Background

McAuley Catholic High School was established in 1885.[1] The school has celebrated over 125 years of Catholic education in the Joplin area.[2]

Recent Changes

The school was forced to convert their nearby storage building into the replacement elementary school over the summer as the original was destroyed in a tornado on May 22, 2011. [1] Due to limited space in the temporary elementary building, McAuley lets the elementary use their facilities for PE, lunch, and art classes.

Notable alumni

  • Ron Richard (1965) Missouri Speaker of the House of Representatives
  • C. W. Moss (2006) Author and illustrator of "Unicorn Being a Jerk"
