During our 156th Commencement Exercises, an early portion of the ceremony was dedicated to special graduation honors, including:

The Jesuit Schools Network Award, which was presented to Evan Mitskovski ’26 (left) and Baron Nieves ’26.

The Jesuit Schools Network Award was established in 1985 by the Jesuit Secondary Education Association, a national organization now representing 90 Jesuit schools in the United States and Canada.

We present this award annually to two members of the graduating class. These specially selected seniors best exemplify the Ignatian ideal of well-rounded individuals who are intellectually competent, open to growth, religious, loving and committed to doing justice in generous service to the people of God – true Men for Others.

The winners were greeted on the Sciaccia Auditorium stage by Board of Trustees Chair Peter Augustine '83 and President Fr. David Ciancimino, S.J.

Throughout the coming weeks, we will continue to look back at this most special day for CHS and the Class of 2026.
 
Students and families interested in the excellence only found in a Jesuit education at Canisius – ranked as the Buffalo area’s “Best Catholic School” by Buffalo Business First – can learn more by arranging an on-campus experience via canisiushigh.org/visit

This place is special. Let us show you why.
