Mourning the Loss – Sean O’Regan

“Mourning the Loss:  Our dear friend and Dartmouth champion Sean O’Regan passed away suddenly on March 10, 2022 and has left a giant hole in the Churchill Academy community.

Read Sean’s obituary here:

Since our founding, Sean was always there, no matter what the need, large or small, and he never sought much in the way of recognition. Once we have recovered, the School will find meaningful ways to pay tribute to, and carry forward, his legacy of selfless commitment to serving the needs of students with learning challenges. Farewell Sean, may you rest in peace.”

Sean O’Regan, who died two weeks after his 53rd birthday, was a member of the Atlantic Business Magazine CEO Hall of Fame. He contributed time and resources to several charities, notably Churchill Academy, a school for children with learning disorders. “He liked it for a number of reasons but mostly because if kids don’t have an opportunity to learn, an opportunity to progress and grow, our community is diminished as a result of that,” said his brother Patrick O’Regan.”
