Holy Ghost Preparatory School (often shortened to Ghost, HGP, or Holy Ghost Prep) is a private secondary school for boys located in Bensalem, Pennsylvania. It is a Roman Catholic school, founded by and under the supervision of the Spiritan missionaries.
Holy Ghost Prep was founded in 1897 as Holy Ghost Apostolic College, a preparatory school and junior-college seminary for young men studying to become members of the religious order of the Holy Ghost Fathers and Brothers. In the 1950s, the school started to move its college-level program to Duquesne University and opened its doors to non-seminarians in 1959 for the first time. In 1969, the seminary program was discontinued, and a year later, Holy Ghost Preparatory School was formed as a non-profit institution. In the 1990s, the school began a long-range planning process, which resulted in significant structural enhancements to the campus, and today its enrollment consists entirely of non-resident college-bound students.
