Fathers' Club

Image

Early in 1958, a group of devoted laymen, headed by Mr. John C. Henderson, Mr. Peter E. Fleming and Doctor George A. Sheehan, realized the need for another Catholic high school in Monmouth County. With the approval of the Most Reverend Bishop George W. Ahr, they initiated a drive to raise funds for the purchase of a piece of property. The Brothers of the Christian Schools, under the leadership of their Provincial, Brother Anthony John Halpin, agreed to staff the school and finance its construction.

The former Whitney Greentree Stables, a 157-acre farm, was purchased and one building was converted into what is now With six Brothers and 150 students, the school was opened in September, 1959 on what was formerly the 157-acre Whitney Greentree Stables.

Since the very beginning, the Fathers’ Club has served as a pillar of support for the Academy experience.
