Stephen T. Badin High School, (commonly known as Badin High School) is a Catholic high school of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati school system, serving grades nine through twelve in Hamilton, Ohio. It is a comprehensive high school which admits students of all levels of ability. Curriculum is offered on four distinct levels. 96% of Badin graduates continue their education.

Badin High School is named after Father Stephen T. Badin, the first Catholic priest ordained in the United States. Badin High School first opened its doors the fall of 1966. Previously, two high schools served the area from the early 1900s until their closings in 1966. Hamilton Catholic High School for young men and Notre Dame High School for young women. The Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, the Brothers of St. Mary, archdiocesan priests, other religious orders and committed lay persons laid the foundation of Badin High school at its current location near Potter's golf course on New London Road. Father Frank Miller (Purcell '42) organized the merger and became the first principal of the combined school.
The school offers a variety of clubs and activities for students to enjoy. A few on the list are: Student Council, Pro-Life Club, Liturgical Music Group, Badin Studio (art club), Badin Rocks (band), Badin String Group, Drumline, Jazz Band, Culinary Club, Claybusters (Clay target shooting), archery, rowing, Fishing Club, Junior States of America, Junior Engineering Technical Society, foreign language clubs, service clubs, and more.
