GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (Oct. 20, 2004) - The Catholic High School Honor Roll today
announced the selection of the best 50 secondary schools in America. The first
annual Honor Roll, which will serve as an invaluable resource for students,
parents and benefactors, recognizes the nation's top 50 high schools based on
their demonstrated commitment to academic excellence, Catholic identity, and
civic education. To see a complete list of the schools, please go to the
Catholic High School Honor Roll Web site at

Antonian College Preparatory High School in San Antonio was named to the Honor
Roll. Archbishop Patrick F. Flores said, "I am pleased that Antonian College
Preparatory High School has been recognized by the Catholic High School Honor
Roll. It is a well-deserved honor and I congratulate all of the administrators,
faculty, staff and students. " Advisory board member Gerard Bradley, Professor
of Law at the University of Notre Dame, said the Honor Roll will serve as a
benchmark for all who are seeking an education informed by faith. "It draws
attention to schools that are contributing in extraordinary ways to the moral
and intellectual formation of young people," he said.
The primary goal of the Honor Roll is to encourage schools to educate their
students as effectively as possible, in a way that integrates Catholic faith and
prepares students for active engagement with the world. In addition to the Top
50 list, the Honor Roll also published the top 20 finalists in three categories
that are important to overall excellence: Academics, Catholic Identity, and
Civic Education. Antonian was named top school in Civic Education and Action
Category.
