Reitz Memorial High School is proud to have a stunning, on-campus Chapel Throughout the years, the Chapel has been enhanced and beautified so that today's students can be given a place of great dignity and beauty in which to encounter the Lord in prayer and in the sacraments. Memorial's Chapel is a place of prayer and worship. While Adoration and prayer take place weekly in our chapel, Masses are celebrated in our Auditorium. During all-school Mass, students, faculty and staff gather together.

After learning the Foundations of Theology and Sacraments as underclassmen, students will learn more about their faith and the faith of others. Upperclassmen, in particular, are able to take classes such as: Introduction to Scripture The Church Catholic Morality The Christian Life Old Testament in Depth Religions of the World Catholic Apologetics Catholic Identity Our Catholic Identity serves as a guiding influence. We will demonstrate Catholic values through services, faith formation, and leadership opportunities. It is our mission to ensure that all graduates hold a moral compass that places God's love, human decency, and goodness above all else. 2022-2025 Strategic Priorities: Provide inviting, inclusive, and student-centered faith formation for all students.

Academics Departments College & School Counseling Resource Accommodations Witting Media Center Daily Schedule & Tiger FlexTime Incognito Instructors Daily Schedule & FlexTime Reitz Memorial runs on an alternate day block schedule that is referred to as White Days and Blue Days. Each student has four 85-minute periods each day throughout the year on alternating days. These White Days and Blue Days have been set in a fixed schedule for the school year. The school day starts at 7:35 a.m. and ends at 2:15 p.m. Tiger FlexTime Announcement from 2022-2023 In addition to the normal block schedule, Reitz Memorial started using a new initiative at the beginning of the 2022- 23 sc hool year called Tiger FlexTime. Each day, our students’ instructional time will end at 2:15 p.m. At 2:20 p.m., students who want to, need to, or are asked to stay, will then report to their location for their FlexTime activity. What is most important to understand about this time is that while students are able to leave at 2:15 p.m., they may also be asked to stay until 2:50 p.m. As such, it is strongly recommended that activities students will consistently attend (such as work) should not be scheduled until after the student would be able to leave school at 2:50 p.m. In addition, no athletic practices, band practices, or theater practices will begin before 3:00 p.m. This time will be very intentional and geared towards allowing students the time they need to maintain their academic success. We believe this time will allow students and faculty the opportunity to connect and work together in areas they need. A few examples for the use of this time include: Ability for students to see teachers for extra academic help Tutoring from Incognito Instructors Ability to make-up tests, quizzes, homework, and lectures if a student missed class Club meetings Study tables and grade checks for athletic teams, band, and theater Faculty collaboration for projects, labs, or review sessions for classes School counselor meetings for help with scheduling, college information, or scholarships Doctor appointments (if this would help avoid missed class time) CONTINUE YOUR JOURNEY Request Information Let us help you explore opportunities at Reitz Memorial High School.
