A FINAL FAREWELL...

This is a year for excitement. The school celebrates its 70th anniversary with all the sense of accomplishment
and pride that comes with reaching that milestone. The Class of ’98 is the first class to graduate in the Essen­
tial School Program and rightly takes pride in their accomplishments. They have set a standard for all the fol­
lowing classes to measure up to.
This is also a year of sadness. The Maryknoll priests will be leaving Sacred Heart parish. For the first time, Mary-
knoll Schools will not have an official link to the Maryknoll priests and sisters who had the vision to found the school
so long ago. But even in this parting by the Maryknoll priests, there is reason for pride.

Maryknoll is a mission order. To paraphrase Bishop Walsh, one of the founders of Maryknoll, a missionary is
asked to go where he is needed but not loved and then to leave when he is loved but no longer needed. The Maryknoll
priests, brothers, and sisters have done their job here. They are telling us that it is now up to us to continue in the
spirit of their work, to proclaim the Gospel around the world by working for justice and peace.

For 70 years of dedication, thank you.
For touching the lives of over 4,000 graduates who attended Maryknoll Schools, thank you.
For sharing with us your vision as a guide for our efforts in the future, thank you.
