Once again this year, another of our graduates from Our Lady of Guadalupe is a Valedictorian. Theresa Puente is one of the Valedictorians of Bishop Montgomery High School. Congratulations Theresa for all your hard work. Continue to use the many gifts that God has given you. Last year another of our students from Our Lady of Guadalupe, Jennifer Paz, was named Validictorian You might recall, in 2006, Theresa’s sister, Angela, also a OLG Alumni, was Valdictorian and in 2005 we had two other graduates who were Valedictorians of their classes. Kristen Bretney was a Valedictorian at Bishop Montgomery High School and Allison Hales was Valedictorian at Notre Dame Academy. Also this year we were proud to hear that Michael Zuanich, a 1999 graduate of OLG was drafted by the Colorado Rockies baseball team. We are proud of our graduates and proud of our grade school.
