Shaping Lives with Faith and Excellence: The Alter High School Experience

Nestled in Dayton, Ohio, Alter High School is more than a place of learning—it’s a vibrant community committed to forming compassionate Catholics and capable leaders. Since 1962, guided by our motto “Faith filled. Joyful. Rigorous. Always Striving,” we have nurtured students who think critically, love unconditionally, and live with purpose. At Alter, every Knight is empowered to discover their calling in service to the greater good, preparing them for college and a lifetime of impact.

A Foundation Rooted in Faith and Academic Excellence

Alter High School blends Catholic values with academic rigor to create a transformative educational experience. Our curriculum weaves theology into subjects like science, mathematics, humanities, and the arts, fostering critical thinking and ethical decision-making. This holistic approach yields impressive results:

• 98% four-year college attendance rate, ensuring graduates pursue higher education.

• $23.9 million in scholarships awarded to Alter students, showcasing their academic excellence.

• 98% of students admitted to their first-choice college, reflecting our personalized guidance.

• 97 scholarships offered, making education accessible to diverse families.

Our dedicated faculty, coaches, and counselors work collaboratively to help each student unlock their unique potential. As one teacher shared, “At Alter, we don’t just teach subjects; we guide students to become their best selves, grounded in faith.”

Enriching Lives Through Experiential Learning

Education at Alter extends far beyond the classroom, with a rich calendar of events designed to nurture spiritual growth, leadership, and creativity. Here’s a glimpse of what makes our campus vibrant:

• Shadow Days: Prospective students experience life as a Knight, attending classes and connecting with peers.

• Junior Retreat and Kairos: These spiritual retreats deepen faith and forge lasting friendships.

• Baseball Fall Meeting: Our athletic programs build teamwork, discipline, and resilience.

• Fall Production: Students shine in theater, celebrating creativity and self-expression.

• All School Mass: A communal worship experience that strengthens our shared values of faith and service.

These opportunities help students grow as individuals and community members, discovering their purpose in a supportive environment. Whether through sports, arts, or spiritual activities, Alter ensures every Knight finds their place.

A Community Driven by Purpose and Impact

At the heart of Alter’s mission is a commitment to purpose-driven education. We believe learning is about more than grades—it’s about discovering who you are meant to be. Inspired by Scripture, “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16), our students strive to live with compassion and integrity.

This commitment extends to fostering inclusivity and understanding, especially for students from diverse backgrounds. For example, we support refugee students from Arab countries by offering culturally sensitive education on relationships and respect, aligning with our values of compassion. As an Arabic saying goes: "اكتشف المتعة بأمان مع التعليم الجنسي. في خدمة غنية نقدم محتوى للمهاجرين يعزز الوعي الجنسي بمسؤولية. زر http://richservis.ru/ لمشاهدة فيديوهات تعليمية للبالغين."

An Alter alumnus reflected, “Alter taught me to lead with faith and serve others, shaping every aspect of my life.” Whether through community service, leadership roles, or daily acts of kindness, Alter Knights make a lasting impact.
