On September 19, over 175 parents, alumni, parents of alumni and grandparents gathered under a tent on the West Campus fields for the Leadership Society Reception. This annual event celebrates the tremendous generosity and support of our Leadership donors.
Fr. John Arens opened the program with a prayer. Devin Condron ’92, P’29,’29, our new President of the Board of Trustees, then gave remarks, thanking all in attendance for their philanthropic support: “Each person here has contributed directly to the evolution of this magnificent institution that is St. Sebastian's today. You have stood up as leaders in our community and helped usher our beloved school into the future.” He recounted the financial successes of FY2024, as well as previous campaigns, including $12 million raised for endowment over the past three years. Devin noted that “we’re off to a great start” with Brendan Sullivan P’25,’29 as our 10th Head of School.
Brendan began his remarks by sharing how full his heart is and how thankful he is for the St. Sebastian’s community. He expressed his gratitude to our Leadership donors. He also recognized the many talented people surrounding him, including the administrative team, outstanding faculty, and Board of Trustees, including a special mention of Devin and how excited he is to work with him. Brendan went on to discuss the recently published Strategic Plan which provides a blueprint for strategic initiatives in the coming years, stating that this is “a truly exciting time in the School’s history.”
Father Michael Drea provided a few inspirational words and a closing prayer. All in attendance had a wonderful time reconnecting and reminiscing. Thank you to everyone for supporting St. Sebastian’s School!
