Alumni Association

The purpose of the Alumni Association is to advance Boylan Catholic’s mission by:

• Creating a united, informed, and energized network of alumni who support the spiritual, academic, and extracurricular programs at Boylan Catholic.
• Organizing alumni resources, both human and financial, for the benefit of Boylan students.
• Serving alumni by offering a wide range of activities and programs.
• Encouraging alumni to maintain a lifelong relationship with Boylan Catholic.
• Enhancing the three major areas of Boylan Advancement: Friends, Funds, and Freshmen.

History:

Boylan continues a long tradition of Catholic education begun in 1910 by St. Thomas High School. This school, at first coeducational, became a school for boys in 1929 when Bishop Muldoon High School for girls opened. St. Thomas closed in 1962, while Muldoon graduated its last class in 1970.

The MBT Alumni Association proudly serves graduates of Muldoon, Boylan, and St. Thomas High Schools. Founded in 1985, the Association brings under one name the 18,020 graduates of Rockford’s Catholic secondary schools.
