St. Theodore Guerin High School is a private Roman Catholic college-preparatory high school located in Noblesville, Indiana, a northern Indianapolis suburb. The school's mascot is the Golden Eagle and school colors are purple and gold. It is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Lafayette in Indiana. The enrollment is mostly drawn from local suburban municipalities such as Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield, and Zionsville, as well as northern Marion County and Kokomo, Indiana.

History

Founded in 2004, St. Theodore Guerin High School was named after Saint Mother Théodore Guérin. Guerin Catholic was the first privately funded Catholic high school built in the state of Indiana in over thirty years.[4] The first graduating class in 2007 consisted of 25 students, with 100% matriculating into four-year colleges.[4]

Academics

In the fall of 2006, St. Theodore Guerin became the first Catholic high school in Greater Indianapolis to become a candidate to offer the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program.[5]

St. Theodore Guerin has been recognized by The Cardinal Newman Society and the Catholic Education Honor Roll each year since 2008 as one of the USA's "Top 50 Catholic High Schools." Guerin Catholic is one of only three Catholic high schools in the state of Indiana to receive this award.[6] Catholic high schools that receive the honor roll designation are marked by excellence in academics and the integration of Catholic identity throughout all aspects of their educational and extracurricular programs. Nearly one in twenty of the Catholic high schools in the United States receive this recognition.[6]

Athletics

The Guerin Catholic Golden Eagles are members of the Circle City Conference, but prior to 2016-2017 they were independent. The school colors are purple and gold. The following Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) sanctioned varsity sports are offered:[7]

  • Baseball (boys)
  • Basketball (boys and girls)
  • Cross country (boys and girls)
  • Football (boys)
  • Golf (boys and girls)
  • Soccer (boys and girls)
  • Softball (girls)
  • Swimming (boys and girls)
  • Tennis (boys and girls)
  • Track (boys and girls)
  • Volleyball (girls)
  • Wrestling (boys)

A strong rivalry exists between Guerin Catholic and Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School. The two schools are quite similar in that both are Catholic and are co-educational schools on the north side of the Indianapolis metropolitan area.[8]
