We are proposing the reinstatement or creation of a Senior Early Release option for eligible students at Pittsburgh Central Catholic. This program would allow seniors who are on track for graduation and meet attendance and academic requirements to be released early from the school day.

This change would benefit students by providing additional time for part-time employment, college preparation, internships, study time, and reduced stress during their final year of high school. Many surrounding schools offer similar programs with clear eligibility guidelines.

We believe this policy can be implemented in a structured and responsible way that maintains academic expectations while supporting student success beyond high school.

By signing this petition, you are showing support for the school to consider reviewing and discussing this proposal.
