St. Edward High School, high school in Ohio, United States
St. Edward High School is a high school in Lakewood, Ohio, featuring a distinctive large building with a gold dome and green and gold colors. The campus includes a chapel where students gather for prayer or events, along with multiple buildings and fields for football, wrestling, and ice hockey.
The school was founded in 1949 by the Brothers of Holy Cross and is closely tied to the growth of Catholic education in the Cleveland suburbs. It was the first in the area to offer a pre-engineering program, which began in 2001.
The school is named after Saint Edward the Confessor and also honors Archbishop Edward Hoban, who helped bring the Brothers of Holy Cross to the Cleveland area after World War II. This naming reflects the school's Catholic roots and its connection to local religious history.
The campus is well organized with separate areas for academic classes, athletic facilities, and the chapel, making it easy to navigate. Classes follow a standard school year calendar, and visitors should expect normal operations during school days.
The school's ice hockey team holds a record for winning more state championships than any other team in Ohio. This extraordinary achievement in hockey makes the school a well-known name in the region's winter sports.
