Alumni E-Newsletter - June 2022 |
On Friday June 10, 2022, Roman Catholic High School held the 129th Baccalaureate Mass and Commencement Exercises for the graduating Class of 2022 in the beautiful and majestic Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter & Paul. The Class of 2022 is made up of 188 talented and gifted students who were awarded a record-breaking 32 million dollars in scholarships and grants to attend a variety of prestigious local and national post-secondary institutions including the University of Pennsylvania and Villanova University.
The Class of 2022 will be attending colleges in 16 different states from New England to Florida and from New Jersey to Washington State. Over ninety percent of this year's graduating class will be continuing their education at colleges, trade schools or apprenticeships and five percent will be entering the workforce. Several of our graduates will be serving our country in the military.
With the Class of 2022, Roman Catholic High School continues to demonstrate the success of its rigorous, faith-based program that prepares young men for the future. As a community, we should be rightfully proud to witness our students develop into life-long learners, ready to take their place and make their mark on the world! Again, congratulations and good luck to the Class of 2022! Welcome to the Alumni Association!

The following is a message from Father Bongard '77, President / Rector It is with mixed emotions that I announce the departure of Adam Gault '08 as Director of Development. Having worked in the Mission Advancement office for over four years, Adam has done a remarkable job. He connected with present students, alumni, and supporters of Roman. The Annual Fund, EITC program and Day of Giving have exceeded expectations every year under his leadership. But more than just raising money, Adam was an outstanding ambassador for all things Roman. His passion & commitment to advancing the mission of Thomas Cahill was nonpareil. Countless young men and their families have been helped because of his efforts. As Adam now transitions to the Advancement Office of Saint Joseph's University, as Director of Annual Fund Campaigns, I express, on behalf of the entire Roman Community, our sincere and heartfelt thanks for his years of service, for the funds he raised for our students, for the lives he changed and most importantly, for the friendship he shared. We are a better school because of his efforts and he will be missed! |
In appreciation for the success of the Annual Day of Giving and for all of the support Roman receives year round, we held our third annual Day of Gratitude on Friday, June 17, 2022 -- A day for us to publicly thank you and all supporters of Roman. All of our social media platforms presented personal messages, postings and reflections from our administration, faculty, staff and most importantly our students expressing their appreciation for your support.
