On Tuesday, May 23, 2023, West Catholic High School celebrated the Class of 2023 with a commencement ceremony at West. After leading Mass earlier in the day at Holy Spirit, Grand Rapids Catholic Diocese Bishop David Walkowiak was on hand to confer diplomas.

In his speech, co-chaplin Fr. Andrew Ayers talked about how he loves West Catholic's mission to form disciples of Christ. "It's one of the best things about West Catholic High School."

Fr. Andrew has been co-chaplin at West Catholic since 2019. Although his time at West Catholic will be ending this June, Fr. Andrew will continue to serve as pastor at St. Catherine Parish in Ravenna, St. Francis Xavier Parish in Conklin and St. Joseph Parish in Wright.

West Catholic Live is a show that airs every Wednesday on West Catholic's Facebook page and YouTube Channel during the school year.
