Seton Catholic Preparatory High School celebrated its 70th anniversary of opening on Sept. 13, known as Seton Catholic Prep Day in the city of Chandler.
It was opened as a Parish school under the leadership of Father Joseph Patterson in 1954, serving the farming and migrant communities of Chandler at its original location near downtown, according to a news release.
The institution moved to its current location at Dobson and Ray roads in 1983 after a fire burned down the original facility. SCP has since grown its enrollment to about 550 students.
The release states Seton Catholic aims for more growth, having already recently invested in renovations to its main campus buildings, remodeled its front entrance in 2024 and the beginnings of an Event Center project that will help the campus host numerous school and community events that is scheduled to be completed in the near future.
The school has served as a centerpoint of community for multiple generations of student families, the release states, and aims to follow founder Father Patterson’s call to “Love all, serve all.”
