ROCKFORD (WIFR) -- On September 9, 1960, at Boylan’s first Mass, Bishop Loras T. Lane challenged all who would walk Boylan’s halls to “seek excellence in all that you do.” Through the years, his challenge blended with the traditions begun in 1910 with St. Thomas High School. Today, Boylan Catholic’s commitment to excellence is at the core of its mission to educate compassionate and courageous leaders for this community and beyond.
As with all school masses, the Anniversary Mass will be held in Boylan’s Main Gym.
Invitees to the Mass include past and present administration and faculty, Council of Administration, Foundation and Alumni Boards, Veritas recipients, Bishop Lane and Legacy Societies, volunteers, alumni priests, and alumni of our Heritage Schools St. Thomas and Muldoon. Brunch will follow in the Lane Band room.
