ADVERTORIAL
Bishop Kearney
Alumnae and Friends
As a current junior,Ilook forward to becoming
an alumna of Bishop Kearneyin June 2019.
I know that my classes and experiencesare
preparing me for college and beyond.
The opportunities available to Kearney students
are second to none. This year, my classes in the
new STEM wing, as well as my participation in the
trip to Europe have developed the skills
necessary for me to be successful in an
increasingly global and technology-driven
workforce.
As a scholarship recipient, I am beyond grateful
for the support from Bishop Kearney’s alumnae
and friends. If you haven’t already, please
consider making a gift to support our education.
With much appreciation,
Grace Aulisa, Class of 2019
