Immaculate High School

The Immaculate Class of 2024 is going places! We wish them all the very best as they pursue the next step in their academic journey.

Did you remember our nursing students from the 1970 yearbook? Let’s move forward in time a bit. What year did these juniors celebrate Celebrity Day as the members of Kiss? This was the same year that “dot-com” was a new entry in the American Heritage Dictionary.

The Halo Awards honor high school students' achievements in all aspects of theatre. This year, over 95 high schools from across the State of Connecticut participated!

Lizzie Varda graduated from Parsons School of Design this spring with a Fashion Design Degree.

An update from France: One of the cultural aspects that Alina is experiencing is the 2-hour lunch break! Some of the places that she went to during her lunch breaks are The Arc de Triomphe, Les Galeries Lafayette (big department stores), the local bakeries, cafes and supermarkets to grab lunch and beautiful parks. Plus, the Eiffel Tower of course. So, even if the school day is longer, there is more time to relax and rejuvenate between morning and afternoon classes!

Last Friday our Class of 2024 gathered for their Baccalaureate Mass and awards ceremony at Saint Rose of Lima Church in Newtown to celebrate their upcoming commencement.

Did you remember the varsity hockey players from the 1987 yearbook? We need you to reach a little further back on this week’s memory…does anyone remember these ‘future nurses’? What yearbook featured this photo? Bonus points if you remember our teacher’s name!

This past week we wished safe travels to two Immaculate sophomore exchange students headed for France! Bianca Costa flew to Charles de Gaulle, with her final destination being in Lille, about an hour North of Paris. Daviana Reyes Espinal will be staying in Le Mans, a stunning medieval city less than an hour from Paris on the train. Stay tuned for updates on their exciting journeys!
Bon voyage, Bianca y Daviana et bonne chance!

Immaculate enjoys a vibrant partnership with our alumni. Graduates stay involved by volunteering, mentoring students and attending school events like our recent Glory Days celebration! That’s when we welcomed back alumni athletes to share a few laughs and great memories.

Good luck Lady Mustangs!

Diocese of Bridgeport Superintendent of Schools Dr. Steven Cheeseman told students at this weekend’s graduation that they must focus on two words - “carry Christ” - in order to put their faith and all they’ve learned at Immaculate to good use. “We ask you a simple question: what good are you going to do with it?” he challenged graduates. “How will you change the world? How will you make the world a better place?” Read the full article in the Patch here: https://bit.ly/3X83UuL

Sophomore French student Alina Budzynski left this month for France on a three-week exchange program and we can’t wait to hear all about it. Alina can hop on the train from her host family's home and be in Paris in 30 minutes! So far, she's been to Versailles, Le Palais Royal and a local church. She went to a horse race show and she biked to a castle near her host family. She's enjoying the food and Nina's English teacher (in France) is enjoying Alina's presence in class! This is a great opportunity to put her language skills to the test in real world situations. Wishing her the best trip!

Our French 1 and 2 students have been corresponding with students from another catholic school in France! We have a total of 19 French pen pals! This is a GREAT way to practice the languages for both schools!
