Some sacrifice their favorite treats while others adopt practices intended to deepen their faith. As part of my experience, I intentionally tried to slow down and really notice God’s presence in my daily life. It has been a wonderful experience of awareness, and it is in that light that I share some of the exciting developments from within our BSM community. Stories about the various journeys of our Benilde High School, St. Margaret’s Academy, and Benilde-St. Margaret’s alumni regularly find their way back to our current faculty and staff members. Often, those tales are focused on the unique accomplishments of each individual; however, many with long memories reminisce about the days when these alumni were students. In the past six months, two BSM graduates, Mark Vande Hei ’85 and Kelly Pannek ’14, have grabbed headlines for different reasons. Mark, a NASA astronaut, spent six months aboard the International Space Station carrying out scientific and engineering-related missions. During that same time, Kelly was preparing for gold as a member of the US Women’s Hockey team competing at the Olympics in PyeongChang. In these unique contexts, both Red Knights have spoken of the importance of their time at Benilde-St. Margaret’s over the course of their lifetimes.
