Bishop Fenwick High School
About
Bishop Fenwick High School is a Catholic, college-preparatory high school in Peabody serving students from many surrounding communities. Its mission centers on scholarship, leadership and service to others, and the program aims to prepare students to excel in college and careers while building on the foundation established by their families. Students pursue challenging academics alongside extracurriculars such as performing arts, campus ministry and athletics, and community service hours are a regular part of school life.
The school was founded by Richard Cardinal Cushing and staffed by the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, and Catholic traditions remain part of daily life, including Mass celebrated in the auditorium to open the school year. Students attend classes on a campus of more than 50 acres, and every athletic team plays its home competitions on site. Classes also reach into the community, such as freshman arts students reading stories to local preschoolers.
