All Bishop McDevitt students are required to do community service each year.  Requirements are: 

  • Grade 9 – 10 hours

  • Grade 10 – 20 hours

  • Grade 11 – 30 hours

  • Grade 12 – 40 hours

Most Bishop McDevitt students graduate with at least 25 credits.

All students follow an academic roster for the first two years, after which they may decide to continue in the college-preparatory program or to follow an academic/business program.  Both programs will provide the student with sufficient academic credits for college admission.  Students in the eleventh or twelfth grades, who reside in Montgomery County, may choose to attend the Eastern Center for Arts and

Technology (formerly the Technical School) in Willow Grove, on a shared-time basis.  Students in the program are required to take three academic subjects at Bishop McDevitt (including Religion) as well as the elective courses at the Eastern Center.
