Congratulations to our Forest Ridge School of the Sacred Heart Class of 2026!
At our 119th Commencement Ceremony, we were reminded, so beautifully by our valedictorian, Katelyn T. '26, that the moments that shape us rarely announce themselves. They are found in the ordinary and extraordinary rhythms of our time together: first days that felt endless and last days that arrived too quickly, traditions that grounded us, and the everyday moments of laughter, challenge, and care that quietly became memory.
Katelyn’s words captured what we have witnessed across this class: a community that has grown not only in skill and accomplishment, but in connection, resilience, and genuine regard for one another. From classrooms and stages to retreats, performances, and shared milestones, the Class of 2026 has learned how to show up for one another, and how deeply that matters.
We are grateful to the faculty, families, and all who have supported this journey. And we are proud of the young people who now step forward from this place carrying forward its spirit of curiosity, courage, and community.
Congratulations, Class of 2026. You leave with our admiration and our very best wishes for all that comes next.
