The school community celebrates the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker each year and recognizes employees who are celebrating milestone anniversaries. St. Joseph has two feast days on the liturgical calendar. The first is March 19—Joseph, the husband of Mary. The second is May 1—Joseph, the Worker.

“Our dedicated teachers and staff embody the true spirit of Jesuit education,” said Principal José E. Roca ’84. “They approach their work not just as a career, but as a vocation rooted in purpose and service. Their commitment goes beyond the classroom as they strive each day to guide and nurture the spiritual, moral, and intellectual growth of our young men. Forming compassionate, faith-filled leaders grounded in Catholic values is at the heart of everything they do."

Our heartfelt congratulations to the employees who were honored during the Mass. Their unwavering commitment to Jesuit education, which underpins our school's ethos, is commendable.
