All Hallows High school is a private Catholic high school for young men, inspired by the vision of Blessed Brother Edmund Ignatius Rice, founder of the Congregation of Christian Brothers.

The Congregation of Christian Brothers in 1909 Founded All Hallows. When the school was first opened it was located at 13-15 West 124th Street. With the passing of time, however, the enrollment became such that there was a need to find a new location. In 1929 the property of the present location was purchased and in 1930 the building was completed. Having finished its first 90 years of service it proudly boasts an alumni of over 10,000 men.

OUR SEAL
The Latin phrase PRO FIDE ET PARTIA means FOR FAITH AND COUNTRY. The American eagle at the center of the seal represents the All Hallows Community's commitment to the United States of America. The wreath of palm surrounding the seal refers to victory and achievement in both athletics and scholastics. The circle surrounding the eagle is a reminder of our continuing faith and the four corners of the seal are represented by Gaelic symbols for the continuation of life.

ACCREDITATION
All Hallows High School is accredited by The Board of Regents of The University of the State of New York and the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. We are active members of the National Catholic Education Association, the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development and the National Association of Secondary School Principals.

ACCEPTANCE TO ALL HALLOWS

All eighth grade students seeking acceptance to All Hallows must take the coop examination administered by the Archdiocese of New York. Forms for this exam can be obtained from his Catholic grammar school or from the Archdiocese of New York Education Office. Seventh and eight grade transcripts are to be mailed, from the school he is attending, to All Hallows.
Once both the results of the coop exam and the transcript are received each student is evaluated for his ability to complete the requirements to graduate from All Hallows.
Those students seeking admission from another high school must submit a letter to the Principal. The Principal will then indicate what is needed to complete the process.

ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS

All Hallows High School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available at the school. All Hallows does not discriminate on the basis of race color, national and ethnic origin, in the administrations of its own educational policies, admission policies, scholarship, athletic and other administered programs.
The registration of a student at All Hallows is considered a recognition and an acceptance on his part and the part of his parents or guardians of compliance with all the rules and regulations of All Hallows High School.
In order for a student to go on the next year he must pass all of his courses for the current year. Any mark below a sixty five percent is considered a failure. If a student receives a failing final mark in a course he must make up this course in a summer school approved by the Principal of All Hallows. Any student with three of more failures on their final average is not re-admitted to All Hallows unless it is decided that he may repeat the year. A student may be required to leave All Hallows in January if extraordinary deficiencies exist. Students involved in extracurricular activities are required to maintain passing grades in all subjects.

STATEMENT OF PHILOSOPHY
"Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus to the church He founded. Through education the Church seeks to prepare its members to proclaim the Good News and translate this proclamation into action. Since the Christian vocation is a call to transform oneself and society with God's help, the educational efforts of the Church must encompass the twin purposes of personal sanctification and social reform in light of Christian values." To Teach As Jesus Did" U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops
All Hallows teaches the young men that education liberates them and develops their minds and imagination. Through the interaction of instructors and students, All Hallows stresses that to be educated is to be able to immerse oneself in a lifelong learning experience to understand the world and to be able to distinguish, discern and discriminate within a system of God-centered values.
The course of study reflects the students' diversity of backgrounds and abilities. All Hallows strives to address this diversity through an open caring teaching community that creates an atmosphere of self-discipline, courtesy and concern for others. The students are urged to achieve to the best of their abilities; thus, preparing them for the challenges and opportunities of adult life.
All Hallows' goal are to guide the students into becoming educated men, as well as Christian gentlemen who will make our world a better place to live.
