Two months of construction has been completed on the renovation of the wellness and training center. The new space houses new Star Trac total body trainers, bikes, stability balls, free weights, training ropes, kettleballs, and a state of the art Vertimax V8 jump as well as a speed training system. The opening of the newly revamped wellness and Training Center is part of a series of recent investments aimed at expanding opportunity for Cathedral High School students and its growing enrollment. In addition to the Medical Gateways specialized program, Cathedral will introduce a new STeM program with a focus on robotics and engineering as well as the Business Academy which offers college credit in Business and Law.
