Senior Alex Bohensky has been a member of the 4-Footed Leaders Puppy Raising Program since 2016, and has raised four German Shepherds for The Seeing Eye. In the puppy raising program, a puppy arrives at seven weeks old, and stays with you until about eighteen months old. He is responsible for training and obedience, attending weekly meetings, and going on outings with the dog to be sure it has a lot of exposure to become a guide dog. Tasha, the dog that Alex raised from March 2020 until September 2021, has completed her training, and is now a service dog for a blind man, who is also a veteran. The picture is Tasha in her harness at The Seeing Eye facility in Morristown.

"What makes OP such a great place to go to school is the community. Everyone at OP is encouraging and wants me to succeed in both my academic and athletic activities. The OP family is willing to help each other out and we all share a common goal to be the best versions of ourselves."

"One of my favorite memories at OP was in Mrs. Michalski's tenth grade religion class when we sang "Only Jesus" and the 11th graders joined in with us. It was also a great moment when I found out that I made Varsity Baseball as a freshman."

"The best thing about teaching at Oratory is the students. I love interacting with them, and I love seeing the art they create. I feel lucky to be able to teach a variety of digital and fine art electives that allow each student to express themselves creatively in the medium they enjoy."
