In the coming Chair, Board of Trustees Leading with Prayer In a longstanding tradition, Father Mike Tix, school chaplain, led the faculty and staff in Mass as they launched the 2018-2019 school year (pictured). The theme for the academic year is Mission Driven. With this theme, the faculty intends to renew, replenish, and remain focused on not only the Academy of Holy Angels’ mission, but the the mission of AHA’s founders, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet (CSJ). The CSJ’s mission is “to strive to move always towards profound love of God and love of neighbor without distinction.” The administration has also asked faculty and staff to reflect and carry in their everyday work their reasoning — their “why”— for choosing to work in the field of education, in a high school, in a Catholic high school, and, specifically, at Academy of Holy Angels.

FOREWORD This little book does not lay claim to being a complete his- tory of the Congregation. A much more detailed account will be found in The Congregation of St. Joseph, 1836-1922, the second volume of which is in process of preparation. It gives an account of those institutions only, the property and build- . ings of which have been acquired by the Congregation as its own possession. It does not include, except in brief, the many parish schools in which a great part of the work has been done by the Sisters during the past one hundred years. Some of these, in which they did pioneer service in the early part of the century, have passed out of existence or into other hands, owing to changed environment, and changing conditions in the educa- tional world.

  • 42Nd SEASON Dear Park Square Patron
    Sept 9 – Oct 2 Sept 23 – Oct 16 (page 4) (page 10) 2016-2017 Welcome to the opening of our 42nd SEASON Dear Park Square Patron, This year at Park Square Theatre is about “Getting Together.” Our 2016-2017 Season launches with a pair of comedies – each a little masterpiece in its own off-center realm. Consider this an invitation for us all to convene as community for some shared fun. America’s – and our world’s – current political/social environment, like theatre itself, thrives on conflict. While we might learn from a good fight, far too often we become obsessed or overwhelmed by what divides us. This theatre, and this season in particular, is devoted to discovering and celebrating what unites us – what pulls us together. To uncover what we can hold in common. Sometimes it’s a group laugh at a really dumb joke. Sometimes it’s a moment of unexpected empathy – the breath-stopping recognition that can expand our minds or swell our hearts. Thank you, truly, for coming together here – for this performance, in the same room as the gifted artists who can’t wait to share their delight in our common, if all-too- vulnerable, humanity. Let’s do it again soon! Yours, Richard Cook, Artistic Director C. Michael-jon Pease, Executive Director, CFRE 651.767.8482 | [email protected] 651.767.8497 | [email protected] OUR MISSION is to enrich our community by producing and presenting exceptional live theatre that touches the heart, engages the mind and delights the spirit. Live your dream. Or dreams, as the case may be.
