Bishop Ireton HS

bishop ireton is a college preparatory, coeducational high school serving students from across the washington metropolitan area in grades 9 through 12. founded in 1964, bishop ireton is owned by the diocese of arlington, and is rooted in the tradition of salesian spirituality taught to us by the religious congregation of the oblates of st. francis de sales, our founding religious order. as we follow our live jesus! charter, we continue an affiliation with the oblates of st. francis de sales and will interact with other salesian groups as well, as we collaborate on projects that express our mutual devotion to the spirituality of st. francis de sales and st. jane de chantal. bishop ireton is fortunate to have dedicated lay faculty and staff, as well as a full time chaplain from the diocese of arlington and teachers and administrators from the sisters of the holy cross and franciscan religious communities. faculty teach their students according to the unique spirit of st. francis de sales, teacher, missionary, bishop, and gentle saint.
