Sending our son to Holy Ghost Prep was the best decision. He immersed himself in the school culture and made life long friends. The curriculum during the school year along with courses offered in the summer, challenged him to exceed to higher level classes. But what we are most proud of is the confidence he has gained in himself.

The four years that our son spent at Holy Ghost Preparatory was such a positive experience that he's sad to see it come to an end. He met amazing friends, took challenging and engaging classes, and worked with top-notch and dedicated faculty. We highly recommend HGP.

We have already two alumni's of HGP ( 2018 & 2020), 3rd will be graduating this coming June 2024. One is coming as a freshman, will be class 2028. Education is an investment, what HGP gives is more than education, they gave our children a family that cares, they nurture our children to become the best that they could be and they become young adults ready to conquer the world. HGP produce leaders, responsible citizens and the future of generations. All teachers, staff and admin. does an excellent job. Your children will grow spiritually. As a parent, it's worth every penny and you don't need to be rich to be at HGP " if there is a will, there is a way". Finance office will work with you..

Our son graduated in 2012. HGP made him work harder than I ever would have imagined (and in some cases I think even too hard) but in the end he was incredibly prepared for college. His academic achievement there earned him a full tuition scholarship for college. I have no doubt this would not have h...

I absolutely love the experience my son is having as a student at HGP. The boys are treated like young professionals in a stron academic enivroment with the right balance of that with fun and support.

Holy Ghost Prep exceeded our expectations! The sense of comraderie among the boys and the teachers and staff is contagious. Our son felt right at home from the beginning and felt comfortable to join many activities. The single gender school is a plus, the boys are expected to grow as men, and the ma...
