Still Alive & Kickin'
Although our school has been closed, since 1970, our alumni association is now, and has been alive and functional throughout the years.
The early years...
This image, reflects the early years of Our Lady of Sorrows Church, which we were associated with throughout our history.
OLS Interior
The beautiful, ornate interior of Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica was both moving & inspirational.
OLS National Shrine
The National Shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows, was our "special" place of comfort & reflection.
St. Philip High School
Our school has a long & proud heritage, dating back to 1904, when the Servite Fathers established a school for boys, at the rear of the monastery & adjacent to the church.
St. Philip High School
The school building was finally ready in 1910, and opened its doors for the first time. Our school building (shown here), stayed with us throughout the years, until its closing in 1970.
St. Philip High School
The St. Philip High School building still stands today, at 3141 West Jackson Boulevard, just as it did when we attended. After the closing, in 1970, it was first occupied by OLS Elementary School & then a charter school.
Gaels Athletics
The Gaels, early in their history, were members, of the Cook County League, for only one year, and captured the league's 1911 baseball championship, before the league dissolved.
The CCL baseball title, was vacated, due to the use of 1911 players, (shown here), some of whom were also professionals.
Annual Banquet
Each year, the alumni association conducts an gathering of faculty, staff, former students, sons & friends of St. Philip Basilica High School, to renew & foster the continued camaraderie we've all enjoyed throughout the years.
