Congratulations to the Marist College Kogarah Class of 2023 on your outstanding Higher School Certificate (HSC) results! 

Our school climbed an astonishing 99 positions in the The Sydney Morning Herald rankings, placing 73rd in the state. 

This means Marist College Kogarah was the third best performing school across Sydney Catholic Schools, the highest ranking boys school and 2023’s most improved school. 

We also recorded 117 Distinguished Achievers, two All Rounders and one Top Achiever, together with a Band 6 rate of 19.8 per cent.  

One of the individual highlights among our students is Harrison Lee, who secured fourth place in the state for Information and Digital Technology Examination.

Marist College Kogarah Principal Simon Ghantous congratulated Year 12 on a fantastic effort. 

“Upon seeing our school’s results, I was extremely pleased for the young men who worked very hard” he said.  

“The key to our HSC success is embedded in the dedication of teachers to support the young men on their journey through the HSC and the commitment of students to reach their full potential. There are many factors that lead to good results –  too many to list comprehensively.”

“What strikes me most about the Class of 2023 is their unwavering dedication,” Mr Ghantous said.
