St. Mary's Dominican High School Veritas Shield

Student Profile

Ella Goings

Soccer, 2022 State Championship Team

I chose Dominican because every time I went to DominiCamp or an Open House, the faculty and students were so welcoming and accepting. I always felt a special connection to Dominican, and every time I was there, I knew it was the place I wanted to spend my five years of high school.

'Angelle Nash

Students for Human Dignity and Diversity in Action President

When I think of Dominican, the pillar of service is a huge part of our experience and therefore stands out the most. From our school-wide service projects like the canned food drive to smaller club efforts, service is one of the most important parts of my Dominican experience.

Class of 2026

Dominican, whether you're talking about the community, prayer, service, or even academics, has a special aspect that can make bright-eyed middle-schoolers eager to come and be a part of it all (including me). Not only does Dominican push every single one of us to be more academically inclined, but it also pushes you to step out of your comfort zone with the support of your peers and teachers. Along with a strong sense of community comes close friendships. Seeing everyone forming sisterly bonds that would last a lifetime is what truly made me choose Dominican.

Student Profile

Megan Douglass

Student Preacher

Throughout my high school career, my prayer life and my relationship with God have grown stronger because I am surrounded by students and teachers who model faith and inspire me to become closer to God.

Minseo “Claire” Kim

Craft Club President

Community is the pillar that means the most to me. Because of my good friends and teachers, the Dominican community makes me a better person every day. This community makes my Dominican student experience so special.

Kelci Lewis

Drama Club

I chose Dominican because I loved the drama program. When I was in middle school, I came to the spring musical and thought, “One day I’m going to be on that stage.” Now, I participate in the arts here!

Hayley Adorno

National Art Honor Society

Be open-minded and seek new opportunities. Join clubs and become involved at Dominican. From joining clubs and sports teams such as National Arts Honors Society and the soccer team, I have everlasting ties with those with whom I share interests. Dominican is the perfect place to find your interests, life-long friends, and yourself!

Camille “CC” Truxillo

Academic Games

Through the Dominican pillar of community, I have become part of a true sisterhood. Dominican’s incredible environment brings us all—students, faculty, and staff—closer together through our shared focus on learning, helping others, and growing closer to God through our Dominican education.

Student Profile

Aline Elfer

Class of 2026

Dominican's environment allows and encourages room for growth and improvement. At Dominican, I feel welcomed, accepted, and appreciated.

Although all of the four pillars are important, community is the most important to me. Whether it's the toy drive for Dominican's neighbors or visiting the Chateau de Notre Dame Nursing home, community is essential to the Dominican experience. Within the school’s own community, friendships last lifetimes, and the Dominican bond will never be forgotten.
