Billings Central Catholic High School

September 16th, 2022

Dear Parents, Staff, and Students:

We are officially off and running! Be prepared – the next couple of weeks will turn into an all-out sprint. Thanks to everyone who has already helped us get off to a great start. Parents, staff, and students all seem to be bringing a positive attitude and high expectations into the 2022-23 school year, and the enthusiasm has a positive impact on everyone. Great parents, staff, students, community support and His presence are the foundation of an outstanding school. We are truly blessed! It is going to be another World Class year at BCCHS.

We are excited to have our new parking lot available… finally! With the parking lot now open, we will return to having anyone entering the school after 8:10 come through the locked, buzz-in door in the courtyard. Please park in the new visitor parking in front of the iron gates that mark the courtyard entrance and enter there. All other perimeter doors will be locked throughout the day, and our students and staff are instructed not to open these doors for anyone trying to get into the school.
