A member of our Pioneer family, Tori Thomas, is destined for great heights. From her days setting records on the Alleman track to her dominant collegiate career at the University of Illinois, Tori has consistently pushed the boundaries of the pole vault. Now, as a post-collegiate athlete, she has officially shifted her focus to the world stage: the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

We are excited to announce Daniel Terronez as our new Head Wrestling Coach at Alleman High School!

Over the past two years, the Alleman Athletic Complex has undergone a series of renovations designed to enhance the experience for Pioneer student-athletes and fans. These improvements were made possible through the generosity of alumni, families, and local businesses who continue to support Alleman athletics. 

The Alleman Math Team delivered an extraordinary performance at Regionals, earning 1st Place Overall for the 7th consecutive year, a testament to the hard work, discipline, and determination of these outstanding Pioneers. 

Congratulations to Theresa Hoffman who won the State Level of the Knights of Columbus Essay Contest for the 10th grade. 

Generosity is essential to our mission of developing young men and women of faith and character. We are deeply grateful to donors and their families who just recently establish new, named scholarships in memory of their loved one, ensuring a Catholic education remains accessible for all families. These scholarships are a permanent testament to their legacy and a connection to the students who follow in their footsteps. 

Five of our Alleman students attended the SEEK Catholic Conference in Columbus, Ohio, in January with Fr. Martini and Sr. Teresa.

Step into the spotlight and celebrate the rich legacy of performance at Alleman Catholic High School. The Alleman Drama Department recognizes its most influential contributors through the Drama Hall of Fame, ensuring that the talent, dedication, and “theatrical magic” is never forgotten. This year’s inductees are Kay O’Brien and Sue Williams. 

Lent is just around the corner, which means our annual Fish Fry is almost here! The Alleman Fish Fry is scheduled for Friday, March 6th from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. in the cafeteria. This is also the same evening as the Spring Meet the Pioneers event. All proceeds from the Fish Fry will support our athletic programs. 

We are excited to announce the newest class to be inducted into the Alleman Athletics Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame recognizes outstanding individual and team accomplishments and highlights the values of teamwork, discipline, and the pursuit of excellence that define the spirit of Alleman Catholic High School. 

Planned giving is a meaningful way to make a lasting impact. Bequests, charitable gift annuities, and other planned gifts strengthen Alleman’s long-term sustainability, allowing us to plan for the future with confidence.

Edward (Ed) Lerch, born in Rock Island in 1894, was the gifted architect behind Alleman High School, that has continued to serve generations of students and families. 

We are grateful to our alumni and friends whose generosity has made scholarships possible, opening the door to a Catholic education for more families. This past year we awarded over $90,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors, incoming freshman and current students for the 2025-2026 school year. 

Congratulations to Claire Mehochko and Caden Jenulis, who both received Letters of Commendation from the 2026 National Merit Scholarship Program!

“I am about to attend the 50th year high school reunion for “kids” I taught in 1975 when I was a teacher at Alleman Catholic High School. I can’t help reflecting on how I achieved that place in my life and how it helped me succeed in the next chapter of my life.”

The Alleman football program returned to Varsity play under Friday night lights for the first time in three years on Friday, August 29, and for the first time in program history, debuted new alternative black uniforms!
