You've done it--you're high school bound! Congratulations on your graduation, Class of 2026. Though you're moving on... Alphonsus will always be your home.

It's graduation day! Here's to you, Class of 2026. We can't wait to see what you'll accomplish in the future 🚀

Eighth graders enjoy many special culminating events as including a field trip to DC, a tailgate, Pin Day Mass, and, of course, graduation. However, this year, they added the Rockets Rocket Launch!! During STEM class, students applied principles of physics, math, and aerodynamics to create custom rockets (in their future high schools' colors) and air/water launchers. Then, they sent them off on their final day of school 🚀

So proud of you! You’re almost there—happy pin day, Class of 2026!

Happy 🎓 week!! Tailgate tomorrow, pin day mass Wednesday, and grad on Thursday!

Proud of our Class of 2026!

Once a Rocket, Always a Rocket!

So proud of our graduates of the class of 2026!

Congratulations to our class of 2026!
