Kolbe Cathedral High School

Kolbe Cathedral High School

Kolbe Cathedral High School is a small, private, Catholic, college preparatory school located in the heart of Bridgeport, Connecticut. It was formed by the Diocese in 1976 by combining Kolbe Boys High School and Cathedral Girls High School. Forty-seven years later, it continues to be a much-needed beacon of hope and an instrument of personal transformation for its diverse, multicultural, co-ed student population in "the Hollow" section of the largest and poorest city in Connecticut.

Even at this subsidized rate, almost 95% of our students still require substantial financial aid to attend Kolbe. Financial support to the Marian Work Study significantly offsets student tuition as donations to our program fund scholarships.
