This evening St. Paul Catholic High School is proud to acknowledge and thank the McPhee Family for their generous and steadfast support over the years.  Their involvement began nearly fifty years ago and has lasted for generations.

Recently, the extent of the McPhee Family’s commitment to St. Paul is both diverse and impressive … from volunteering to serve on our school board and 50th Anniversary capital campaign committee … to helping renovate the fine arts wing and purchasing percussion instruments for the music program … to assisting in funding the installation of our high density Wi-Fi network throughout our building … to overseeing our security initiative last summer installing exterior cameras, monitors and a visitor management system … to bringing electricity to our scoreboards and press box and more recently installing a transformer and electric power to our concession trailer and six field light towers providing the exciting opportunity for St. Paul student athletes to compete at night on our home campus.

DSC_0231On behalf of the St. Paul administration, faculty, staff, students, parents, and alumni, we gratefully thank the McPhee Family for playing a leadership role in transforming our campus, significantly and in a unique way, contributing to our vision: to be a truly great Catholic High School.

In recognition for their long-standing and valued time, talent and treasure, we are proud tonight to dedicate this stadium field in their family name for it will now be known to all as McPhee Field.  Please join us in congratulating and sincerely thanking the McPhee Family and their employees.
