Saint Mary's College High School is proud to present our newest Golden Grad Honorees, the class of 1975!! Six representatives from the class of 1975 joined us Wednesday night in The Auditorium for our Baccalaureate Mass. As a graduate of 50 years ago we have a tradition of honoring these men as Golden Grads. They get to walk in after the current graduating class and they receive Golden Diplomas during the ceremony. Father Landeza spoke very highly of them during his homily as we recognize each of them who were able to make it. We are very proud to have them back on campus and will be celebrating a 50 year Reunion in the fall of 2025.

Last Saturday, April 26th we hosted the class of 1965 here on Peralta Park. They came in from all over the United States to celebrate their 60th Reunion! We had over 40 people attend this amazing afternoon as some folks have not seen each other in over 25 years. The bond this class had and still has is truly incredible. We started the afternoon talking and laughing, then singing the Bells of Saint Mary's before enjoying lunch, and concluded with a tour of a much changed campus since 1965. The guys and their spouses truly enjoyed wondering the campus, visiting the Chapel, Gym and Brady Park. I was inspired by their passion for Saint Mary's that still drives this class today, as they continue their tradition of giving back through their 1965 Scholarship fund. We look forward to seeing everyone in another 5 years!!

During Lasallian days the Juniors and Seniors, who are not on retreat, get to experience Career Day which is a Saint Mary's tradition of bringing back Alums who talk about their experiences after high school and what led them to their current Careers. It is a great opportunity for our current students to ask questions to people who sat in their same shoes years ago. This year we had 7 amazing Alums ranging from the class of 1986 up to the class of 2011, from entrepreneurs, tech industry workers, doctors, influencers and designers. We are so appreciative that they are able to give back to the current community and the kids were very engaged and learned a lot.
