This video aired on the original graduation date of Wednesday June 24 @ 7:00 p.m. and it includes the clap out for our graduates.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the final year for STL's graduating students has been tragically cut short. They will not be able to say goodbye to friends, staff, and the school itself in the way they all envisioned at the beginning of the year. Instead, the STL community has had to distance themselves from one another.โฃโฃโฃ

Dear graduates of Class of 2020, we are very proud of all of your achievements during your time here at St. Theresa of Lisieux. Though we could not celebrate together as the extended family we are, we hope that you and your families can celebrate this mass together, safely in your homes. Fr. Michael Corcione has graciously dedicated a mass for you. Enjoy.
As members of the STL Alumni, live by the words of our Patroness and โRemember that nothing is small in the eyes of God. Do all that you do with love.โ
God bless the Class of 2020
