Conwell-Egan Catholic has a history that is rich in tradition, spirit, and community. We continue to build upon a strong foundation, built on the idea that education is not solely based on grades.

CEC offers a comprehensive, college-preparatory curriculum, including Honors and Advanced Placement (AP) level coursework.
The Center for Student Leadership is Conwell-Egan's newest initiative to help students discover and develop their leadership skills. The CSL will provide one-of-a-kind programs that both challenge and reward CEC students.
The arts are a reflection of humanity and the CEC Fine Arts program aims to give students the opportunity to better understand themselves and the world around them.
From freshman to senior year, our students participate in a myriad of activities, clubs, community service projects and more where the main purpose is to make you feel "at home" here at CEC.
The main Patron Saint of our School is St. Francis of Assisi. He was known for his humility, his joy, and his witness to Jesus Christ through his actions.
St. Francis was born in Assisi, Italy in the 12th century. He was away from the Church in his youth but received a call from God to go and rebuild the Church while living a life of poverty. He gave up a life of luxury and wealth to go and serve God.
We as Conwell-Egan Catholic Eagles strive to follow the example of St. Francis of Assisi by being humble, sharing joy, and serving God in our lives. We celebrate St. Francis of Assisi on his feast day, October 4th, but we strive to follow his example daily.
St. Francis of Assisi was instituted as our Patron Saint thanks to the instrumental dedication of the Franciscan Friars of the Third Order Regular (TORs) of the Sacred Heart Province. They were instrumental to our founding in 1957, having 7 of their friars on our staff. They showed us what it meant to live like St. Francis and we strive to emulate their example of peace and humility.
