International Baccalaureate Programme
Central Catholic was named an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School on February 6, 2009. The IB Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum, primarily aimed at students aged 16 to 19. Completing the program leads to qualification that is widely recognized by the world’s leading universities.
Central Catholic is the first school in Northwest Ohio and the first Catholic school in the entire state of Ohio to earn this distinction. Currently, there are 2,585 schools in 134 countries offering this program, and Central Catholic joins a select group of less than 20 Catholic schools in the country to feature it.

Famous quotes containing the word programme:
“The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
