Neumann Preparatory School (known familiarly as Neumann Prep) was a private, Catholic college-preparatory school located in Wayne, New Jersey, within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Paterson. It was founded as Neumann Preparatory Seminary in 1965. In 1970 Neumann was designated a Preparatory School and was all-male until the 1974-1975 academic year.

The school was named for Saint John Neumann.

Neumann Prep closed at the end of the 1989-1990 academic year. Since then the campus has been the site of a Montessori school and the Lakeview Learning Center. The current tenant is the Al-Ghazaly High School.
