• Congratulations to Father Adam Rosinski, S.J.!

  On Saturday, June 8, 2019, Adam Rosinski, a 1999 graduate of St. Cecilia School was ordained a Jesuit priest at Fordham University Church.  Fr. Adam Rosinski, S.J., was fascinated by the Jesuits and their mission as an undergraduate at the University of Scranton, after graduating, he worked as a high school teacher before entering the novitiate in 2009. He served as a teacher and campus minister at St. Joseph’s Prep. There, he also had the privilege of coordinating the “2Philly4Francis” pilgrimage, which brought together 43 Jesuit high schools to celebrate Pope Francis’ visit to the city in 2015. Father Adam celebrated his first Mass of Thanksgiving on June 9th, here at St. Cecilia. Congratulations Father!

  Thank You  Mrs. Margie McGlynn-Haugh! 

  Since 1971 Mrs. McGlynn-Haugh has inspired the minds and hearts of countless students, parents and colleagues with her passion and enthusiasm for teaching. Mrs. McGlynn-Haugh opened the very first Kindergarten in 1977 and decided that she would never ever be promoted again.  So, she stayed and she stayed.
  
  Now, it is time that we celebrate this very special teacher as she prepares to take a permanent vacation from her life’s work.  Forty-eight years of dedication and commitment to Catholic education is a wonderful blessing to the Saint Cecilia School Community and to the Church.
  
  There are no words in any language that can adequately thank Mrs. McGlynn-Haugh for her example of Christian leadership and her years of service to God’s children.  We wish her well as she moves into retirement and enjoys leisure hours with her family and friends.  She will always have a special place in our hearts.  May God Bless You with a Happy Retirement!
