Baccalaureate Mass

Members of the Class of 2026 were celebrated at a Baccalaureate Mass on June 5, 2026, at Church of the Presentation in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. 

At this inspirational Mass, IHA Family Awards were presented to three families this year who have their last daughter of three or more graduating. Congratulations to: 

• Lisa and Anthony Costello, parents of Arianna ’20, Giuliana ’22, and Alisiana ’26 (Sacred Heart University)

• Patricia and Christopher DePhillips, parents of Caroline ’18, Elizabeth ’21, and Zoe ’26 (Providence College)

• Kelly and Christopher Mahoney, parents of Katherine ’22, Aileen ’25, Megan ’25, and Mary ’26 (Providence College)

At the conclusion of the mass, there was a touching presentation for IHA senior Kathleen Brancato, who was formally presented with her Certificate of Appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point.

In addition, honors students were recognized at the ceremony for Distinguished Honors students who maintained an average of 95 or better each marking period and Honors students who maintained an average of 90 each marking period.

Thank you to Father Anthony Randazzo and all the IHA staff who planned and participated in the beautiful Mass to honor our seniors in such a special way.
