Alumnae share stories of hope in new film We Go Higher

Katie Danahy '17 and Emily Micciulli '17 share their stories of the events of September 11, 2001 in an empowering film coming out in the Spring of 2018. We Go Higher highlights the stories of the children who lost family members in the attacks. Delaney Colaio, a former student at Sacred Heart Greenwich and the co-producer and writer of the film, helped Katie, Emily, and others portray the attacks as more than just a date in time.
