Photos from the 2008 Alumnae Reunion
The monastery welcomed some very special guests this weekend. Alumnae Day 2008 brought over 150 Academy alumnae and their families back to “the hill” for their annual reunion. Many from the anniversary classes gathered on Saturday to celebrate and reminisce with classmates and faculty members. On Sunday, alums attended Mass in the monastery church, followed by a dinner, meeting, and more visiting and celebrating. We sisters consider the alumnae part of our “extended family” and appreciate their visits throughout the year, as well as on their reunion weekend.
Faculty members, 1998 graduates, and children pose for this photo at a cookout the 1998 class had by the former Academy Art Studio.
