The Archdiocese of Philadelphia will honor 138 distinguished scholars from 33 Archdiocesan and private Catholic secondary schools throughout the five-county region at the 41st Annual Academic Honors Convocation. To allow for social distancing guidelines this year and to provide an opportunity for each student to attend with two guests, there will be two ceremonies at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul.
Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez will be the main celebrant during the Liturgy of the Word preceding each Academic Honors Convocation ceremony.
Members of the 2021 All Catholic Chorus will provide the liturgical music, under the direction of Conductor, Mr. Thomas Kuchler, Director of Performing Arts, Conwell-Egan Catholic High School in Fairless Hills (Bucks County) and accompanied by Organist, Mr. Mark Loria, Principal Organist, Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul.
