Centrally located in the middle of Cuyahoga County, Cleveland Central Catholic (CCC) is a Diocesan owned and operated, co-educational, comprehensive school for students in grades 9 through 12. With an enrollment of about 450 students, CCC is large enough to provide ample opportunities for student activities while also being small enough for each student to be known by name. The school offers a wide variety of activities that provide our students with ways to develop their faith, enhance their curricular and interpersonal skills, and form life-long relationships. Cleveland Central Catholic was formed by the merger of four Roman Catholic Cleveland high schools - St. John Cantius, Lourdes Central, St. Michael the Archangel, and St. Stanislaus. CCC’s first year of operation was the 1969-70 scholastic year.
