St. John Henry Newman Catholic Secondary School (formerly Cardinal Newman Catholic Secondary School until 2019) is a Catholic secondary school located in the community of Stoney Creek in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District School Board and is known for its sports teams as well as its various stage performances.

History[]

Cardinal Newman Catholic High School was established in 1975 and named after John Henry Newman.[4] According to The Fraser Institute's research of Ontario High Schools in 2010, Cardinal Newman ranked in the top 10th percentile of top rated secondary schools in Ontario,[5] and in 2015, was named one of two highest rated schools in the Greater Hamilton Area.[6]

In October 2019 the school was renamed to St. John Henry Newman Catholic Secondary School following Newman's canonisation in the Roman Catholic Church.[7]
