Presentation is close-knit, family-like community of teachers, staff, parents, alumnae and supporters who help prepare the students – “Pres Girls” – for thriving in and leading a global society. THE OPPORTUNITY Presentation Academy is seeking an experienced, versatile, and goal-oriented person to fill the newly created role of Director of Marketing and Engagement. Reporting to the president, this person will demonstrate energy, initiative, and a deep commitment to sharing Presentation’s value proposition with Future Pres Girls and their families.

In alignment with Presentation’s diversity and inclusion values, marketing and enrollment strategies must effectively target underserved populations of the community and convey Presentation’s belief in the unique opportunities afforded by a high-quality, Catholic, all-girls education in downtown Louisville. The Director of Marketing and Engagement must have experience developing and executing campaigns as an inspirational team leader and be comfortable with both day-to-day activities that promote enrollment and the development of a long-term enrollment and recruitment strategy.

  • Because of You
    BECAUSE OF YOU, 2015 ANNUAL REPORT OUR MESSAGE TO YOU Welcome to our first-ever Annual Report! While the Foundation was formed in the 1990s, we think it is time to more formally raise the profile of this organization, add a more pronounced“Thank You” for your long-standing generosity, and begin to tell you more about where we’re going. In our years of working with the Catholic Education Foundation, one thing is for sure. Our broader central Kentucky community truly believes in the Catholic education experience and values its impact. And that is why so many of you, both families and businesses, have given so selflessly to the cause of helping families who cannot afford the full cost of Catholic schools for their kids. Yes, our Catholic schools – 37 elementary and nine secondary with combined enrollments of nearly 20,000 students – are leading the way in demonstrated value to our community like no other. Why are Catholic schools so important? The answer is simple – They are the best way to connect Faith, Family and Learning the world over. No other educational experience better links these three precious life-long gifts. None. So if this experience is so valuable on such a broad scale, shouldn’t we all work together to enhance its vitality and extend its reach to more students? THE ANSWER IS YES! This past year in central Kentucky Catholic schools was quite historic on several fronts, but none more important than the Novem - ber 2014 joint announcement of a new Catholic school plan by the Archdiocese of Louisville and the Catholic Education Founda - tion.

Size of Collection: 58.5 cubic feet, 20 ovsz. folders Mss./BB/M978 D. X. Murphy & Bro., Architects (Louisville, Ky.) Records, 1854–1949 Biographical Note D. X. (Dennis Xavier) Murphy (1853–1933) was born in Louisville, Kentucky. Murphy was the son of Irish immigrants and began working as a draftsman for Irish immigrant, architect, Henry Whitestone in 1874. In 1881, upon Whitestone’s retirement, Murphy took control of the firm. Murphy changed the name of the firm to D. X. Murphy & Bro., Architects, in 1890 when his brother J. C. (James Cornelius) Murphy became a partner in the firm. Murphy’s younger brother, Peter J. Murphy worked for the firm as well. Along with Louisville-area residences and business buildings, the Murphy brothers designed many churches and schools in Kentucky. Many of their projects were Catholic churches and academies, reflecting their strong ties to the Roman Catholic Church. They also built several medical facilities including the original Jewish hospital, and the Louisville General Hospital in 1914 on Chestnut St. The later was known as the “Million Dollar Hospital,” because Jim Crow regulations required building separate facilities for use by African Americans. Murphy’s firm was responsible for one of Louisville’s internationally known architectural works, the grandstand and twin spires at Churchill Downs. Murphy’s firm is still extant as Luckett & Farley, Inc. J. C. (James Cornelius) Murphy (1864–1935) was born in Louisville, Kentucky to Irish immigrant parents, Cornelius and Honora McNamara Murphy.
