History

Divine Child High School was founded by Monsignor Herbert Weier in September 1958 as a co-educational parish school. The school opened with 84 freshmen, two Bernardine Franciscan Sisters, and one athletic coach. The first graduating class of 1962, consisted of 69 graduates. The original building consisted of 37,478 square feet of space including ten classrooms, two science labs, a small library, a typing and office machines room, and a study hall room. Since that time, eleven additions have significantly increased the size and facilities of the school.

Our facility is made up of 34 classrooms, a chapel, a library/media center, over 100 computers school-wide, an all-purpose meeting room, an auditorium that seats over 500, a state of the art gymnasium with an above level walking track, weight room, wrestling room, cafeteria, several conference rooms and administrative offices.
