Classrooms
The classrooms at Charleston Catholic are thoughtfully designed to support engaging, hands-on learning at every grade level. Our 3K classrooms feature age-appropriate materials and student-directed areas where children can explore, create, and build independence. In our K4 through 4th grade classrooms, teachers use interactive tools to enhance lessons and keep students actively involved. The 1st through 4th grade classrooms benefit from the use of iPads layered into the curriculum. Students in grades 5–8 collaborate with one another and their teachers using school-issued Chromebooks, supporting research, organization, and note-taking. Our Science Lab and classrooms in grades 3–8 are equipped to allow students to easily share their work and presentations. Wi-Fi is available throughout the entire campus to support learning across all spaces.
Auditorium
The Auditorium provides opportunities for students to practice a plethora of skills and sports including soccer, volleyball, and basketball. The Physical Education program is both challenging and rewarding for all students with excellent visual aids in Nutrition and Health. During their special arts classes, the students can make use of the room for movement and drama due to the range of space and facilities. The stage includes a back room for make up and costumes and an excellent sound system. The Auditorium has enough space to contain mobile fold-down tables, which are used in a variety of ways: cafeteria tables, for working on lessons during Aftercare, as seating for plays, performances and assemblies.
Library/Computer Lab
The Library has a collection of approximately 4,200 books and references. The library’s catalog and circulation systems are automated through The Handy Library Manager.
The Computer Lab is located within the Library and consists of 13 computers with Internet access and MS Office software. Students use the computer lab during computer classes and for research purposes.
Art Room
Students take art one to three times a week in a very special, stimulating room dedicated to the visual arts. There they learn about art history and famous artists, as well as putting that knowledge to work in projects. They are also involved in designing and painting the scenery for the Christmas and Spring drama productions.
Music Room
Students in K3 – 2 grade participate in Music Class.
Students in 3rd grade participate in Chorus and they serve as the Choir for weekly School Mass.
Students in 4th grade participate in Beginner Band.
Students in 5th – 8th grades who choose Band as their specialty area participate in Concert Band.
Science Lab
The Science Lab is accessible to all students on campus. The refurbished Science Lab is now equipped for students to participate in experiments which make learning fun.
Sacred Heart Catholic Church
Sacred Heart Church next door to CCS is used for Wednesday School Mass, Stations of the Cross, and other liturgical celebrations. It has been used for classroom rosary devotions and occasionally a quiet place for teachers to pray during their free time.
