Celebrating Excellence: Messmer High School 2024 Graduation On June 1st, Messmer High School proudly celebrated the Class of 2024’s graduation, an event 昀椀lled with joy, laughter, and heartfelt memories. This year was especially meaningful for Principal Shenora Jordan, who joined Messmer as these students began their freshman year. Over four years, she has watched them grow, persevere, and succeed. Principal Jordan shared touching and humorous moments during the ceremony, highlighting her bond with the class. One memorable instance was when a graduate turned to her on stage and, with a grin, used her 昀椀rst name, confessing, “I’ve been waiting four years to do that!”—capturing the warmth and closeness at Messmer. Collectively, the Class of 2024 earned over $3-million in scholarships. In her address, Principal Jordan urged the graduates to carry Messmer’s values forward. With pride, she closed as she often did during morning announcements, 昀椀ghting back tears as she said, “I love you, and there is nothing you can do about it. Love wins, Messmer.” “I love this school!” said graduating Senior Tavon. S. “I will always be a Bishop!” The ceremony concluded with cheers and applause. As the Class of 2024 enters the world, they leave with the knowledge and con昀椀dence to make an impact. GO BISHOPS! Graduations were also celebrated at Messmer Saint Mary and Messmer Saint Rose as the 8th-grade classes 昀椀nished their grade school years. Over 47% of these students now attend Messmer High School. These schools, now operated by Seton Catholic Schools, have returned to their names of previous years: St. Rose of Lima and St. Mary Czestochowa. This year, the two schools serve over 700 students. I will always be a Bishop! Senior Tavon. S. 7
