Community

Through Dominican’s all-school traditions like the All-School Liturgy, All-School Party, annual retreats, KnightWalk, Back-to-School Knight and more, students forge lasting bonds and friendships they will cherish for years to come.

We thank you for the people that turned this place into a sort of home, like the smile from Mama Keller every morning, the teacher who created a class to look forward to, and the person who was always waiting for you at the lunch table.
