De Andreis High School
After a career of nearly 35 years
as a north side Roman Catholic secondary educational institution,
De Andreis High School closed its doors early in 1976 because of declining
enrollment. It began in 1942 as North
Side Catholic High School for boys
in conjunction with Laboure girl's high school in the latter's
building at 5421 Thekla Avenue. The boy's school moved into the
newly completed De Andreis 4275 Clarence Avenue, in 1947. Operated
by the Brothers of Mary, the school was named for Rev. Felix
De Andreis, an early St. Louis Catholic educator. In 1952, both
De Andreis and Laboure became co-educational and remained so
until 1965 when they reverted to their former singular status.
