1 SCHOOL HISTORY AND PROFILE

Founded in 1921 and sponsored by the Pallottine Missionary Sisters, St. Vincent Pal- lotti High School is the oldest Catholic coeducational, college preparatory, secondary school in the Washington area. Pallotti pursues its mission of promoting academic excellence and building Christian character in a small community atmosphere of approximately 450 students.

The School is fully accredited by the State of Maryland, the Middle States Associa- tion of Colleges and Schools, and the Association of Independent Maryland Schools (AIMS).

ST. VINCENT PALLOTTI & THE PALLOTTINE MISSIONARY SISTERS

Our school’s patron, St. Vincent Pallotti, was a Catholic priest who lived in Rome from 1795-1850. Despite being small in stature and often in ill health, St. Vincent ac- complished an incredible amount in his lifetime. He founded a night school for workers and their families, ran a youth group for young men in a rough neighborhood in Rome, worked as a chaplain in the military hospital and the local prison, was a be- loved seminary professor, founded an orphanage, started the first known food stamp program, and worked in numerous other ministries. He is considered the pio- neer of lay ministry because he dedicated himself to involving people from all walks of life in the ministry of the Church.

St. Vincent founded the Sisters of the Catholic Apostolate (SAC) in 1835 to run an orphanage for girls who lost their parents in a cholera epidemic. Later, a group of the sisters formed a new congregation, the Missionary Sisters of the Catholic Aposto- late, to carry their work of charity and evangelization throughout the world. These “Pallottine” Missionary Sisters came to America in 1912. Among many other ministries, the sisters acquired the Catholic high school in Laurel, Maryland, then known as St. Mildred’s Academy, and have administered the school ever since. The sisters later renamed the school after their patron, St. Vincent Pallotti.
