Holy Infant Alumni

Holy Infant Alumni Alumni Page for all of the graduates of Holy Infant Catholic School in Ballwin, Mo In May of 1954, Rev. Robert J. Schwegel was notified by Most Reverend Joseph E.

Ritter, Archbishop of St. Louis, that he would become the first pastor of Holy Infant Parish. The Ellisville Athletic Building served as a temporary church, while a more permanent location was decided. In the spring of 1956, six acres on the east side of New Ballwin Road were selected. The construction of the church and school were underway and the next task was at hand. On September 4, 1956, Holy

Infant School opened its doors with Mrs. Virginia Kunz as principal and a total lay faculty assisting her. There were 275 children in kindergarten through eighth grade. In 1957, the Sisters of Mercy of Drogheda, County Meath, Ireland, agreed to come to America to staff Holy Infant School. The founding sisters, Mary Xavier O'Donnell, Mary Berchmanns Digon, Mary Gerturde Duffy and Mary Bosco Doly settled at this small parish, that will soon thrive in the years to come.
