What Bishop Guertin High School does

Bishop Guertin High School is a private, independent, Catholic college preparatory institution located at 194 Lund Road, Nashua, New Hampshire. Founded in 1947 and inspired by the Brothers of the Sacred Heart educational tradition, the school serves approximately 770 students in grades 9–12 drawn from more than 50 communities across Southern New Hampshire and, via a partnership with Study Six, a growing cohort of international students from countries including Spain, Italy, Chile, South Korea, China, and Germany. The academic program includes 23 AP courses, 47 honors classes, 80+ electives, and unique offerings such as the AP Capstone Program, Catholic Bioethics Honors, and the Hilton Scholars College honors track. The school reports a 100% college acceptance rate and an average class size of 18, supported by college counseling that begins in 9th grade with the same counselor for all four years.

The core digital infrastructure is the MyBG platform, a student information portal providing grade management, scheduling, and admissions workflows under a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) model; admissions are direct-to-consumer, supported by campus tours, shadow days, open house events, and a "First Look" feeder event for 5th–7th graders. The school does not offer any public API, mobile application, or AI-enabled product features. Athletics is a significant brand pillar, with 30 varsity sports and a Hockey program reinforced by the recent hiring of a former NHL player as assistant coach.

Bishop Guertin operates as a 501(c)(3)-style nonprofit funded primarily through recurring annual tuition of $17,900 for the 2026–27 year, an activity fee ($300), registration fee ($500), and a senior graduation fee ($400). Approximately 30% of students receive need-based financial assistance totaling over $800,000 annually. Ancillary revenue streams include alumni giving, an active capital campaign ("The Future is Now"), an annual fund, and international student tuition sourced through Study Six. The school has no parent company, no venture backing, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed M&A or restructuring activity.
