Cathedral High School is a private, Catholic college preparatory high school in Indianapolis, Indiana, United States. There are 1,250 students in grades 9 to 12. It once was located within the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis, and was run independently by the Brothers of Holy Cross. The school was founded as a boys high school by the Brothers of Holy Cross in 1918. In the 1970s, with the departure of the Brothers, a non-profit trust was developed by Robert V. Welch, other parents and a lay board in an effort to keep Cathedral alive. As part of that change, the school moved from its longtime home in downtown Indianapolis to its present location at 56th and Emerson streets, the site of the former all-girls Ladywood St. Agnes Academy. This change also facilitated the admission of girls to Cathedral High School. The original location of the school at 1400 North Meridian Street is today the headquarters for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Indianapolis. On September 13, 2011, Cathedral celebrated its 93rd birthday and was formally re-affiliated with the Brothers of Holy Cross. ==Academics== The school offers several levels of academics, including Advanced Placement (one of only 14 schools in the state of Indiana) and International Baccalaureate. Cathedral is a college preparatory school. Cathedral was honored as a Blue Ribbon School in both 1988〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Cathedral Awards and Distinctions )〕 and 2004.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 format = PDF )〕 There are 11 academic departments providing more than 188 course offerings. Three instructional levels are offered-honors, academic and college preparatory-as well as honors-level independent study in nearly all disciplines. Emphasis is placed on technology in the classroom. In 2012, Cathedral introduced a nationally recognized 1:1 iPad program. Honors and academic-level English students are required to take two years of foreign language (as listed below). College preparatory English students and students enrolled in the Language Support Program are not required to meet the foreign language requirement, except in unusual circumstances. The Language Support Program is available to meet the special needs of the dyslexic student preparing for college entrance. In this program, courses are taught at the academic level of instruction with appropriate accommodations. * Language Support * Composition 1 * Economics 1 * English 8 * Fine Arts 2 * Foreign Language 4 * Geography 1 * Government 1 * Health Education 1 * Mathematics 6 * Modern Technology 1 * Other Electives 3 * Physical Education 1 * Religious Studies 8 * Science Electives 4 * Social Studies Electives 2 * Speech or Debate 1 * U.S. History 2 Each academic year, approximately 98–99% of Cathedral students matriculate in colleges and universities.〔http://www.cathedral-irish.org/page.cfm?p=13〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cathedral High School (Indianapolis)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
