“He always greets everyone with a smile on his face, and his office is open for anyone that needs to talk.”

The six 2024 Mr. Canisius finalists all had their photo taken with a faculty member of their choice during the seniors' fun-filled final day of school.

Here is why Ryan Stravino ’24 chose Director of Campus Ministry Fr. Chuck Frederico, S.J.:

“Since Father Frederico first came to Canisius he exemplified the Jesuit values of service, faith, and love for others,” said Stravino, who is from Grand Island, attended Connors Middle School and is headed to Harvard University. 

“Through service trips, retreats, teaching, and saying mass, he truly teaches us Canisius students to be ‘Men For and With Others.’

“He has helped me find purpose and meaning.” 

Fr. Frederico’s thoughts on Stravino:

“The hallmark of a Jesuit Education is to critically think as a person of faith, and from that faith give oneself in word and in action. Ryan Stravino embodies that depth of generosity daily.

“Ryan welcomed me to Canisius High School at the beginning of his sophomore year. When he shook my hand with his infectious smile, he said that I was going to love the place.

“Having had the privilege of working with Ryan on the Companions Service Experience, as a Rector of a Kairos and sharing daily interactions with him, I have seen, firsthand, a young man who willingly gives without counting the cost.”

All six Mr. Canisius finalists and a selected faculty member will be featured this week.
