From the President
DEAR ST. JOHN’S COMMUNITY,
As I embark on this new chapter of my life, I am filled with immense gratitude for the kind words, heartfelt messages, and public recognitions during the month of May. These expressions of appreciation and support mean more to me than words can adequately express. It has been an honor to carry on the mission of the De La Salle Christian Brothers with a tremendous board, leadership team, faculty, and staff.
As you will read in this issue, the students, faculty, and alumni have been engaged in numerous activities and have exceled at the highest levels. A spring musical that brought the house down, national recognition for the performing arts, seven WCAC athletic championships, and seven DCSAA titles are just a few of the highlights.
In particular, I wish to acknowledge the success of the Class of 2024. The intellect and drive of this class is extraordinary. They have earned more than $45.5 million in college scholarships and secured acceptances to the most competitive colleges in the country. We are very proud!
Colleges, universities, and academies our newest alumni will be attending include the Berkley College of Music, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth University, Duke University, Georgetown University, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Chicago, University of Notre Dame, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, the U.S. Military Academy, and the U.S. Naval Academy.
From my early beginnings on Military Road in 1999, I have experienced joy every day in my work with the students, faculty, and alumni. Thank you, St. John’s College High School! It has been a privilege for my family to be part of this community for the past 25 years.
St. John Baptist de La Salle… Pray for us. Live Jesus in our hearts… Forever.
Enjoy this issue! Go Cadets!
Sincerely,
