Your Squirehood Starts Here

Invest in Your Family Values

Wondering, "Can we afford a Catholic school education?" We hear you.

But here's a more important question: "Can you afford NOT to invest in an education that strengthens your family's values?"

Yes, a Delone Catholic education is affordable. But the investment in your child's future is priceless.

A field of American flags

In honor of Veterans Day, Delone Catholic High School will pray in gratitude for all veterans during the entire month of November. Please submit any names of veterans you wish us to remember in prayer.  (Note: if you have previously submitted names, you do not need to resubmit them. We are still praying!)

From Nov. 8-15, the Venerable St. Bede Chapter of Rho Kappa National Social Studies Honor Society will also participate in the 2024 Field of Flags project sponsored by DAV.org to honor local veterans and raise critical funds to support our ill and injured heroes. Each flag represents one veteran – and our unwavering commitment to serving all veterans after they’ve sacrificed so much for our country.

Our Town

Delone Catholic Theatre Director Gabi Cranga ‘17 chose Our Town for this year’s fall play with greater intention than meets the eye. In the wake of divisive national politics and devastating natural disasters, Cranga thought that the classic play might unite neighbors. “Hopefully, with Delone being in McSherrystown, we can relate to being in a small town. It reminds us of what America used to be like. It talks about people and not so much about technology. The characters take pride in their little town, and that is something we need to be reminded of, especially right now.” 

The Arts at Delone Catholic looks forward to welcoming an audience of neighbors and friends from the local community to experience Our Town, onstage in the Delone Gymnasium on Nov. 22 and 23 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 24 at 2 p.m.
