XL Program

Teurlings Catholic High School has a commitment to excellence in education.  The XL Program (“XL” - EX CEL 1. Surpass, out do 2. Be better than; exceed, improve on, cap, eclipse) is designed to promote academic excellence by encouraging each student to strive to be the best he or she can be through incentives, encouragement, and recognition.  It is also intended to build REBEL PRIDE:

 

P    Promote academic excellence
R    Recognize and reward people
I     Image - How we are perceived
D    Developing tangible incentives
E    Everything/everyone toward excellence

 

There are four levels of recognition on a quarterly basis.  Each XL card carries a variety of rewards and incentives.
                                                                  3.800 or better GPA
                                                                  3.400-3.799 GPA
                                                                  3.000-3.399 GPA
                                                                 
Because of our commitment to education, every effort is made to encourage, promote and recognize academic excellence. All students attaining XL status are recognized each quarter.  Students are awarded XL cards which allows certain classroom and/or campus privileges.  In addition, they are eligible for prizes attained through contributions garnered by the R.A.B.C. Student Incentives Program.
