CAPSTONE TO A MAGNIFICENT ACCOMPLISHMENT
The addition of the new Our Lady of Memorial Chapel is the final “ta-da”
moment of the Crusading for Excellence Campaign. Together we have
successfully raised over $10 million. Upon reaching $10.8 million, we
will ensure the completion of this most sacred space. It will highlight an
exceptional environment to form disciples.
This campaign capstone is what our effort has been about all along… a
celebration of Catholic high school education in Waukesha County. The
chapel itself reflects this in both the spiritual and physical sense.
LIVING OUR MISSION
By putting the chapel front and center on our campus, this project showcases
our commitment to the Gospel, the Eucharist and each other. As part of the
Catholic Memorial High School community, we are called to develop our
Catholic faith and serve our greater communities. Through prayer and action,
Catholic Memorial High School is a place where students receive a values-rich
education as we fulfill our mission to educate, guide, and prepare students to
serve the Church and the world.
IN HONOR OF THOSE WHO MADE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE
Catholic Memorial High School was dedicated in 1949 to remember the 23
young men of St. Joseph’s Parish in Waukesha who gave their lives serving
their country in World War II. Since then, six alumni have been added to this
honor roll.
Construction of the new chapel will include a formal Memorial Wall to honor
the 29 fallen servicemen for whom Catholic Memorial High School is a living
memorial.
HOLDING ONTO OUR LEGACY—LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
The plans for the Our Lady of Memorial Chapel reflect our commitment to
Catholic Identity and the values that are the pillars of The Memorial Way.
Great thought has been given to incorporate elements of our past as well as
the distinctiveness that truly makes CMH unique.
