Welcome! Thank you for joining the SMM Alumni. As you have likely heard, our beloved St. Mary Magdalen Catholic School is closing on May 31st of this year 2022. Reasons for the school closure will be explained at the bottom of this page in the very near future
for those interested in an explanation. Our primary desire at this moment
is that any alum that would like to connect with other alumni or are just
curious about future activities would have the chance to do so. A handful
of alumni have gotten together and have decided to plan a "Sip and See" on
Saturday the 21st of May in the school cafeteria. We are still in
discussion at this moment as to exactly how this will look and hope to
finalize plans at our next alumni meeting in the church on 24 March 22. For
now, the plan is to have light food and drinks (wine, beer, soft drinks,
water) in the cafeteria following the 4pm Vigil Mass for all interested alumni. To cover
expenses for this gathering, we will ask each alum who plans to come to
donate $10 by signing up online on the web page (not ready at this moment
but hopefully by the 24th of March) or by donating $15 at the door.
Conversation to follow in the cafeteria along with an opportunity to walk
through the primary two school buildings in groups to discuss and
reminisce.
This web page and future alumni gatherings will be dependent upon
responses that we get and volunteers to maintain the site. At the gathering
on the 21st of May, we will see if anyone wants to expand the SMM Alumni web
page to include either graduation years and what they are doing or planning,
or groupings of graduation years including contacts for the various grades.
If I can be of any assistance, please feel free to contact me at my email at
cdelerno@arch-no.org or by my office phone at (504) 733-0922. Thank you and
God bless us all!
