Bergen Catholic High School is an all-male Roman Catholic high school in Oradell, in Bergen County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey, serving students in ninth through twelfth grade.[10]

The school has been accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Elementary and Secondary Schools since 1989, and is accredited until January 2026.[4]

As of the 2021–22 school year, the school had an enrollment of 695 students and 51.9 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 13.4:1. The school's student body was 57.1% (397) White, 18.7% (130) Hispanic, 10.1% (70) Asian, 9.6% (67) Black, 4.3% (30) two or more races and 0.1% (1) Native Hawaiian / Pacific Islander.[9]

Activities

Mock trial team

The Bergen Catholic mock trial team has won 13 county championships (in 1985, 1989, 1991, 1993, 1996, 2000-2002, 2010, 2015-2017, 2019, and 2023) and five state titles (in 1985, 1989, 1991, 2000, and 2016), as well as a National Championship.[12] Bergen Catholic's team is nearly entirely student-run. In 1991, Bergen Catholic High School won the National High School Mock Trial Championships held in New Orleans, Louisiana.[13] Bergen Catholic returned to the national championship hosted in Columbia, South Carolina in 2000 after going undefeated in the county, Regional and State tournaments. The 1999-2000 team ultimately finished 4th in the country, with three "Outstanding Attorney" awards.[citation needed] The 2016 team won the New Jersey state championship, sending it to the National High School Mock Trial Championship in Boise, Idaho.[14]

In the 2008–09 season the team made it to the county finals, losing to Indian Hills High School. In 2010, the team defeated Mahwah High School to win the Bergen County Championship, but the team lost in the regional semi-finals, ending its season as one of the top ten teams in the state.[12] The Bergen Catholic team fell in the semi-final round of the county tournament at the end of January 2011 to the Mahwah High School team that went on to win the 2011 Bergen County Championship.[15]

Bergen Catholic's Mock Trial team finished undefeated in the regular season in 2014 and finished third overall in the county. In the 2015 season Bergen Catholic again finished undefeated in the regular season. In the "playoff" tournament Bergen Catholic defeated Northern Valley Demarest in the first round. Then on January 29, 2015, in a double header, defeated Mahwah (2014's county champion) in the semifinals and Indian Hills in the finals.[16]

Athletics

The Bergen Catholic Crusaders[5] compete as a member of the Big North Conference (United Division), a super conference that is comprised of public and private high schools in Bergen and Passaic counties that operates under the supervision of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association.[17] Until the NJSIAA's 2009 realignment, the school had participated in Division C of the Northern New Jersey Interscholastic League, which included high schools located in Bergen County, Essex County and Passaic, and was separated into three divisions based on NJSIAA size classification.[18] With 984 students in grades 10-12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2019–20 school year as Non-Public A for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 381 to 1,454 students in that grade range (equivalent to Group I for public schools).[19] The football team competes in the United Red division of the North Jersey Super Football Conference, which includes 112 schools competing in 20 divisions, making it the nation's biggest football-only high school sports league.[20][21] The school was classified by the NJSIAA as Non-Public Group A (equivalent to Group III/IV/V for public schools) for football for 2024–2026, which included schools with 738 to 1,404 students.[22]

Bergen Catholic has a long-standing rivalry with fellow Catholic schools Don Bosco Preparatory High School in Ramsey[23] which was ranked first in the state by NJ.com (with Don Bosco holding a 38-28-2 lead in the series) and with Saint Joseph Regional High School in Montvale, which was listed at 14th on NJ.com's 2017 list "Ranking the 31 fiercest rivalries in N.J. HS football" (with Bergen Catholic leading with a 31–17 overall record as of 2017).[24]

Bergen Catholic has one of the most successful programs in New Jersey. The Crusaders are 20-time state champions: they were awarded the Parochial A North title by the NJSIAA in 1963, 1965 and 1966,[25] and won via playoffs in 1979, 1980, 1982, 1986, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2004, 2017, 2021, 2022, and 2023.[26] Through the 2019 season, the team had an overall record against in-state teams of 420-156-10 (a winning percentage of .725).[27] A record of 99–10 between 1990 and 1999 made Bergen Catholic the winningest football program in the state of New Jersey for the decade of the 1990s.[28]

The 1998 team finished with a 12–0 record,[36] and was ranked first in New Jersey, 9th in USA Today national poll, and was voted "Team of the Century" by The Record.[37]

In 2021, the Crusaders defeated Don Bosco Prep by a score of 28–7 in the tournament's final game at MetLife Stadium to win the Non-Public A state championship and finish the season with a 12–0 record.[43] The team, which won its 15th state title, was recognized as the 3rd best high school football team in the country according to USA Today and fourth nationwide by MaxPreps.[44][45]
