It was a night that won’t soon be forgotten.
July 19, 2025 at OLS School brought together alumni from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, the early aughts and beyond. Some flew in from as far as California and North Carolina, a few teachers returned, and many parents of alumni were in attendance.
Everyone caught up to take a trip down memory lane, share insights about our shared youth at OLS, which provides perspective for our lives today. We learned new things about people, remembered fondly those who had passed, and made a pact to reconnect with those who couldn’t make it, to get them to join us next time.
A special part of the evening was the tribute to Sr. Cecile for her 50+ years of service to OLS. No, she’s not retiring — yet! — but the Lancers Foundation felt it was fitting to celebrate her for all she has given to the school and its students for so many decades. In addition to a full-crowd serenade led by Regina Pellegrini and Katie Heyde to the tune of Oliver’s “I’d Do Anything,” the Foundation presented Sister with a specially-commissioned illustration by artist and former parishioner Cathy Breese.
To those who couldn’t make it, you were missed. Mark your calendar for the next reunion, in Summer 2030. Until then, be sure to follow us on Facebook so you’ll be sure to be notified of the date well in advance.
And until then: Go Lancers!
