholics with solid doctrine and practical faith.
We keep it simple. While other platforms overwhelm with features, collaboration tools, and complex registration processes, we focus on what matters: clear content, flexible learning, and genuine spiritual formation. DREs consistently tell us our curriculum has the substance others lack—without the headaches.
We're affordable. At $25 per year per student (or less for bulk enrollments), you get a complete USCCB-aligned curriculum without the premium pricing of platform-heavy competitors. No textbooks. No hidden fees. Just excellent formation at a price that works.
Your Four-Year Journey
Our complete curriculum follows the USCCB framework with two semesters per grade year:
Grade 9: Discovering Jesus Christ
Semester 1: The Revelation of Jesus Christ in Scripture
Students learn to read Scripture with fresh eyes, discovering the living Word of God, Jesus Christ. They understand the Bible as God's gift to His people and develop a personal relationship with Jesus through the Gospels.
Semester 2: Who Is Jesus Christ?
Moving deeper, students explore the mystery of Jesus Christ—the living Word of God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. Understanding who Jesus is transforms their understanding of who they're called to be.
Grade 10: Understanding Christ's Mission & the Church
Semester 1: The Mission of Jesus Christ (The Paschal Mystery)
Students learn what Christ has done for us through His passion, death, and resurrection. They discover what it means to be a disciple of Christ and how the Paschal Mystery transforms their entire lives.
Semester 2: Jesus Christ's Mission Continues in the Church
The Church isn't a historical institution—it's the living Body of Christ today. Students learn the sacred nature of the Church, how Christ sustains it through the Holy Spirit, and how they belong to something divine.
Grade 11: Faith Foundations & Living as a Catholic
Using Scripture, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Catechism, students explore biblical history and strengthen their faith foundations. Lessons address modern moral issues: gender, sexuality, happiness, and the Church's role in a secular world. Students learn to be "Knights and Ladies" of Christ's Kingdom.
Semester 2: Go Forth to Love and Serve
From creation to the Ascension, students review the great mysteries of faith through the lens of modern life. They tackle abortion, contraception, same-sex marriage, and relativism. They learn how to think clearly as Catholics and why truth matters in a world of opinion.
Grade 12: Living Your Faith & Discerning Your Future
Semester 1: The Journey of a Lifetime
While the world pursues money and ego, young Catholics are called to something higher: speaking truth even when mocked, following Christ even when it costs. Students learn how to defend their faith against heresies and discern God's plan for their lives—not just career, but vocation.
Semester 2: The Journey Continues
The final semester grounds students in Sacramentals, discernment, the Social Kingship of Christ, and Sacred Tradition. They're equipped to be SALT—preserving and proclaiming the treasures of the Faith—and LIGHT, showing the way Home to all their neighbors, building the Kingdom of God.
