The Spirit of a Squire
Side by side, cheering on their fellow Squires, Delone Catholic students support one another as they learn, grow, and perform.
Rooted in Faith
Squires study Scripture, pray together, and offer works of mercy in service to the Church, the school, and the greater community.
Growing in Wisdom
Squires study in required and elective courses, providing knowledge and skills needed for continued academic success, while celebrating each student's unique passions and gifts.
Prepared to Perform
Whether on the stage, on the court, or on the field, Squires put in the effort to develop self-discipline and virtue that will serve them for life.
Surrounded by Support
Squires find themselves surrounded by family, clergy, teachers and staff, alumni and generous community supporters.
With an Eye on the Future
At Delone Catholic, Squires prepare for college, careers, military service, and religious vocations.
