More than a College Preparatory School.
With college admissions becoming increasingly competitive today, students need a competitive edge. Academics alone won’t get them accepted into the college or university of their choice. They need more.

St. Vincent De Paul is the best preparation for admission to a competitive college and for lifelong success beyond academics. SVDP Fall 2024 applications are open NOW!
SVDP educates students through a college preparatory curriculum that develops their spiritual, academic and social potential. Our goal is for students to become compassionate, responsible and active members of their communities.
SVDP students consistently go above and beyond in the classroom, athletic facilities and in their community. Many of our students take honors and AP classes, play multiple sports, and serve their community well beyond the required amount. This separates our student body as one that is the whole student.
