MESSAGE FROM MONSIGNOR Dear Graduates, As the first graduates to have enjoyed the enlarged facilities of St. Monica's High School, you are grateful to God, as I am, for the privilege which has been yours of a complete Catholic education. The ultimate purpose of that educational program is set forth on the plaque on our new building — to cooperate with Divine Grace in the formation of true and perfect Christians. May that purpose be realized in the life of each of you. The sacrifices of your patents, the labors of your teachers, and your own time and ef- forts, will then not have been in vain. May our Lord bless you abundantly always, through the hands of Mary, our Immaculate Mother, and St. Monica, our glorious Patroness. 8
