Letter from the Morris Catholic High School Board of Trustees Chair We are proud to present the 2023 update of the Morris Catholic High School Strategic plan, sharing what we have completed and will accomplish during the final push over the next five years. Morris Catholic High School is a strong and vibrant school but we also recognize the importance of constantly improving and strengthening our school so we can continue to attract stellar and diverse students and faculty. Since 1957, Morris Catholic High School has delivered an exceptional and individualized education while instilling Catholic values in its students. Over 7,000 outstanding men and women have graduated from our beautiful campus in Denville, NJ. Our school remains small by design which ensures every student receives our full attention. Every faculty who walks through our doors each morning is committed to living the principles outlined in our mission statement: Morris Catholic challenges each student to work to his/her highest potential through a rigorous academic program, an emphasis on service to others, and the formation of the individual’s unique character through the knowledge of the love of Christ. By adhering to these principles, the Morris Catholic community ensures that “every student matters.” With your continued support, this plan will enable us to impart faith formation and academic excellence that has always been the hallmark of a Morris Catholic education.
