Our guest speaker, Dr. David Cochran, is a professor of politics at Loras College and an Associate at the new Rome-based Catholic Institute for Nonviolence.

We welcomed some very special guests back to school today as part of Faith Formations senior class walkthrough. The visit started with current elementary students offering a prayer for the high school graduates before going out to enjoy recess together. We're so proud of all our alumni's accomplishments and we know they're going to do even more great things in the future!
