The Catholic High School of Baltimore is a private, all-girls, Roman Catholic high school in Baltimore, Maryland. It is located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Baltimore.

Background

Empowered by Gospel values and rooted in the spirit and tradition of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Clare of Assisi, The Catholic High School of Baltimore, a sponsored institution of the Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia, is dedicated to the education of young women in an environment that fosters Christian attitudes of dignity and respect for the human person and all of creation.[2]

Notable alumnae

Stacy Keibler '97: Former professional wrestler and 2nd runner-up on Dancing with the Stars, season two

School Song

The school song was copyrighted in 1951 with words and music by an anonymous Sister of St. Francis. It was later renewed for the 50th Anniversary in 1988 with acknowledgment of the true author, Sister Francis Marie Yocum, OSF.[3]

Our voices tuned by joyous love
   Catholic High, we sing your praise,
   And to you pledge our loyalty
   Through the length of days.
   Our Mother fair you'll always be
   Guiding us right,
   To celestial glory
   And the King of Light
   Catholic High, your grateful daughters promise
   Ever to uphold
   Principles of truth and honor
   As our lives unfold.
   We will strive beneath your sparkling banner
   Green and Gold to glorify;
   Steadfast to our motto,
   Viva Catholic High.
   Alma Mater fair, we're proud of you,
   And your graceful portals blessed
   To keep our "light e'er shining"
   We will do our best
   Knowledge found in you a true ally;
   Your name and fame
   Echo forth your virtues
   And your worth proclaim.[3]
