With heavy hearts, we are saddened to announce the passing of Harold Burris. Harold came to St. Agnes Academy in 1983 and taught math and science, primarily Physics, for 34 years. He was a teacher, mentor and friend to many within our community and leaves behind a tremendous legacy.
Harold shared not only his knowledge of physics, but also his passion for discovery, truth and wonder. Through lessons taught in classrooms and conversations shared in hallways, he shaped generations of Academy women. His dedication became a gift to this school community and a lasting part of St. Agnes Academy.
May we honor Harold’s life by continuing to seek truth, serve others generously and care deeply for those around us as he did.

From signing the senior book to receiving Dominican-style rosaries and hearing their very first chant of “seniors first,” today marked a meaningful milestone in their St. Agnes journey. Many students also received their St. Agnes Academy rings, a cherished symbol of the lifelong sisterhood shared by Academy women across generations. 💛🖤

We are so very blessed by the generations of Academy women who have walked our halls. At our Legacy Luncheon, we celebrated the alumnae mothers, grandmothers, aunts, cousins, and sisters who have helped shape the spirit of St. Agnes Academy through faith, wisdom, and Dominican values. Their examples of leadership, service, and sisterhood continue to inspire the next generation of Academy women to seek truth, lead with compassion, and live out Veritas each day.
