CHARLOTTE — Charlotte Catholic High School held its annual May Crowning May 1 in the school chapel. In the Church’s tradition, the Blessed Virgin Mary is honored as “the Queen of May,” and a statue of Mary is ceremonially crowned each year to signify her as Queen of Heaven and the Mother of God. Ten freshmen were selected by their theology teachers to be a part of the 2018 Mary’s Court: Reagan Faries, JP Gauthier, Elizabeth Kelly, Ryan Ma, Luke Morgan, Carissa Pallander, Anthony Pham, Julianne Ruiz, Andrew Templeton and Franny Tocco.
