Montini Catholic is proud to gather a unique group of students for what has become an annual photo celebration. The group represent what Montini Catholic endearingly defines as their "Legacy Students" - students of alumni parents who once walked the halls of the Catholic school. This year fifty-two (52) students of alumni are carrying on their parents' legacies. The number represents close to 10% of Montini's total student body. 

"We are always honored when our alumni return as Montini parents to continue our Bronco legacy," said Alumni Relations Officer William Dawes '13. "When you are at Montini Catholic, you are family, which is one of the main reasons parents choose Montini. An education at Montini is a unique experience and we love to see our legacy grow with each passing year."
