Comments are off

Henry J. Aschenbrenner, a long-time Director of Education and Deputy Executive Director, passed away on Thursday, November 15.

During his 28-year career at PCC, Henry achieved numerous victories for Pennsylvania’s nonpublic school students including bus transportation, textbooks, instructional materials and services. He was a tireless advocate for school vouchers and paved the way for the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) program.

Henry was a founding member of the REACH Alliance and received the organization’s initial Founders’ Award in January 2010. He served as chairman of the State Education Advisory Counsel. He was awarded the Distinguished Graduate Award at Central Catholic High School and was inducted into the Philadelphia Hall of Fame for Distinguished Graduates.

Eternal rest, grant to him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
