The Archdiocese of Philadelphia will honor over 130 distinguished scholars from 30 Archdiocesan and private Catholic secondary schools throughout the five-county region at the 42^nd Annual Academic Honors Convocation.

Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez will be preside at the Liturgy of the Word preceding the Academic Honors Convocation ceremony. 

Thursday, May 19, 2022
6:00 p.m.
Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul
18^th Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway
Philadelphia, PA 19103

The students, all of whom are ranked in the top 3% of their senior class, will be honored for their academic achievement and dedication to their studies.  These students are included in the elite group according to their cumulative ranking at the end of the first semester of their senior year.

The Mass will be streamed live from @ArchbishopPerez and @AOPSschools.

Those individuals with asterisks after their names are in the Connelly Foundation’s Neumann Scholars Program. Initiated in 1995, this scholarship program identifies academically talented eighth grade students through an independently administered competitive examination and provides four year scholarships to attend any Archdiocesan high school.
