Welcome to Catholic Memorial School

What does it mean when we say “We are CM”?

It means we are a place students call home. Visit CM on a typical day and you’ll see it’s a very busy place, as any home away from home for over 800 young men would be.

In the classrooms, CM is studying—in small classes with teachers who make learning fun and inspiring.

In the library, labs, and activity rooms, CM is doing what it loves—whether that be performing on stage, competing in math and speech/debate tournaments, recording a TV show for the school’s news broadcast, or composing music for upcoming concerts.

Out on the fields, CM is practicing—students build themselves into accomplished athletes who compete for personal and team greatness in the toughest league in Massachusetts, the Catholic Conference.  Those who work hard enough continue to compete in top college athletics programs across the country.

In the community, CM is helping—making service trips to nursing homes and after-school centers for at-risk children, volunteering at local food pantries, and fundraising for major events like the Walk for Breast Cancer and the Walk for Hunger.

And beyond Boston, CM is growing—with an international program to China in the coming years, summer travel programs like the Rice Summer Institute, and tours and mission trips to Peru, Puerto Rico, Montreal, and El Salvador in the Rice Solidarity Initiative.

“We are CM.” If you are a prospective seventh or ninth grader, we want you to be CM, too. If you are a graduate, thanks for checking in.

Take a look around our website, reading what other students, parents, or alumni of our school have to say about their time here. Talk to friends or neighbors whose brothers or sons may have gone here. Or schedule a visit to come to CM and hear what students mean when they say “We are CM.”

Just over fifty years ago, CM opened its doors to the first students who made the decision to spend what many would say were the most important years of their life. That remains our goal today.
