Letter from the President
Dear Alumna,
It is hard to believe that the school year comes to a close in two short weeks. This Tuesday, we gathered to celebrate the members of the Class of 2022 as they graduated at The Cathedral of Mary Our Queen. I am beyond proud of this year's graduating class for receiving $13,182,179 in college scholarships, grants, and awards. These young women are sure to let their light shine brightly as they begin their new journeys beyond Catholic High.
I hope to see you at our summer Alumnae Social at the Crazy Tuna Bar & Grille on June 1 or our annual Cub Classic Golf Outing on June 20!
Lux Tua Luceat,
