With our rigorous, college-preparatory curriculum, Bishop McNamara High School educates the minds and hearts of each and every student in a thriving, inclusive Catholic community. We make sure to provide engaging, hands-on, inquiry-based learning opportunities for our students beyond the classroom, including internships, online learning opportunities, guest speakers, field trips and even chances for students to travel abroad and experience other cultures first-hand.
Our distinguished faculty has on average 14 years of professional experience in their respective fields, with 64% holding advanced degrees!
The growth and changes that happen in high school are essentially the same for a teenager. What is different however, is the environment in which the teenager experiences high school, and that's where McNamara is different - here you are cared for and educated in a way that is not similar to other high schools. When you fall, we catch you. When you want to succeed, we propel you. The word that best describes our vibe is simply, love. Emily Koenick, English Teacher, Bishop McNamara High School
