  • Our History

    Our History

    Althoff Catholic High School was founded in honor of Bishop Henry J. Althoff (1873-1947) in 1964 to serve the growing Catholic community in the area. The school was established to provide a new, co-ed environment for students from the diocese's grade schools, consolidating previous schools and building on the long history of Catholic education in southwestern Illinois.
