The Viatorians were among the founding religious communities to financially back the high school when it opened in 2004, and they continue to support it. Over the years, Viatorians have served in administration, on its board, on the faculty and staff, in Campus Ministry and as mentors and benefactors.”When this school started 10 years ago, the Clerics said, ‘Count us in,’ ” Kendall added. “And that has been their word and deed ever since.
