Marianist+Charism

Marianist Charism =Our Marianist Charism =  Cardinal Wuerl North Catholic High School believes that the education of our students m ust begin with the understanding and use of principles of Christian values in their daily lives. Religious education provides the basic fabric from which young men and women grow spiritually and develop a deeper and richer personal relationship with God. This basis also gives students a foundation for developing respectful relationships with people in the world around them, the environment and themselves.


 * Our mission is to build a caring, yet challenging Marianist school community of faith and learning, using these Marianist charisms:
 * Nurturing a deep personal faith, the faith of Mary, the Mother of Jesus
 * Delivering the highest quality education of the whole person, kindling a love of learning and pursuit of excellence
 * Cultivating and celebrating a diversity of gifts
 * Providing a family spirit of hospitality, participation and belonging
 * Developing a genuine and active concern for the needs and rights of others
 * Instilling habits of observation, reflection, critical thinking and action to shape the future

Together with the Marianist Community of Brothers and Priests, we strive for excellence in academics, fulfillment of faith and sharing in social justice. We are proud to require all students to participate in 4 years of religion curriculum, which include retreats, liturgies and other religious experiences. We encourage students to participate in our Campus Ministry programs, as well.   http://www.marianist.com/education
