Judge Memorial

Builders of a More Just Society

CURA PERSONALIS

Academic • Social • Physical • Spiritual

Committed to the charism of Cura Personalis, or care for the whole person, Judge Memorial Catholic High School in Salt Lake City takes a holistic approach to invest in our students’ intellectual, social, physical and spiritual development — guiding them to lead with their hearts as well as their minds — to become builders of a more just society. Our award-winning liberal arts curriculum encourages students to explore, take risks, make discoveries — and connections. Launching our second century of academic excellence, we welcome a diverse student body focused on servant leadership and the exploration of their full potential.

ADMISSIONS

Offering an impressive range of academics, clubs, athletics, retreats and service opportunities, we empower students to challenge themselves in a no-label environment. Achieving excellence since 1921, Judge was honored as a 2021 National Blue Ribbon School during our centennial, and we’re the only high school in Utah recognized with the award more than once. One Community. One Mission. One Hundred Years.

You’re not going to find a school this diverse I don’t think anywhere in Salt Lake. When I first came here, I told my husband it’s what heaven looks like ... and I think that’s fantastic.
— PTOSHIA MERRILLS, Judge Memorial parent

By emphasizing critical thinking, communication and technology integration in a stimulating environment, Judge Memorial creates a future of possibility for every student — no matter their background or circumstance — to position them to succeed in the global economy.

We approach diversity, equity and inclusivity with a social justice lens to continuously identify, address, and overcome barriers to student success and achievement. At Judge, we recognize, appreciate and celebrate the many identities to ensure our school is a sanctuary for students.

ATHLETICS

Our storied tradition emboldens students of all physical abilities to reach, compete, learn, and grow as part of a sportsmanship-focused, 100-year legacy. For over a century, Judge Memorial has celebrated the powerful role sports play in fostering the development of a young person. Besides trophies, our student-athletes acquire discipline, commitment, determination, teamwork, and balance — critical assets for living a fuller life.
