The accomplishments of the Seton graduates is not only a reflection of the excellence of Seton Catholic High School, but of all the feeder schools in the Region 7 of the Diocese of Scranton, as well: Holy Rosary School, Duryea; Sacred Heart of Jesus School, Dupont, PA; St. Mary's Assumption, Pittston, PA; Wyoming Area Catholic School, Exeter, PA; and, of course, our two beloved elementary Catholic parocial schools which we lost last year, St. John the Baptist School in Pittston and Saint Mary's School in Avoca, PA. These schools are among the finest of all public, private and/or parochial schools in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.
Most of the students of the Seton Catholic High School Class of 2005 - and all other classes - come from these Catholic elementary schools.
