St. Dominic Regional High School is a Catholic high school located in Auburn, Maine, in the Diocese of Portland.

Conceived by Rev. Herve Drouin, the pastor of Sts. Peter and Paul Parish, St. Dominic was founded in 1941. The original school was located in the former Dominican Club on Bartlett Street in Lewiston, and was run by the Brothers of the Sacred Heart, primarily used to teach the young boys of the parish about the faith.

In 1945, the first class of 20 young men was graduated. The following year a four-year school for women was instated by the Dominican Sisters.

In 1956 the ice arena which had provided the majority of the money to the school, burned down. For ten years after this unfortunate event the school struggled to keep up with expenses. In 1966, the Dominican Sisters could no longer provide teachers, and the Dominican Fathers handed the legal title of the school over to the Diocese of Portland.

In the fall of 1998 plans for a new building in Auburn. On August 8, 2000 the ground breaking ceremony took place and the school opened on January 6, 2002.
