You are one of a select group of individuals who can proudly call themselves an Alumnus of Holy Spirit Preparatory School. You are the beginning of a long line of graduates who share in common more than just this place; you share the values, the achievements and the people who are Holy Spirit Prep. You built the traditions at the Upper School and in doing so you blazed the way for all who will follow you. You helped set standards which we who remain at HSPS work to match and exceed everyday. Traditions and standards which recently resulted in Holy Spirit Prep being named one of the top 50 Catholic High Schools in the United States. That is an honor we celebrate and it is in part the result of your efforts. Now you can help us create a new path for the future while continuing your connection to Holy Spirit Prep as an alumnus. This alumni section is a place where you can share with the school and your fellow alumni what is going on in your life while allowing you to see the new things we are experiencing at HSPS. This site is only a first step toward the creation of an active Holy Spirit Preparatory School Alumni Association. Please look forward to this spring when we will formally begin the process of founding the Holy Spirit Preparatory School Alumni Association. Through the association you will have an opportunity to continue your connection with Holy Spirit and at the same time help us to spread the Holy Spirit Prep name and our achievements to a wider audience.

ANNUAL ALUMNI CHRISTMAS EVE REUNION BRUNCH Nearly 30 alumni returned to campus on Christmas Eve morning to establish another unique Holy Spirit Prep tradition: the annual Alumni Brunch to be held each December 24th at 10:00 a.m. Everyone enjoyed sharing college life stories and catching up with HSPS news!

' ALUMNI CAMPOUT TO "PROTECT THEIR HOUSE" A unique HSPS alumni tradition is “Protecting our House” whereby a group of robust Alumni camp out in the Upper School Quad on the night before each home Basketball game against Pinecrest Academy. This year’s camp-out called for particular commitment as the temperatures fell below freezing but the Alumni were undaunted and enthusiastic! This year, four alumni confirmed their status as avid Cougar fans by surprising current students and camping out on the quad the night before the Cougar’s home basketball game with Pinecrest. Their loyal spirit was not shaken by the fact that it was January and the temperature dropped to 22 degrees that night. (L-R) Kyle Hatch, Tom Couture, Matt Crane, and Justin Hatch cooked breakfast in the freezing temperatures and stayed for the game that night. Click on the photo to enlarge.
