Dear Friends of Roman Catholic High School,
Welcome to the 20th Annual Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award Dinner.
It is our distinct pleasure to honor Daniel K. Fitzpatrick, President and CEO of
Citizens Bank.
The Greater Philadelphia Area Leadership Award honors business and community
leaders who demonstrate a strong commitment to the Philadelphia community
through their distinguished service and steadfast philanthropy. These leaders
continually make the most of their personal achievements, influence, and success
to transform Philadelphia into a better place for all its citizens.
Thomas E. Cahill, Roman’s founder, would have been worthy of such an honor for
his vision in establishing the first free diocesan high school over a century ago at
Broad and Vine. His benevolence founded Roman which today draws students
from across the Delaware Valley and boasts a challenging academic curriculum, a
competitive sports program and engaging activities.
Daniel, congratulations on your success and with very grateful hearts we thank you
for your leadership, vision and commitment to Philadelphia, the local community,
and the Delaware Valley.
Sincerely,
Daniel M. DiLella ’69

Roman Catholic High School, a secondary educational institution, founded in the Catholic tradition in 1890 by Philadelphia businessman, Thomas E. Cahill, provides young men from diverse social, economic and geographical backgrounds an education of academic and cultural excellence in a scholarly and nurturing environment. The challenging academic curriculum, competitive athletics program and engaging activities complement each other to foster courage, character and leadership.
Excellence, tradition and pride are the hallmarks of Catholic High as we strive to remain the beacon of secondary education within the Archdiocese of Philadelphia
More than 90% of Roman students receive some type of financial assistance
95% of Roman Catholic High School students further their education at a post-secondary institution
Currently, Roman graduates are attending universities in 15 states from New England to Florida, New Jersey to Oregon including the University of Pennsylvania, Stanford University, Drexel, Villanova, Georgetown and West Point
Roman graduates earn an average of more than $18 million in college academic scholarships each year
Roman Students participate in 16 Varsity Sports and over 30 Extracurricular Activities
Priding ourselves as the most diverse catholic school in the Delaware Valley, Roman students travel from 142 different elementary schools through the region.

Fostering Faith…Expanding Knowledge
Roman is a school with a diverse brotherhood – we are brothers for life. Our relationships are strengthened every day by the thirty activities that we are a part of and the sixteen PIAA teams we have the opportunity to join. One of our unique aspects is our Center City location at Broad and Vine. As students we have the ability to explore our surroundings and actually learn about Philadelphia through our experiences. As a school located in the heart of Center City, we also have connections everywhere. Internship
opportunities are frequently offered to Roman students by some of the largest and most successful companies. I can confidently say that Roman Catholic has turned me into the man I am today through its many opportunities and ideal learning environment. Thank you again for your continuing support of Roman Catholic. Through you, this school will always have a bright future in the years to come.
