The Cardinal Newman Society has issued its 2014 , recognizing 71 Schools of Excellence œmarked by the integration of Catholic identity throughout all aspects of their programs and excellence in academics.� To make the list, the Society , schools must have œan institutional commitment to providing a truly integrated and faithful Catholic education across all disciplines and in all areas of student activities.�

Notably, four of the just 71 schools honored on this year™s list ” less than 5 percent of the Catholic high schools in the United States ” are headed by 91¿ì»îÁÖ Aquinas College alumni:

  • Marguerite (Ford ™79) Grimm is the headmaster of in Pasadena, California.
