Mission Statement 

Education is the foundation of every person’s future. However, education for the future is becoming considerably expensive.  The Catholic values of faith, worship and service, taught here at Monsignor Donovan High School are invaluable.  The actual tools of education come with a high price tag.

It is the goal of the Office of Institutional Advancement and Alumni Relations to plan and direct the future vision of MDHS.  By promoting and building relationships among the school and our parents and grandparents (past and present,) alumni, friends, businesses and organizations, we can ensure that the excellence of a Monsignor Donovan High School education is offered not only to today’s students, but future generations as well.
