History
The school was founded in 1863 as St. Louis College, a Catholic boys' school taught by the Oblate Fathers. Initially located on Humboldt Street, it soon moved to a permanent location on Pandora Avenue, where it was the first brick building in Victoria. In 1915, responsibility for the school was given over to the Congregation of Christian Brothers. The Christian Brothers departed in 1968, at which point the school became co-educational and was renamed to St. Andrews School. In 1984 the school moved to its current location and became St. Andrew's Regional High School.
