History and nickname
[edit]History
[edit]RBC can trace its history back to 1867 where the pastor of neighboring St. James church founded a school in the basement of the church. The high school as it is known today was established in 1927.
Origin of school nickname
[edit]The school adopted the name Caseys from Monsignor Joseph T. Casey, a retired rear admiral in the United States Navy, who began his career as a curate at St. James Parish in Red Bank. After retiring from the Navy in 1946 he returned to his first and only parish. He was a firm believer in the involvement of youth in the community and wanted to make sure that kids had organized programs to foster learning and fitness. Because of this, he used part of his Naval pension to hire a full coaching staff for teams at the high school, buy uniforms and equipment and organize the school band and orchestra.[9]
Athletics
[edit]The Red Bank Catholic High School Caseys[3] compete in Division A Central of the Shore Conference, an athletic conference comprised of public and private high schools in Monmouth and Ocean counties along the Jersey Shore.[4][10] The league operates under the jurisdiction of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA).[11] With 606 students in grades 10–12, the school was classified by the NJSIAA for the 2019–20 school year as Non-Public A for most athletic competition purposes, which included schools with an enrollment of 381 to 1,454 students in that grade range (equivalent to Group II for public schools).[12] The school was classified by the NJSIAA as Non-Public Group B (equivalent to Group I/II for public schools) for football for 2024–2026, which included schools with 140 to 686 students.[13]
The school participates with Donovan Catholic High School in a joint ice hockey team in which St. Rose High School is the host school / lead agency. The co-op program operates under agreements scheduled to expire at the end of the 2023–24 school year.[14]

Building projects
[edit]Construction on a new athletic facility takes the place of the recently demolished Sternweiss building that was knocked down in the summer of 2008. The construction of this building is the main focus of their "Imagine RBC 2010" plan, with the other construction being the renovation of a number of classrooms and important areas around the school.[citation needed] This building will be mainly a Student Center with numerous facilities for education, sports, and fitness.
The new 31,000 square feet (2,900 m2) student center now houses a 2,200-square-foot (200 m2) fitness center, two classrooms, locker rooms and proper storage space which will house the Alumni Hall of Fame and trophies and includes infrastructure upgrades such as a new heating system for the entire plant that was completed in September 2007 and is expected to result in significant savings in heating costs. This project was estimated to cost around $12 million which will be funded through the school's Capital Campaign, and was estimated to finish sometime in 2010.[48]
The school is renovating the existing building by completely updating three classrooms, while making numerous additions to others and adding a technology center to their library, complete with 28 new computers and a ceiling-mounted projector with two flat screen LCD monitors.[citation needed] These upgrades along with the creation of a writing lab which is staffed during every lunch period will help increase student productivity and foster new student learning and creativity.[citation needed]
There will also be numerous renovations to the Broad Street Auditorium. This renovation was initiated by the class of the 1950s. The Classes of the 50s launched an initiative to refurbish the auditorium with a celebration called "Moments to Remember." The event preceded a series of fund raising efforts orchestrated by the PTA that funded the renovation. These mostly aesthetic renovations included new stage curtains, new ceiling and ceiling fans, new lighting fixtures and refinishing the original flooring.[citation needed]
Along with these already present renovations and those being constructed, RBC will be[when?] continuing to renovate every classroom and learning area in the school.
