History

Fordham Preparatory School was established in 1841 by bishop John Hughes, later Archbishop of New York, as the Second Division of St. John's College, on the Feast of St. John the Baptist. In 1846, the
Society of Jesus , image = Ihs-logo.svg , image_size = 175px , caption = ChristogramOfficial seal of the Jesuits , abbreviation = SJ , nickname = Jesuits , formation = , founders ...
was chosen to preside over the institution. The Second Division's curriculum consisted of four years of study in Latin, Greek, grammar, literature, history, geography, mathematics and religion, followed by three years of study in the First Division (equivalent to present-day Fordham University). The degree of ''Artium Baccalaureus'' was awarded for completion of both curricula. The Second Division was a boarding school from its founding until 1920, when it ceased boarding operations and assumed its present form as a day school. St. John's College was re-chartered under its current name of Fordham University in 1907, and the school officially became known as Fordham Preparatory School in 1937, having been unofficially known as "Fordham Prep" for some years prior. In 1970, Fordham Preparatory School formally separated from the University, establishing itself as an independent preparatory school with its own administration, endowment, and Board of Trustees. Fordham Preparatory School was originally housed in a wing of the Fordham University Administration Building, since demolished. In 1890, the school was relocated to the recently-constructed Hughes Hall, originally called Second Division Hall or Junior Hall. Hughes Hall now houses the Fordham University Gabelli School of Business. After formally separating with the University, the Prep moved to then-new Shea Hall in 1972, erected on what were once fields at the northwestern corner of the campus. Rising construction costs, coupled with the recent separation from the University, brought the Prep into poor financial standing by the early 1970s.
