The Edith Denihan Memorial Auditorium in Immaculata Hall was filled with energy and anticipation on Wednesday, May 28, for the seventy-second Commencement Exercises at Saint Marys High School, as the Class of 2025, donning caps and gowns, joyfully walked in their processional. The evening ceremony was a wonderful celebration for all in attendance, especially the graduates, who had much to be proud of after their hard work and unwavering perseverance over the past four years.
With beautiful, thought-filled speeches from Miss Samantha Avdoulos, Valedictorian, and Miss Sophie Kwon, Salutatorian, every guest in attendance felt a sense of family, outstanding accomplishment, and joy radiating from the podium. Their speeches were a testament to the invaluable guidance and support provided by our dedicated faculty and staff, as well as their parents, who brought them into this world.
Samantha, who is from Whitestone and will attend Boston College School of Management to study marketing, shared, Someone once told me that people are like flowerswe bloom when were in the right environment. And standing here today, I can say with absolute certainty: I bloomed here. I bloomed not because everything was perfect. But because of sunlight in the form of encouragement, water in the form of challenges, and roots in the form of lifelong connections Ive made here.
Sophie resides in Manhasset and is looking forward to the pre-med track at Georgetown University. She reminded




THE SCHOOLS OF ST. MARY



her classmates that In uncertain times, its easy to feel like everything depends on usour plans, our choices, our control. But one thing weve been reminded of, often quietly, is that God remains steady when everything else shifts. We dont need to have everything figured out. We just need to keep moving, with faith that Hes walking with us, even when the path is unclear.




Principal Gerard J. Buckley congratulated the Class of 2025, which earned nearly $25 million in academic scholarships and encouraged the graduates to remember the valuable lessons learned at St. Marys. Be mindful that the choices you make lie squarely on your shoulders now. Remember to ask yourself if your decisions align with the values weve cultivated over the past four years at St. Marys, and throughout life, be true to yourself. Most importantly, remember, even when we are not looking, God is, so practice your faith.






As a community, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to our newest St. Marys Alumni Family members, the Class of 2025! We also express our deepest gratitude to God and the families of our graduates, whose unwavering support and love have been instrumental in their success. We are also grateful to our dedicated faculty and staff, who nurtured and guided these young minds, and all the community members who support our school and its mission.
