ABOUT ST. KATHARINE DREXEL PREPARATORY

Drexel Prep is located at 5116 Magazine Street, formerly the site of Xavier University Preparatory School. Drexel Prep provides an advantageous environment for both education and self-development by encouraging students to exercise analytic and creative thinking to develop students’ leadership skills.
