to Queen of Heaven School
Some people brought their children to Jesus, so that He could place His hands on them and pray for them. Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, and don't try to stop them; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."

As our school completes its 50th year of service, we are mindful of the thousands of young people whose lives have been inspired and shaped by their educational experience at Queen of Heaven. Since opening its doors in September, 1957, Queen of Heaven School has provided an outstanding Catholic education to students in West Seneca and the surrounding areas. Its graduates have been nurtured in the faith and challenged to live out lives based on Christian values and service to others. Our alumni have distinguished themselves academically and as members of the larger community.
We salute all those who planted the seeds and laid the foundation for our school to grow and prosper: Msgr. Joseph Vogel, our founding pastor; Msgr. James Campbell, pastor from 1984-1997; Fr. Thomas Quinlivan, our current pastor who has been such a wonderful support to our school; Sister Agnes Marie, our first principal; Sister Marie; Sister St. Edward; Sister Mary Nelson, Sister Patricia Griffin, and Mrs. Judith Talbot, all of whom guided our school through changing times with strength and courage.
We are grateful to our past and present parents, teachers, and benefactors for their dedication and support of our educational mission which allows us to continue to proclaim the Gospel message today.
We pray that Queen of Heaven Parish and school community be blessed as we celebrate this milestone in our history.
Miss Barbara A. Ryan, Principal |
