Lancaster Catholic High School is a high school located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA.
The school is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Harrisburg secondary schools and is best known for its accomplishments in scholastic writing, basketball, and marching band programs, although as of late, its football and men's tennis teams have also posted successful seasons.
The school is coeducational and runs on a traditional quarter system. As a parochial school, LCHS requires all students to take one credit (full-year course) of religious study for each year of their duration at the school. Catholicism plays a very large part of the environment at the high school from constant themes in their award-winning band shows, to monthly liturgies and to extracurricular activities.
