Support at Every Step

While Cardinal Newman offers advanced coursework designed to challenge students to reach the next level, we also offer significant academic support.

After-school tutoring, study skill resources, and counselors provide the structure and support to meet the needs of every student. Our new Student Life Center and Library centralizes these learning resources and provides dynamic spaces for group studying, peer tutoring, and student collaboration.

Other resources include:

• Academic Support Center - Supports students in building the skills and strategies necessary for success in high school and beyond: organization of information and materials, self-advocacy, time management. Learn more »
• College, Academic, and Wellness Counseling Teams - The counseling team works collaboratively to support student success within our college preparatory curriculum. College counseling begins in the spring of Sophomore year and continues until graduation.

The Path to Success in College Begins in High School

Our college counseling team takes a personalized approach to supporting students as they navigate college admissions and scholarship processes. Last year, our graduates were accepted to 196 colleges and universities, and were awarded almost ten million dollars in college scholarships.
