The endowment fund named in her honor will be used to provide tuition assistance, bringing to fruition Ms. Shaw’s wish to help eliminate financial barriers parents may feel are in the way of sending their children to St. Michael School and furthering St. Michael School’s mission of making a quality Catholic education accessible to as many families as possible.

We're so proud of all our alumni...especially Jacob Hickey. Congratulations Jacob!
INDIANAPOLIS -- With his 18-place showing at the regional meet on Saturday, Jake Hickey of the University of New England has earned a spot in the 2019 NCAA Division III Men's Cross Country Championship, which will be run on November 23 in Louisville, Kentucky. The participating teams and individuals were released Sunday (Nov. 17) by the national committee on NCAA.com.
Hickey secured his bid by being one of the top seven individuals (fourth) at the New England race that ultimately were not already part of a qualifying team. The top two squads from eight geographic regions automatically advanced, and another 16 were selected at-large. Those programs will be joined by 56 solo runners at the finals site.
It is the first time a UNE runner, male or female, has reached the NCAA Championship. In two seasons with the Nor'easters, Hickey has won seven of 13 events, including a pair of Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) titles. His All-New England performance was also a first for the men's program.
The race will begin at 10:45 a.m. at E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park in Lousiville.
