Bishop Canevin High School | SEPTEMBER 2019
|
|
From Principal Michael Joyce
|
Greetings!
Bishop Canevin's 60th anniversary provides the opportunity for all of us Crusaders to reflect and celebrate on our school's storied past and exciting future. Recently, I had the privilege of accompanying Fr. Julian (see photo below) and the editors of the
Leonid
from the Class of 1969 on a tour of the campus. Listening to them recall their fond memories and experiences it was evident that Canevin had a significant impact on their lives. While our building sparked memories of classmates, favorite teachers, and conversations on the separation of the B side from the G side, it also provided the opportunity for the class to see the many upgrades, renovations, and enhancements that have helped transform Bishop Canevin into a 21st century educational institution that remains rooted in the same core values and faith formation that make our school so special. Fifty years from now I aspire our current Crusaders to be able to walk the halls, experience the same deep connection, and have the same fondness and appreciation when recalling their days at Bishop Canevin.
Sincerely,
Michael Joyce
Principal
P.S.: I hope to meet many of you at one of our upcoming events. Our calendar is packed! Check out our full event listing below.
