Hello .I am an alumni from 1975 Freshmen thru 1979 Graduate of DSHA. I had the most positive experience as a student . The environment was and is a complete focus on what a well rounded, culturally cultivated woman should ultimately practice and embrace-. CHRIST LIKE LIVES. Yes there will always be strict and challenging studies, as well as sound validation for wholesome achievements. I am very thankful for my parents paying the cost for my education at DSHA. As well as all of my facility from my tenure there. I went on to accomplish Music Education Major at UWM. And have taught students from K4-8th grade at 2 Catholic Schools. May THE LORD keep HIS HOLY HANDS UPON DSHA- World Without end- in JESUS' name I pray- A'men.

I am a DSHA alumna, as well as a current volunteer. I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to attend this school. Prior to high school, I was an MPS and then a WAWM public school student. DSHA is such a positive world of difference compared to public schools. The teachers at DSHA truly care about the girls, ALL of the girls. They expect excellence because they know you are capable of excellence. They truly care and want to see you do well. This is not just a "paycheck" for them. The academics are stellar with an abundance of AP courses offered. How many high schools can say not only did 100% of students graduate, but were ALSO accepted into 4-year universities? Very few.DSHA has a fantastic athletic program as well with quite a few championships. Many athletes are student scholars. Lastly, DSHA is a school centered around the Catholic faith with theology classes, retreats, and service opportunities. A student does not have to be Catholic though to attend as there are students of Jewish, Muslim, and Protestant faiths.DSHA transforms girls in to strong, confident, well-rounded, educated young ladies ready to take on the world! A DSHA grad is a force to be reckoned with.Please do not take my word for it though. Visit their website, and check them out. Their statistics speak for themselves.
