Kate McGarey-Vasey Named 2027 St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Award Recipient

Our beloved teacher, Mrs. Kate McGarey-Vasey has been selected as the recipient of the 2027 St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Award. This award honors individuals whose lives reflect the faith, service, perseverance, and commitment to Catholic education. Through more than four decades of faithful service at Salpointe Catholic High School, Ms. McGarey-Vasey has made an extraordinary impact as a theology teacher, mentor, leader, and witness to the Gospel. Her dedication to forming young people in faith, advancing Catholic education, and living the Carmelite mission has inspired generations of students, families, and colleagues. We are so excited to see her honored at the Celebration of Catholic Education Dinner in February 2027 hosted by the Diocese of Tucson.
