CHS Oral History Project

You have probably received a postcard like the one pictured above, from our trusted partner PCI, asking you to participate in the Cathedral High School Oral History Project. You can call the number on the card confident that this effort will result in a wonderful document that will paint a great picture of life as a Cathedral High School student through the years. We are so looking forward to hearing your stories and hope that you will consider participating in this wonderful project.

Tell Us Your Story
Cathedral High School is collaborating with trusted partner PCI to produce an oral history project. The goal of the Cathedral High School Oral History Project is to collect the stories of alumnae like you in your own words and preserve them in a book that celebrates the impact Cathedral High School has had on your lives and who you are today. Every year that we don’t capture and preserve these stories feels like another opportunity lost, so we’re excited to get started today!

PCI Partnership
For this project, Cathedral is partnering with PCI, which gives us access to their trained staff who are looking forward to hearing your stories of your time at CHS. PCI will also assemble and create a book filled with your stories. Please note that we have only shared your contact information with PCI in conjunction with this project. We have NOT sold your contact information, or otherwise used it for outside marketing purposes.

So what Cathedral High School story will you tell?
• Did a special faculty or staff member have a profound impact on your life?
• Can you trace your career path back to a defining moment at Cathedral?
• Have connections you made at Cathedral turned into lifelong friendships?
• Were you at Cathedral during a historical moment?

Have You Moved?
As part of this project, we are also taking this opportunity to help make it easier for you to stay connected to Cathedral. PCI will help us to collect updated contact information from those of you who may have moved and inadvertently lost touch with us.

Do I have to buy something?
No. This project is being done at NO COST to Cathedral High School. The project is completely funded by the alumnae who CHOOSE to purchase the  book that will be produced at the end of the project. You are not required to participate in the project nor order the oral history book. Again, we’d never be able to embark on a project like this without the support of our amazing alumnae and the partnership with PCI. So we sincerely thank every person that participates and chooses to purchase the book.

What’s next?
You will be receiving (or may have already received) email and postcard communications from the PCI team with instructions on how to participate. We’d like to invite you to share one of your stories with us, and take part in this first of its kind project to honor the experiences and voices of our alumnae. 

We look forward to hearing from each and every about how Cathedral High School changed your life.

If you have not received a postcard nor phone call from PCI and would like to participate, please call PCI at 877-810-2611.
