Tradition, Transformation, and Triumph

We are a community based on Roman Catholic values to inspire diverse young men of the New York City metropolitan area to become lifelong learners and responsible citizens. We will accomplish this goal by encouraging students’ spiritual and intellectual growth through a rigorous college preparatory program of academics, extra-curricular activities, and personal discipline.

The Cardinal Hayes High School Community believes: An effective Roman Catholic education develops the whole person spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and physically.

Every student and every background deserves respect and consideration.

Every student can become a lifelong learner.

Every student can contribute to the common good of society.

Every student can use the skills and knowledge gained throughout school and life to become a problem-solving citizen.

Every student has the right to a safe, nurturing, challenging, and stimulating learning environment.

Every student has unique talents that can be developed to their fullest potential.
