}}St Patrick's High School is a Roman Catholic educational institution located in Saddar Town, Karachi, Pakistan. Founded in 1861 by the Jesuits, the institution is the second-oldest school in the city.[1] Since 1950, it has been run by the diocesan clergy of the Archdiocese of Karachi.[1]

For the last 150 years, the school has produced well-known leaders and public figures, including two Presidents and two Prime Ministers of Pakistan, two Chief Ministers of Sindh, one deputy prime minister (of India) two Cardinals of the Catholic Church, and several Mayors of Karachi.

The school is owned by the Roman Catholic Church and managed by the Catholic Board of Education in Pakistan.{{Citation needed|reason=in line with Wikipedia guidelines, a citation / reference is needed to justify this statement|date=June 2018}}

History

The school was established on May 6, 1861, and officially registered as a high school in 1867. Its founder was Rev. Joseph A. Willy of the Society of Jesus (the "Jesuits"), who controlled the school till June 1935. It was then taken over by the Franciscan order until 6 October 1950. Since 1950, it has had Pakistani principals belonging to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Karachi.[2]

Fr Stephen Raymond, a diocesan priest, became the first Pakistani principal of his alma mater in 1950. The era of Fr Raymond as principal from 1950 to 1974 is referred by many old students as the "golden era" of St Patrick's. Fr Raymond is credited with constructing the Cambridge Building (1950), St Patrick's College (1952), the Teachers' Training College (1959), the first School Auditorium (1972). The school celebrated its centenary in 1962 with the President of Pakistan, Field Marshal Mohammad Ayub Khan as the Chief Guest.[3]

St Patrick's High School was one of the few private educational institutes that escaped nationalization in 1972.[4]

To commemorate the 125 years of the school, Pakistan Post office issued a special stamp in 1987.[1]

On 6 May 2011, the former students of the school instituted the Father Stephen Raymond Gold Medal to be awarded to the top student from the Commerce Section, as part of the 150th anniversary of the school.[5]

History was made again when Sister Margaret Madden became the first female principal of the School on 6 February 2017.[6]
