We gathered together on May 8 for a very special Time & Eternity Mass to celebrate the end of another incredible school year on 99th Street!

During the assembly, our school community recognized two faculty & staff members who will be retiring: Ms. Kathy Gordon Davis and Mrs. Peggy Evans Rourke '76. Thank you for your remarkable dedication to our school community, and congratulations on your retirement!

To conclude the assembly, the Class of 2026 took an oath to officially be inducted as Mother McAuley Alumnae. They joined a network of over 29,000 women across the globe who are proud to be Mighty Macs!
