Philosophy
St. Jean Baptiste High School is committed to the education of young women of diverse strengths and backgrounds. A rigorous academic program prepares its graduates to excel in college and in their future professions. After the completion of her four years at St. Jean’s, a graduate will receive a St. Jean Baptiste High School Diploma in addition to a New York State Regents Diploma.
As a college preparatory school, St. Jean Baptiste High School offers students the opportunity to experience the rigors of college level coursework. Through Advanced Placement (AP) classes and the bridge program with St. Joseph's University, students may earn up to 33 college credits before graduation.

Our committed faculty, a supportive team of guidance counselors, and small class sizes foster a community where each student is known, challenged, and inspired to achieve. Located in the heart of Manhattan, St. Jean Baptiste High School provides extraordinary opportunities for students to learn beyond the classroom through partnerships with world-renowned institutions, visits to iconic museums, and experiences at leading hospitals and culturalcenters.
