Canongate Officially Recognized as an Affiliate Catholic High School by Bishop Jugis

“This affiliate status recognizes the good and faithful work of Canongate’s leadership and faculty in providing an authentically Catholic, integrated and robust curriculum that allows for the proper formation of students towards salvation and sainthood.”

Inspired by the Church’s call to engage in the New Evangelization, a small group of lay Catholics in 2013 opened the doors of Canongate to support and expand Catholic education in the western part of the Diocese of Charlotte.  Now, after nine years of growth, prayer, and dialogue with priests and Diocesan leadership, Canongate Catholic High School will pursue its mission with the formal blessing of Bishop Jugis.

Please take a moment to read the letter which is linked here.  We appreciate your faithful support and hope this news will encourage you as much as it has encouraged us.  You will see in the letter an invitation from the Diocese to attend a Ceremony at St. Barnabas on Wednesday, May 25th.  We too wish to express our desire for you come and celebrate with us.  Your presence would be an honor.  

Since Canongate will remain administratively and financially independent of the Diocese, we request that you continue to support the bishop’s newest school regularly.  The scholarships we offer and the growth we are pursuing will still be based in the generosity of the community. Canongate’s current matching fundraising campaign extends through May 25th.st.
