 As the school year draws to a close, it is time to reflect on the blessings of the year and most particularly on bidding the Class of ’09 farewell and best wishes. At the annual Mother-Daughter Mass I was especially aware of the important journey that our young women take during their years at Mayfield as well as the equally important role that caring relationships with families play in their formation and development.
At this year’s liturgy it was a wonderful sight to behold to see mothers and daughters serve as musicians, cantors, readers, and Eucharist ministers. Together they exemplified the gift of community worship. Similarly, past parents organized the reception and placed their personal touch on the day.
As the seniors take their leave, they will take with them many memories of life at Mayfield. While the high school years are by their nature ones of challenge, growth, and change, I hope that the essence and integrity of what they learned here will remain with them always. May their experiences here serve them well and may they, in turn, use what they have experienced to serve others. Surely one of the people who has exemplified this idea of living Holy Child values in our daily life, is our own Sr. Barbara Mullen. So, it is a great pleasure to share with you the Sr. Barbara Mullen will address the Class of ’09 as their graduation speaker.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to the Class of ’09 for all they have contributed to the school, to their parents, and to the entire Mayfield Senior School community for the many blessings we enjoyed throughout this year.
With summer days just on the horizon, I also wish you a restful and renewing time with family and friends.
Yours in Christ,
Rita Curasi McBride
Head of School
