McAuley Catholic High School is a private, parochial school in Joplin, Missouri.
Located in the Diocese of Springfield-Cape Girardeau, it is a regional school serving Joplin and the surrounding communities; it has an enrollment of approximately 70 students. It is accredited by the Missouri Association for Accreditation of Non-Public Schools.
McAuley Catholic High School was established in 1885. [1] The school has celebrated over 135 years of Catholic education in the Joplin area. [2]
The school was forced to convert their nearby storage building into the replacement elementary school over the summer of 2011 as the original was destroyed in a deadly tornado on May 22, 2011. In 2016 the building was used for St. Peter's Middle School as St. Mary's Elementary school has built a new building at 3025 S Central City Rd.
In 2021, St. Peter's Middle School was moved to the building of McAuley High School. [3]
