NextGen Healthcare Program

Beginning in the 2026–2027 school year, DePaul Catholic High School will introduce the NextGen Healthcare Program, an academically rigorous pathway designed for students with a strong interest in pursuing careers in the healthcare field. This program provides a comprehensive curriculum that prepares students to meet all high school graduation requirements while working toward eligibility to sit for the Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) examination by the end of their senior year. Courses will be taught by DePaul Catholic High School faculty in collaboration with board-certified healthcare professionals from St. Joseph’s Wayne Medical Center, offering students both academic instruction and real-world clinical insight.
