“We are connected to past graduates who have gone out into the world and done incredible things. Now, it is our turn. … Many of my connections at Holy Spirit High School were made through music. … Each of us put our own notes together to create chords that came together to compose our own, unique Holy Spirit High School experience. … The tribulations that we have experienced during our time … when combined with the triumphs, result in a symphony of contrasting movements. … We are fortunate to be surrounded by amazing teachers. … We are also forever connected to our families … You provided the harmony, or backbone, of each of our Holy Spirit lyrical pieces that allowed our individual melodies to shine.” ~ Alexander DeStefano, valedictorian
“I commend each of you for persevering through these tough times. … ‘Success is not final, failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.’ Winston Churchill, the former prime minister of the United Kingdom, once said this. When I listen to these words, I’m reminded of the many victories and setbacks we’ve had within our community. … Our successes and failures don’t define us going forward, they’re in the rearview mirror. Instead, we have to continue working hard through this next chapter of our lives. Knowing all of you, you have what it takes to continue being successful.” ~ Aidan Driscoll, salutatorian
