South Side Irish Parade honoring Catholic school teachers

This year, when thousands of people gather on the South Side for the annual Irish St. Patrick’s Day Parade on March 15, they will be greeted by not just one grand marshal but 16. That’s because this year, grand marshals are all of the teachers, principals and staff from the area’s 16 Catholic schools.

Luck of the Irish

Be honest with yourself. How much do you know about St. Patrick? I ask because we in Chicago celebrate Patrick like he is one of our own, with one of the biggest parades of the year, dyeing the Chicago River green and, of course, green beer.
