Senior Lunches: A Welcome to the Alumni Association
April 6, 2018
All seniors are invited to lunch at some point throughout the school year with President Frank Miley (far left), Vice President for Advancement Rob Bollinger (not pictured), and Principal Mona Passman (far right). Each senior homeroom is officially welcomed to the Alumni Association and given the opportunity for a conversation about their CDH experience.
During the lunch, students are invited to discuss their personal experience at Cretin-Derham Hall. Students are given prompts to help guide the discussion and are encouraged to include positive experiences they have had or things they would change to enhance their experience.
Ms. Passman says, "I appreciate the opportunity to spend time with students to thank them and to gather feedback. I enjoy the meetings when we have time to discuss and process student ideas and initiatives."
Senior Lauren Swords comments, "I haven’t heard of any other schools that offer this opportunity and really appreciated our voices being heard. We had a lot to say so it was a great experience."
