Chaminade-Madonna College Preparatory (CMCP) is a private Marianist school located in Hollywood, Florida, United States, on Chaminade Drive, in front of Nativity Catholic School in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami.

Joseph Spehar, S.M., and Sister Eugene Marie, SSND, Chaminade High School and Madonna Academy became operational in 1960.

Donald Winfree, S.M., supervised the construction of the Strickroth Classroom building, named in honor of Bro.

Facing declining enrollment and financial difficulties, in 1988, the Archdiocese of Miami, the Superior General of the Marianists and the School Sisters of Notre Dame agreed to merge Chaminade High School and Madonna Academy.

Longtime Chaminade High School teacher, counselor, and administrator, Robert Minnaugh, was named principal and charged with forming a new vision.

In that year, Chaminade-Madonna was honored by the Department of Education with the Blue Ribbon School of Excellence Award.

During his tenure as president, he worked diligently with Mr. Minnaugh to complete construction of the Einstein Building and the renovation of Marianist Hall (which contains the department chair offices).

This included the construction of a multimillion-dollar sports complex, increased scholarship availability and other improvements that led to an award-winning program.

He led the school through its first Capital Campaign, highlighted by the construction of a new Fine Arts Center, a project that had initially been proposed in 1998.

[citation needed] In July 2003, the first Hispanic principal of the school, and first woman, Gloria Ramos, was appointed.

This complements the formal system of classroom education by organizing students into small groups to develop leadership skills and foster the Marianist commitment to community.

It began in August 2009 with a cake cutting ceremony, and an aerial photograph of students, faculty, and staff forming a "50."

The school currently offers remedial classes in numerous subjects, including both honors and AP courses to qualifying students.

A unique "Spring Session" program takes place each February, allowing students to engage in numerous on and off campus activities.

The Chaminade-Madonna Athletics Department offers a weight training "Perfect Competition" program for their football players.
