Who Are We?

The Friary to become “The Saint Katherine Drexel Place”

The building to the south side of Archbishop Ryan known as “The Friary” has been part of the school since its inception. For years it served as the residence for the Francian priests who taught on the Boys side, and then later served the entire school after the Boys and Girls sides merged.

Our Beautiful Statues

For over 56 years, the students of Archbishop Ryan have had the joy of being welcomed and spiritually lifted by the beautiful outside statues of the Blessed Mother (North Side) and Saint Francis (South Side) at the two entrances of our building.
