Cardinal Newman High School is a diocesean, Roman Catholic middle and high school outside the city limits of Columbia, South Carolina.[citation needed] It is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Charleston.[citation needed]
History
Cardinal Newman was established in 1858 as Ursuline High School, a school for young women.[citation needed] That school was destroyed when Union soldiers burned Columbia in 1865.[citation needed] The school reopened in Valle Crucis, North Carolina and remained there until 1887, when it moved back to Columbia. The first male graduated in 1951. The school became a diocesan school in 1957 and was renamed Catholic High School of Columbia.[citation needed] The school moved to Forest Acres, a suburb of Columbia, in 1961 and was renamed Cardinal Newman High School in honor of John Henry Newman.[1][better source needed]
The school moved to a 50-acre campus in unincorporated Richland County near Sesquicentennial State Park in spring 2013[2] and began instruction there in January 2016.[citation needed]
In its efforts to provide Catholic education to as many students possible, Cardinal Newman School began its operation of a middle school (grades 7 and 8) in 1989.[citation needed] The building, which formerly served as the Ursuline Convent, was thoroughly renovated and welcomed more than a 100 students.[citation needed]

The school is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the National Association of Independent Schools, South Carolina Independent School Association, Palmetto Association of Independent Schools, the Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development, and the National Catholic Educational Association.[citation needed]
