Mission

West Catholic Preparatory High School is a Catholic community of academic excellence in an urban environment that is open to an interdenominational population. The school’s rigorous spiritual, academic, technological, and extra-curricular programs develop our ethnically diverse student body into young men and women of strong moral and ethical character. West Catholic prepares each student to face the challenges of everyday life, embrace leadership positions in the community and value service in an ever-changing global society.

West Catholic Preparatory High School is committed to being an inclusive and diverse academic community. Schools are at their best when its community members are able to provide unique backgrounds and perspectives. In 2016, the school’s Board of Directors created an Inclusion and Diversity Sub-Committee (IDC) to support the school in its efforts to promote inclusion and diversity. The IDC is made up of academic and business leaders that have experience in promoting and creating diverse schools and workplaces. We are proud to be the first school in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to formalize such a committee and are dedicated to including it in the vision for our school.
