At Blessed Sacrament school we are always proud of our alumni. Many success stories are rooted in the hallways and classrooms of the school. You can always find former students visiting the school. If you ask them why they continue to come back most of them would answer, “I like coming home”.
     Among the Alumni of Blessed Sacrament School you can find doctors, nurses, teachers, television producers, clergy, lawyers, and other notable professionals.
     Our most famous alumnus is Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor. She visited the school on June 4, 2010. The school was buzzing with excitement. Justice Sotomayor attended Mass with the students. After the Mass she sat and spoke to the students. It was inspiring.
     She spoke about her fond memories of her time at the school. She didn’t dream of becoming a Supreme Court Justice while she was here, she discovered her love for learning.
     It is our goal to continue developing young people that can positively contribute to the future of our society.
