History
St. Dominic School was founded in 1929 during an economic depression, with the parish’s first pastor, Fr. James Maloney, encouraging parishioners to make sacrifices to build the school. The school has grown over the decades with key additions including classrooms and a cafeteria in 1964, a new entrance, offices, library, and gym in 2010, and the Alltech science lab in 2012. The parish continues to rely on stewardship — giving of time, talent, and treasure — to sustain its mission.
