Revive the Ties
TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 2022
We gratefully welcomed alumnae and current students in August for the annual Revive the Ties dinner, celebrating Ursuline education legacies. Alumnae mothers, grandmothers, and greatgrandmothers (and special alumnae friends of current students) are invited annually to help kick off a new school year with their current Valkyries while celebrating their shared ties of being educated at Louisville’s all-girls Ursuline Schools – Sacred Heart Academy, St. Angela Merici High School, and Ursuline Academy (the latter two are now closed).
Thanks to these alumnae for treasuring their experience enough to encourage the young women in their lives also to experience an Ursuline education at Dear Sacred Heart.
Alumnae representing seven decades – 1950s-2010s – joined us in late October during Sacred Heart Schools Week for Class Rep Connect at SHA. Class representatives are vital to keeping the Alumnae Office updated on graduates' whereabouts and keeping their classmates informed on important SHA initiatives. Thanks to this loyal and committed group of women for all you do to keep the Heart beating so strong. Congratulations to Carol Kunk Butler `68 on receiving the 2022 Class Rep Award. Thanks to our outstanding presenters, Tina Miller Kauffmann ’84, VP for Advancement at Sacred Heart Schools (SHS), and Jane Cruthirds, Director of Mission Formation at SHS. And thanks to all who donated items to the annual Sister Brendan Appalachian Toy Drive – you blew us away with your generosity!
