Duchesne High School is a small, private, coeducational, Catholic high school in St. Charles, Missouri, USA, in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Saint Louis. The name commemorates St. Rose Philippine Duchesne, whose pioneering spirit was the driving force behind her missionary work throughout the region. Duchesne is classified as a regional high school by the Archdiocese of St. Louis, which means that certain parishes are "assigned" to this school as the primary areas served.
Duchesne High School was established as St. Peter High School in 1924. The school moved to its current location in 1956 and was renamed Duchesne Catholic High School.
Duchesne is a member of the Archdiocesan Athletic Association and of the Missouri State High School Activities Association.
Varsity teams have earned 76 conference titles, 87 district titles, have made 56 appearances in the state final four (up to 2009), and have won 15 state championships.[2] On March 11, 2020, led by Jack Johnsen (Captain), Jack Boschert, Kevin Burke, and Derek Cagle (Alternate Captain), the Duchesne hockey team captured its first Wickenheiser Cup Championship in a 3–1 win over Oakville.The girls' soccer team won its sixth overall state title in 2019 (their 5th state title in 7 years) as well as the conference and district titles.[3] The girls' soccer team has also won State Championships in 2009, 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.[4]
