Overview
Camden Catholic High School, located minutes from the Cherry Hill Mall, is a Catholic co-educational college preparatory school under the direction of its Board of Trustees and the Diocese of Camden, NJ. Camden Catholic High School is dedicated to serving a diverse student population, and as such, provides a Catholic environment that nurtures the whole person by integrating faith and life. Consistent with our Catholic tradition Camden Catholic High School seeks to develop leaders who are rooted in Gospel values and committed to meeting the challenges of building a just society. Students are offered an education, emphasizing skills and values that encourage the realization of individual potential.
Such an education is designed to promote Christian self-awareness and a concern for others from the Roman Catholic perspective.
Paul VI, a diocesan high school inspired by the Catholic ideal, is committed to the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to the spiritual, intellectual, physical and social development of its students.
As a Catholic school, we have the responsibility to prepare our students for the contemporary world guided by the light of faith.
We offer students the opportunity to learn, live and worship as active members of a Catholic community.
The total development of the individual occurs only in an environment of freedom and challenge commitment with personal responsibility.
It is essential, therefore, that during the formative years the school gradually develop personal responsibility in a student by gradually increasing the student's freedom.
