Meet Our Officers

The Cathedral High School Alumni Association is dedicated to continuing the tradition of LaSallian brotherhood and leadership by bringing alumni together, recognizing the achievements of our alumni community, and raising scholarship funds for students at Cathedral High School.

The Alumni Association – LQVQ (abbreviated for “Los Que Van Quedando) was founded in honor of Mr. Danny Gutierrez (Class of ‘58).  Gutierrez, whose spirit and passion for Cathedral High School was unrivaled, was the driving force of the early “Tamalada” dinner fundraiser.  On his deathbed, surrounded by fellow classmates, friends and family, Gutierrez turned to those around him and requested the care of all present: “Cuida a Los Que Van Quedando.” Fellow members of the class of 1958 decided to start meeting on the first Saturday of every month to continue the tradition of brotherhood at La Cate, and the Cathedral High School Alumni Association – Los Que Van Quedando (LQVQ) was born.

Since its inception, the Alumni Association has awarded over $531,500 in academic scholarships to and awards to students at Cathedral High School and continues to be a driving force in bringing alumni together to celebrate the unique tradition of LaSallian brotherhood at La Cate.

The pioneer endeavors of the Brothers of the Christian Schools in the South and Southwest United States are among the most storied and respected in the Christian Brothers’ 325-year history. Their labors and sacrifices contributed in no small part to the great cause of Catholic education in these regions, bringing it to its current extraordinary standing. For many Mexican immigrants in the El Paso borderland during the early 20th century, Cathedral High School was a vital first step to transitioning into American society. The Catholic Church, through the community of Saint Patrick parish, established in 1917, fought and struggled through overwhelming odds to aid and minister to the faithful who crossed the border daily.  The establishment of Cathedral High School by the Brothers of the Christian Schools in 1925 has allowed many generations of young men from both sides of the border -- many of whom were the first in their families to attend school – to benefit from a Lasallian education that prepared them for college and professional success, thus lifting countless families into the middle class.

We have members around the globe, leading, serving, and living in Christ through the values taught at Cathedral High School.
