Cynthia and Manuel '65 Chavez Alumni Plaza Dedication & Ribbon-Cutting

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the special dedication and ribbon-cutting ceremony of the Cynthia and Manuel '65 Chavez Alumni Plaza on Friday, March 28. It was a beautiful morning filled with community, reflection, and celebration as we honored the legacy and generosity of the Chavez family.

Guests enjoyed coffee and fellowship while exploring the new plaza and locating their commemorative bricks. The program featured heartfelt remarks from school leadership, alumni, and Archbishop John C. Wester, followed by a reception in the Sandia Room.
