For many of our legacy families, they can think of no better gift to give the young women in their ranks—be they daughters, granddaughters, nieces or siblings—than the gift of a Holy Child education.

It’s a Thursday morning, the eve of Graduation day, and the Class of 2017 is flipping through the pages of their new yearbooks. Students laugh with their mothers as they recall the memories of the last year and re-live them through the photos spread across the pages in front of them. Maureen Grant is sharing this moment with her daughter, Caitlin, who was just one day shy of becoming a Connelly School of the Holy Child alumna.

On June 12th, after a month of fun-filled celebrations and heartfelt tributes, Mary Hopkins walked out the doors of Connelly Hall for the last time as a Holy Child employee. This past summer, Hopkins and her husband, Chip, moved to Richmond, VA.

Connecting with our Holy Child Network of schools, sophomores Lily Hagerup and Charlotte Bell traveled to Dublin, Ireland, and attended Holy Child School Killiney for three weeks while staying with a host family.

Our Upper School talents in the arts were in full force for our musical production of The Wizard of Oz last Spring. Our cast and crew of over 50 students and faculty brought the classic story of Dorothy Gale and Oz to life.

The mission of our school explicitly expresses Holy Child’s dedication to welcoming “students and families of different faiths and diverse backgrounds,” while valuing “the uniqueness of each individual.”
