Dear Marian Catholic High School Community,

I’m truly honored to return to Marian Catholic as your new President. As a proud member of the Class of 1985, this school has always been close to my heart. Being back feels like coming home.

At Marian Catholic, we are dedicated to the holistic development of every student. We aim to nurture not only academic excellence but also the spiritual, moral, and social growth that prepares students to be compassionate leaders in a changing world. Rooted in the Dominican tradition, our mission is to inspire hearts and minds to seek truth, exhibit personal responsibility, cultivate their individual talents, and demonstrate ethical leadership and Christian service.

As the school year unfolds, I encourage all members of the community—students, parents, faculty, staff, and alumni—to stay actively involved in school life. Whether you're cheering on athletic teams, attending performances, supporting clubs, or joining service efforts, your presence and participation help keep the Marian Catholic spirit strong and vibrant.

Looking ahead, I invite you to be part of our shared vision for excellence. Please do not hesitate to reach out with your ideas, feedback, or questions—your voice is essential to ensuring that Marian Catholic remains a beacon of hope and opportunity for generations to come.

Thank you for your unwavering support and commitment to the Marian Catholic High School mission. May God bless each of you and guide us as we work together to build a future of promise, faith, and achievement.

With warm regards and prayers,

Michael J. Riordan Ed.D. ‘85
President, Marian Catholic High School
