For Seventh Graders

Since its founding in 1856, Seton Hall Preparatory School has provided young men with a holistic educational experience, grounded in our four pillars of family, faith, compassion, and courage. In an effort to share our mission with younger students, Seton Hall Prep is proud to offer a variety of academic, athletic, and social experiences to current seventh grade – and younger – students.

  • Seton Hall Prep Athletic Camps

    “Walking through the hallways of Seton Hall Prep is both a humbling and inspiring experience for any aspiring young athlete... One is virtually surrounded by other highly driven and successful young men.” - Marty Berman – Varsity Soccer Coach
     
    Since her founding in 1856, Seton Hall Prep and her student athletes have amassed over 397 conference, county, and state championships across 16 different sports. The purpose of the Seton Hall Prep Athletic Department is two-fold: to provide the tools to achieve athletic success, and to give our young men the skills necessary to succeed in life. Each summer, future and current Pirates of all ages are invited to attend one (or more!) of our many athletic camps, offered at The Prep’s own Kelly Athletic Complex and main campus in West Orange. Please see our athletic site for full details and contact information for Summer 2023 camps!
