My child, Jewish, attended CNHS. It was the best decision for us as a family. Not only did my child receive an excellent education; but was well prepared for college which was completed in 4 years. CNHS prepares the students academically while they teach love, tolerance, respect and guide them to make good choices in life. The teachers are dedicated. Great School. Everybody fits in. It truly is a family oriented school.

Our son, a non catholic, graduated several years ago. He was well prepared for college which he completed in four year. The faculty is dedicated and keeps a watchful eye on your child. Great School.
