Immaculate Conception High School Strives, within the context of family, to develop the whole person: morally, intellectually, socially, and physically. Recognizing the worth and uniqueness of each individual, we prepare students for life beyond high school, so that as responsible Christians, they will make a difference in the world of today and tomorrow.

At Immaculate we believe We are all children of a loving God. All people should be treated with respect and dignity. A non-violent environment contributes to the development of the whole person. Understanding and appreciation of diversity are vital to world peace and harmony. The primary goal of education is to develop life-long learners. Children should be given the opportunity to mature and learn at their own pace. All students are capable of learning. Students should be both nurtured and challenged. Educators should be a source of hope and encouragement to all students. Education should aspire to the elevation of social consciousness. Parents are the primary and most essential teachers of their children. Democratic ideals are imperative for a society to flourish. Our programs evolve from our beliefs.

Immaculate Conception High School opened its doors to fifteen freshmen in September of 1925. The birth of Immaculate Conception was the realization of its founder, Rev. Edward M. Farrel. Mother Mary Alexandrine, of the Sisters of Charity of St. Elizabeth, became the first principal of the high school, thus beginning a continued tradition of school support and supervision from the Sisters of Charity. Recently, in 2004, Immaculate Conception High School became a private school governed by a Board of Trustees. The student body is comprised of young people from many communities in Essex, Passaic, and Union counties. Immaculate has always been centrally located in Montclair, one block from Bloomfield Avenue and convenient to bus and train routes.
