Charlotte Catholic's school colors are red, white and light blue and occasionally black for special sports games.

Since then, Brodowicz led Catholic to the NCHSAA 4A state championship game in his first season, falling to New Bern High School.

In 2016, Catholic lost to James B. Dudley High School (led by future Virginia Tech QB Hendon Hooker) in the NCHSAA Semi-Finals.

In 2014, Jerry Healy, Charlotte Catholic's principal, resigned amidst speculation that he had been embezzling money from a fund set up to aid lower-income families in sending their children to the school.

While prosecutors suggested probation with no action to take him into custody, in April 2016 U.S. District Judge Frank Whitney Jr. sentenced Healy to three months in a halfway house.

Billard claims he lost his teaching job at Catholic due to him announcing wedding plans for a long time male partner.

On October 25, 2014, of which just weeks before North Carolina's same-sex marriage law was eliminated, Billard posted his wedding announcement on Facebook.

The complaint, filled by the state's office of the American Civil Liberties Union, declares back pay, benefits, punitive damage, compensatory damages for emotional distress, a court order blocking the school and Catholic leaders from taking similar actions in the future, and his substitute teacher job back.

During the speech, Sister Jane Dominic suggested that masturbation and pornography can lead young adults to become homosexuals and that children raised in single parent homes have a greater likelihood to grow up to be gay.

Shortly thereafter, a counter petition was written by then Charlotte Catholic student Jack Denton, who would later be involved in a controversial religious liberty suit at Florida State University,[10] (c/o 2017) which defended the dignity of Sister Jane Dominic Laurel since it had come under attack after her lecture.

In early April, Sister Jane Dominic cancelled all of her scheduled speaking events and took a sabbatical from her teaching position at Aquinas College.

[13] The President of Aquinas College stated that in her speech Sister Jane Dominic “spoke clearly on matters of faith and morals” but “her deviation into realms of sociology and anthropology was beyond the scope of her expertise.” On November 17, 2017, Charlotte Catholic announced that disciplinary measures would include the prohibition of vaping devices and letters were sent home on this issue.

[14] In March 2018, Charlotte Catholic fired a school staff member after two students aged between 16 and 17 came forward with inappropriate text conversations.

The accusations stated that players of Charlotte Catholic's football team bullied other students and were involved in hazing at the school.

[18] The change quickly garnered backlash from parents and students alike with a change.org petition being started to have admistration give more detailed answers which has gained almost 2,000 signatures.

On January 28, 2025, a second petition was created calling for the resignation of Principal Lori Philips, President Kurt Telford and Superintendent of Mecklenburg Area Catholic Schools, Gregory Monroe.
