The St. Pius X High School Class of 1960 recently presented a plaque to SPX placed at the base of the statue of St. Joesph at the center of the campus quad. The effort was organized by Joe Abbin ’60.
The plaque reads:
St. Joseph, Husband of Mary, Guardian of Jesus
This statue was a gift of the 1951 class of St. Joseph’s College on the Rio Grande, which occupied this campus from 1950 to 1966. Renamed the University of Albuquerque, that school operated until 1986. In 1988 this campus became the home of St. Pius X High School.
This plaque is presented by the St. Pius X class of 1960, the first graduating class, in the year of St. Joseph, 2021.
