Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School is a co-educational, college-preparatory, Roman Catholic high school located at 357 Clermont Avenue in the Ft. Greene neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. The school serves students in grades 9 through 12. Loughlin was founded in 1851 and was the first high school in the Diocese (1853), but today is run independently by the Christian Brothers in the [https://web.archive.org/web/20170620023354/http://www.blmhs.org/page.cfm?p=62 Lasallian educational tradition], which holds central the appreciation of each student's uniqueness.

Today, the school graduates 100% of its senior students with at least 98% of graduates matriculating to college each year. In 2018, Loughlin enrolls nearly 650 students, making it the fifth-largest Catholic high school in Brooklyn and Queens. The school has 38 full-time teachers, two part-time teachers and four full-time counselors. The 2017–2018 tuition is $10,050, and nearly 60% of all students were awarded financial aid or scholarships, with an average aid amount of $3,200.

History

In 1851, the De La Salle Christian Brothers assumed direction of the boys' section of what was then known as the St. James School on Jay Street in Brooklyn. St. James School was the first Catholic school of the Diocese of Brooklyn.

In 1926 St. James became one of three diocesan high schools for boys. In 1933 the school moved to Clermont Avenue, and was renamed Bishop Loughlin Memorial High after the Very Reverend John Loughlin, the first Roman Catholic Bishop of Brooklyn, who served from 1853 to 1891.

In 1933 the high school on Jay Street was closed and the Brothers and students transferred to Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School. The new school was built on land originally intended for the diocesan cathedral bounded by Clermont, Greene, Lafayette, and Vanderbilt Avenues. The cornerstone of the school building erected in 1851 is now enshrined by the cafeteria entrance of the present building, a last vestige of the 81 years "Old St. James" stood downtown. The first Senior Prom was held in 1934 and the first edition of the Loughlinite, the school yearbook, appeared in 1938.

As a diocesan high school, Loughlin opened its doors to the people of the entire diocese, which included all of Long Island at that time. It has been coeducational since 1973 with the closure of a nearby diocesan girls' high school.

Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School is located in the neighborhood of Fort Greene, Brooklyn, in New York City. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Fort Greene is home to the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the Mark Morris Dance Company and several other arts and cultural organizations. It consists of tree-lined streets, 19th century brownstones and federal row houses and accessible public transportation and fine dining.[2]

Loughlin offers college credit opportunities through Advanced Placement Courses in: English, Environmental Science, Calculus, Music Theory, Physics, Spanish, US History, and World History.
