Superintendent's Letter: Congratulations to our graduating Classes of 2019

My Dear Friends,

Our pre-kindergarten to grade 8 schools and high schools have successfully completed another academic and spiritual year in the Diocese.

Our students are self-disciplined, self-motivated, responsible, athletic and creative. It is truly a time to celebrate their accomplishments and to thank you for supporting our Catholic schools.

Please join me in congratulating and praying for our high school graduates from the class of 2019. I am proud to announce that the extremely high college acceptance rate of our seniors reflects the dedication of the administration, faculty and staff members at the Academy of the Holy Family, Mercy High School, St. Bernard School, Xavier High School and our pre-k through 8 schools.

Have a wonderful summer filled with God’s abundant blessings.

May the joy of the Risen Jesus be with your families always,

Henry Fiore Jr.

Superintendent of Schools
