Bishop Timon - St. Jude High School Mourns the Passing of Edward C. Cosgrove `52 Ed Cosgrove’s commitment to Timon goes back almost to the beginning and the school’s earliest days in the First Ward in the 1940s. Since being a member of Timon’s third graduating class in 1952, Ed spent more than 70 years living out the Franciscan values he learned here as a Timon Alumni. Best remembered in the larger community for his eight years as the Erie County District Attorney, his seven-decade commitment to Timon in offering leadership and legal counsel with dignity, grace, and good humor has earned him recognition with the Spirit of St. Francis Award and induction in the John Timon Society. Join us in praying for him and his family as Ed Cosgrove died last week at the age of 89. https://obits.mlive.com/us/obituaries/buffalonews/name/edward-cosgrove-obituary?id=55531979

Congratulations to Chris Rusin on his retirement from teaching! Mr. Rusin has been an integral part of our Timon staff since 1993 teaching Mathematics, Pre- Engineering, the Drone Curriculum, and is also credited with starting the Audio Visual - Radio Club. Beyond academics, Chris never failed to light up a room with his witty demeanor or rock the house during a Talent Show. We hope retirement treats him well with and wish him good luck on any endeavors he chooses to take on!

Timon STEM students used their research and investing skills to SIFMA Foundation's national Stock Market Game this year. Congratulations Gavin Krug '27 for winning first place for the Greater NY Region and was one of three regional champions in NYS out of over 5,000 participants!

Today Ms. Russo’s art class and Ms. Cavacos’ art history class visited the Buffalo AKG Art Museum. Our students used their knowledge and expertise from class to dissect different pieces from some of the most influential artists from the past couple centuries!

The broken power line has been repaired, we will be back in session tomorrow Thursday May 30th. We thank National Grid, C&M Electric and our Timon Community for helping to get this fixed as soon as possible.

Bishop Timon will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday May 29. Crews from both National Grid along with our own privately hired electrical contractors worked diligently earlier today in replacing the power source damaged in last week’s storm. Unfortunately, due to a miscommunication among National Grid departments, electric utility has been withheld. This situation is incredibly frustrating and disappointing, and it was clearly communicated to National Grid that remaining open at this point in the school year is of the utmost importance. Because the school is as of now without any power and we cannot guarantee when power will be restored, we had to make the difficult decision to close school again tomorrow. We will keep working with National Grid to get this situation resolved, and will send updates to the school community as they come in. We ask that everyone remains patient and we are hopeful that this will be resolved shortly. Thank you.
