2012 Graduation Address

We are privileged to have such gifted and generous educators on our staff. This year's graduation address was given by one of those educators, a stalwart and longtime servant of Mount Royal Academy, Dr. Mitchell Kalpakgian.

Mr. Thibault asked Dr. K to speak to the graduates because the 12th grade class shared such an affinity and affection towards him as a result of all the wisdom and knowledge that he imparted to them over the year.
