John Ricci '15

How did St. Helen School prepare you for high school, college, and the workplace?
St. Helen School was an absolute blessing in my life. Not only was I academically ready for the next step in my life, I received a firm foundation in my faith that has truly led me to blessing upon blessing on my pathway toward Christ.

What was one of your favorite memories at St. Helen School?
I have so many great memories with my former teachers and classmates from St. Helen. My favorite memories are just all of the fun times we had together learning, laughing, and growing in our faith.

What impact did Catholic education at St. Helen School have in your life?
I believe that if I didn't have my first nine years of school at St. Helen I wouldn't be on the journey I am on right now. The way that St. Helen molds their children into amazing young men and women of faith is the most important thing that I could have done in my life.

Briefly describe your current profession.
I am a welder/fabricator, that has been guided in the direction of competition and teaching. I have recently taken first place in the AWS World Skills USA Welding competition in 2022. Now I will be giving my fruits and labors back to the welding community to better grow and fulfill the need for skilled individuals that this world of business and industries so desperately needs.
