Alumnae Board President's Welcome
Dear Fellow Alumnae,
Welcome Comets! The 2022-2023 academic school year ended in June, and we have enthusiastically entered the 2023-2024 academic school year. We give thanks for the wonderful and meaningful year that just ended and we congratulate and pray for the Senior Class of 2023 as they pursue their higher education. We anticipate the day they will return to their Alma Mater and share their successes and achievements. In these uncertain times, it is reassuring to know that our Alma Mater continues to be strong and to provide the excellent education that allows students to achieve their highest potential.
To begin, we are excited to introduce the Board Officers of the Sacred Heart High School (SHHS) Alumnae Association for the coming year through June 2025:
