Monsignor Farrell High School

What Monsignor Farrell High School does

Monsignor Farrell High School is a private, all-boys Catholic secondary school founded in 1961 and located in the Oakwood Heights section of Staten Island, New York. The school serves approximately 900 students through three curriculum tracks — Scholars Program, Honors Program, and College Preparatory Regents — with AP courses in biology, chemistry, computer science, physics, and political science. It is governed by a Board of Trustees under the oversight of the Archdiocese of New York, with admissions administered through the TACHS Entrance Exam. A 15:1 student-to-faculty ratio is supported by 103 faculty members (60 teaching staff, plus 40 master's- and 3 doctorate-degreed educators).

The school's product surface combines a standard college-prep curriculum with differentiated specialty programming: the Business & Finance Institute (anchored by 12 Bloomberg terminals and Bloomberg Market Concepts certification — one of only two programs of this scale in NYC and the first on Staten Island), the Institute for Law & Public Policy, Medical Education Development (MEDI), the Performance & Wellness Center, and the WFBN-TV on-campus broadcasting studio with green-screen production capability. Technology infrastructure is conventional — SMART Boards, computer labs, Adobe Creative Suite, Schoology LMS for course delivery, and Blackbaud for events/donations. Extracurricular breadth includes 40+ clubs, varsity athletics across multiple sports (with championship-level lacrosse and soccer programs), and a student-run digital newspaper (The Lion).

The revenue model is tuition-led and recurring, supplemented by summer camps (athletic and non-athletic, $200–$375 per session, open to non-Farrell students), alumni donations channeled through the Farrell Family Association, and ancillary fees such as $10 transcript requests. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer, relying on admissions events, community engagement, and the alumni network to recruit incoming middle-school students. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The school does not operate outside the Staten Island geography, does not have a parent company, and is not publicly traded.
