Celebrate the Academy
Thank you to everyone who was a part of our sold-out crowd and helped us “Celebrate the Academy” Under Construction!
We were honored to celebrate the accomplishments of Anne Marie Carey Pecon ’71 and the Lisa Hagan Berry ’81 Tuition Trust who have both made a lasting impact on Saint Joseph Academy.
This amazing evening raised more than $430,000 for support of tuition assistance and academic initiatives at Saint Joseph Academy! We are grateful for all of our sponsors, guests, donors and event committee who made this incredible event possible.
Thank you again for your infectious energy, kindness and support. It was truly a night to remember.
Sursum corda!
Save the date for "Celebrate the Academy" next year, February 27, 2027.
