Reflections by Kelly Katsoris '22
Kelly shares how the 2020 decade started off with boisterous enthusiasm and forward-thinking
growth, most particularly through the launch of the incredible Innovation Campaign. During the pandemic, the commitment of the remarkable Ursuline faculty, administration and staff - the heart and soul of our education and our community - came alive again, just a bit differently.
Kelly and her classmates are off on new paths. These paths back home, to each other and to Ursuline, are etched in their lives in a way that they know will keep them bonded forever.
