Since its founding in 1905, Cathedral High School has been empowering the young women of New York City through a transformative education and formation. Our school's Catholic identity forms the whole person—mind, body, and soul—and prepares students to enter both college and Heaven. We look forward to welcoming the new Class of 2029 into our Cathedral family this fall!
Cathedralites represent diverse cultural populations and religious backgrounds. Our rigorous curriculum, which includes Advanced Placement courses and a specialized programs in the fields of Health and Medicine, prepares Cathedralites to enter the college or university of their choice. Our graduates earn millions of dollars each year in college scholarships and grants and matriculate to many of the nation’s top schools with prestigious awards such as the Gates Millennium Scholarship and the Questbridge National Match Scholarship.
To supplement our academic offerings, Cathedral also offers a vibrant athletics program, including basketball, lacrosse, soccer, cross country, flag football, softball, volleyball, and cheer, and over a dozen student-led clubs, including National Honor Society, World Youth Alliance, Latin Ballroom Dancing, Medical Club, and Photography Club.
