Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame Members:
Immortals of Catholic Education

In keeping with our mission and tradition of honoring some of the great religious educators of our own time and of times past, the Catholic Education Foundation instituted its Hall of Fame. Nothing epitomizes the value of a Catholic secondary education more than the relationship between a student and a Christ-like mentor/educator who builds a nurturing relationship with that student. The numbers of these relationships over the years are legion. We must recall this proud history, in order to ensure its continuation into a bright future. Therefore, it is an important objective of the Catholic Education Foundation to seek out and honor those people who have provided inspiration to so many.

WE ARE PROUD TO PRESENT…
