A Catholic Tradition of Excellence in College Preparatory Education
Bishop Ready High School's Academic Program
Bishop Ready offers a college preparatory curriculum, with some classes divided according to ability. Advanced Placement, College Credit Plus, and Honors courses are offered throughout the curriculum. Students can choose elective courses which are career-oriented or of a high level of interest to the student.
In addition to the college prep curriculum, Bishop Ready also offers vocational classes and electives that can be of assistance in making career choices. Ready structures classes for students with learning disabilities, enabling those students to participate to the best of their abilities in the Bishop Ready experience.
Our Distance Learning Program allows students at Ready to participate in classes and events off-site; professionals in various fields are available to deliver lectures and hold classes through this program. Distance Learning also allows students from area Catholic elementary schools to take advanced level classes (for example, in math, Mandarin Chinese or Spanish) that are taught by Ready faculty members.
