One hundred eighty-four years ago in Cork, Ireland, Honora Nagle founded the Congregation of the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This religious Congregation was founded primarily for the education of youth. In September, 1874, at the invitation of Reverend Arthur Donnelly, Pastor of Saint Michael Church, Man- hattan, the Sisters of the Presentation became the teaching staff of Saint Michael Grammar School. Fifty years later, another page was added to an al- ready glorious record by the opening of a Secondary School of Business. The objec- tive of the Parish, a four year academic high school was achieved in the year 1933, with the approval of the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. ; ■■■ ' ; ' - . ■•-.
