History of the SchoolNewman Preparatory School was founded in 1945, the centennial of John Henry Cardinal Newman's conversion to Catholicism, by Dr. J. Harry Lynch and a group of Catholic laymen, for the purpose of providing college preparation to veterans returning from service to their country in World War II. Over the years, "Newman Prep" evolved into a co-educational, dipoloma-granting program, and eventually began to accept younger students into the ninth grade. During the 1960's, the school also operated The Newman School for Boys as a separate six-year, grade seven through twelve, college preparatory school. |
