My son's experience at SHP has been OUTSTANDING!! He has been challenged academically and athletically and although nothing came easy, he is a better student, a better athlete, a better person as a result. We opted not to send him to our local top-ranked public school and we could not be happier with that decision. He was cut from an athletic team that he would've made easily had he stayed in town, but he did not want the easy way out. He has made life long friends (and so have we, his parents) and he swears that Seton Hall Prep is the best high school in the country. We wholeheartedly agree!!! There is no better place to send your son!

I am currently a freshman at SHP and I could not be happier. The teachers are very knowledgeable and available. In addition to Seton Hall's rigorous academics is our athletic program which is consistently among the best in the country. The Prep fields nationally ranked soccer, football, basketball, baseball, and lacrosse teams every year. I am proud to be a Pirate and wouldn't want to call any other school home.

My son attended Seton Hall and I could not have been more disappointed. This school did not prepare my son for the future at all and all they do is care about sports, even though their funding for sports is terrible. My son wanted to transfer after his Freshman year because it was too easy and he was in all the honors classes Seton Hall offered. He ended up transferring to St Peter`s which might have been the best decision we have ever made, that school prepared him for the future like SHP would never have. Go SPP!

My 3 children went to 3 different high schools. SHP was the best among them. They know how to teach boys and they know how to discipline them. I was never so happy with a school as I am with SHP. Bravo SHP!

An absolutely amazing school. The teachers are very good and work really hard on the learning of each individual student. The athletics are amazing and the coaches are very caring and understanding. I would definitely recommend Seton Hall Prep to anybody looking to get an amazing catholic education.

I am a 1984 graduate of Seton Hall Prep. My parents saw the value of a good education and sacrificed to send me there; they are more than happy with the results as the Prep "prepped" me for the professional world. This is an excellent school and if you have the resources (it's expensive) and your child has the discipline to apply himself, "it is well worth the investment" as my father would say.

My son graduated last year from the Prep and it truely was the best money we ever spent! Wonderful school, great parents and kids!!! He has made the best friends any parent could ever ask for. He was totally prepared for college and is also playing baseball in college as well. He truely enjoyed his high school experience. I would highly recommend this school to everyone who is looking for their sons to have a great HS experience.

Well worth the money. Seton Hall has been amazing for our sons. It provided them with the discipline, spirituality and welcoming atmosphere we were looking for in a high school. Even the best public school districts can't offer the environment and camaraderie like the great private schools can and this is certainly one of the best. Best money we could have spent. Visit the school, meet the people there, you'll be glad you did!
