Berks Catholic High School


Berks Catholic High School is a four-year comprehensive coeducational Roman Catholic preparatory/secondary school located in Reading, Pennsylvania. It is approved and accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the Diocese of Allentown. The school's athletic rivals include Wyomissing Area High School. Currently Berks Catholic has capacity issues since the school can not support the current number of students attending. A $9 million expansion project is expected to get underway in 2017.

History

Following the 2010-2011 Academic Year, the Diocese of Allentown closed both Holy Name High School and Reading Central Catholic High School. The Diocese then established Berks Catholic High School, which officially opened on July 1, 2011 on the site of the former Holy Name High School.
