West Palm Beach, FL — In 2025, Rosarian Academy proudly celebrates 100 years of excellence in education, faith, and service, standing as a pillar of academic distinction and character formation in Palm Beach County since 1925. Founded by the Adrian Dominican Sisters, Rosarian has shaped generations of compassionate leaders and lifelong learners, building a legacy that is both deeply rooted and forward-looking.
As Rosarian honors this remarkable milestone, it does so alongside a handful of other American institutions also turning 100, each a leader in its field, yet none quite like Rosarian.
The Grand Ole Opry began in 1925 as a radio broadcast and has since become the heart of country music and American storytelling. Delta Air Lines took flight from humble beginnings as a crop-dusting company and grew into a global airline, transporting millions each year. The Appalachian Trail Conservancy was established to protect what would become one of the most iconic long-distance hiking trails in the world. Peggy Adams Animal Rescue has spent the last century advancing animal welfare and advocating for our four-legged friends in Palm Beach County. The Town of Jupiter, Florida, officially incorporated in 1925, has grown into a thriving coastal community known for its beauty, history, and heart. While each of these institutions has made its mark, Rosarian Academy’s impact on the lives of students and families for a full century is uniquely personal, deeply meaningful, and proudly local.
To mark this historic moment, Rosarian invites the community to a Centennial celebration like no other: our Annual Auction & Ball, themed “Party of the Century”, will be held on Friday, November 7, 2025, at The Breakers Palm Beach. More than a party, it will be a night to honor our past, celebrate our present, and build a future rooted in Dominican values and academic excellence.
