Gerard Catholic High School was a Roman Catholic high school which opened in 1962 in Phoenix, Arizona. It was named for Msgr. Edward Gerard, one of the first ordained priests to minister in the Arizona territory. In the same year, Bourgade Catholic High School in west Phoenix opened. Several Bourgade buildings — the school's Madonna Hall, Hillman Center, and 100/200 wing buildings — are identical to former Gerard structures.
Its athletics mascot was the Redcoat. Its colors were red and gray. A board honoring Gerard's athletic history is installed in the lobby of the gymnasium at Seton Catholic Preparatory High School.
