Letter from the President
Dear Alumna,
It is hard to believe that the school year comes to a close in less than two weeks. This Tuesday, we gathered to celebrate the members of the Class of 2023 as they graduated at The Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. We were grateful to welcome Most Reverend Bruce Lewandowski to preside over the Baccalaureate Liturgy. I am beyond proud of this year's graduating class for receiving over $17,000,000 in college scholarships, grants, and awards ⏤ a new benchmark for a TCHS graduating class. I am certain that these seventy-four young women will let their light shine and transform the world as they begin their new journeys beyond Catholic High.
I hope to see you at our two remaining events of the year ⏤ the summer Alumnae Social at the Crazy Tuna Bar & Grille on June 15 and our annual Cub Classic Golf Outing on June 26. More details can be found in this newsletter. Have a safe and restful summer!
Lux Tua Luceat,

2023 Baccalaureate Liturgy and Commencement |
Tuesday, May 23, was a beautiful day for Catholic High as we held our Baccalaureate Liturgy and Commencement Exercises for seventy-four graduates of the Class of 2023! Each year, the graduating class continues to amaze us as they set new benchmarks for future graduating classes of Catholic High.
We are pleased to announce that our Seniors earned over $17,000,000 in college scholarships, grants, and awards, setting a new record for the highest amount earned by a Catholic High graduating class. Members of the Class of 2023 were also accepted into 118 colleges and universities across the United States and overseas.
Catholic High is extremely proud of this group of talented young women! We cannot wait for them to let their lights shine in college and beyond!

Our young women in the Honors and College Preparatory Foundations of STEM course recently took a field trip to NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center! Both photos were taken by the observation area adjacent to the largest clean room of its kind in the world, where a new space telescope is currently being assembled. The new telescope, named in honor of Nancy Grace Roman, NASA's first Chief of Astronomy, is of the same resolution as the Hubble, but is capable of capturing a much wider area.
This was truly an amazing experience for our Freshmen in the STEM Program!

The Alumnae Christmas and Giving Project Update
Dear Alumnae,
Below is a thank you letter from the Archdiocesan Grief Ministry that the Giving Project received this week:
"Thanks to all who have contributed toward purchasing perishable groceries for families affected by the murders in Baltimore City. Please rest assured your efforts mattered. This ministry is a channel of God's love, a person-to-person bridge that shows compassion and care. We also know that many of the families who experienced the murder of a loved one also live in food deserts and struggle financially. As one of the Homicide Survivor Advocates recently stood and watched a woman unpack her care package, she became overwhelmed with gratitude. I wanted to share this as a reminder that something as simple as a bag of groceries can have a meaningful impact!”
If you are interested in assisting with the Alumnae Giving Project, please reach out to me at the contact information below.
Gratefully,
Bonita (Bonnie) Lee '60
