Des Moines Regional Catholic Schools

In January 2022, the 12 Catholic schools in Des Moines formed a new entity – Des Moines Regional Catholic Schools. The regional model allows Catholic schools to centralize business functions, leverage collective resources, and implement best business practices to sustain the future of Catholic education within the Diocese of Des Moines.
 

Regionalization is underway, and the admissions procedures across Catholic schools are changing. 

Enrollment Priority

The Region prioritizes current students and their siblings first, members of Catholic parishes second, and the general community third. The Region and school administrators accept applicants based on the application time stamp, available space, admissions review processes, and consideration for students’ best interests.

Current families can re-enroll Early Childhood through 11th-grade students, apply for younger children to enter Early Childhood or Kindergarten, and apply for older students to transfer from public schools.
