Experience our FAITH, PRIDE and SPIRIT

Archbishop Alter High School

Archbishop Alter High School has been providing an exemplary, comprehensive Catholic education to Dayton-area students for more than 60 years. We pride ourselves in preparing students for an ever-changing world through a broad selection of challenging academics, Christ-centered retreats, athletic opportunities, and a wide range of arts and extracurricular activities. We believe that this comprehensive approach allows students to grow intellectually, spiritually, creatively, and socially during their high school years. Above all, Alter students are part of a unique community, one in which they are known and loved, and are supported by teachers, staff, and peers as they work to reach their fullest potential.

During the fall admissions season, we invite you to participate in our shadow days, where you will join one of our current students on campus to attend classes and experience a “day in the life” of an Alter Knight. We also invite you to one (or all!) of our admissions events- these evenings highlight the faith, pride, and spirit that make Alter so incredibly special.

Thank you for taking the time to consider Alter High School. We look forward to meeting you and helping you explore all the opportunities Alter has to offer!
