A Community Inspiring Success GIVING BOARD OF TRUSTEES Strategic Initiatives Update In service to our SMCS mission of “Preparing and inspiring students to lead meaningful lives, rooted in the teachings of Christ in our Catholic tradition,” the Board of Trustees continues to make progress on our strategic plan. A headline of our strategic efforts is that we are blessed with a very active Catholic Identity Committee. This committee has been instrumental in ensuring we deliver on our commitment to weave our faith in all we do. The addition of a high school Campus Minister is just one example of this. We are thrilled with the opportunities this minister is helping create for our students to grow in their relationship with Jesus through prayer, service and genuine conversation. Specific results from each Strategic Task Force are highlighted below. Recruitment Goal: Grow SMCS enrollment by sharing our strengths, which include academic excellence, a caring faith-based community, best-in-class facilities and technology and unique opportunities for students. • Achieved over 6% growth in enrollment this school year vs. 2018-19 school year. That’s an increase of 56 students for SMCS! • Updated our SMCS branding including the new tag line of “A Community Inspiring Success.” This tag line was built with input from many students, parents, alumni and friends of SMCS. It highlights our dedication to the individuality of each student’s path to success as they build a strong foundation for life at SMCS. • Created a forum for parish youth ministers and SMCS campus ministers to collaborate on opportunities and best practices to strengthen our school/parish connections and better deliver on all youth spiritual offerings. • Supported opportunities for growth in Fine Arts with the addition of a high school and middle school drama class. Academic Excellence Goal: Inspire, energize and challenge our students through our Catholic schools academic programs built on best-in-class learning models and further opportunities for personalized experiences that stretch each student’s capabilities. • Refined the curriculum continuum to ensure quality and consistency across schools from early childhood-grade 12. This will also improve transparency to parents on the curriculum offered at SMCS. • Created a superintendent/education leader role focused on elevating our academic model. This position was posted in January with the intent of filling the position for the 2020-21 school year. While we are very proud of our schools, we know that the world continues to change and we need to evolve with current best practices to meet the needs of our students. Financial Sustainability Goal: Ensure system financial stability, operating within a balanced budget, while increasing and leveraging third source funds for strategic investments in SMCS. • Established a SMCS Foundation and associated Foundation Board to attract major gifts from donors to ensure financial sustainability. Our new Director of Mission Advancement, Chris Decker, will lead our outreach efforts to build this foundation through the generosity of donors. Community and Continuity Goal: Develop and maintain interactions within our system, including academic, social, faith-based and extracurricular, that are viewed as exceptional and directly interconnected from early childhood-grade 12. • Surveyed parents as a first step in establishing a forum for feedback with families to build on SMCS community based activities. Long-term, this team is focused on improving engagement of parents, students, alumni, parishes and friends in system activities. At the end of this school year, the Board of Trustees will review overall progress against the strategic plan as part of setting new objectives for the 2020-21 school year. We are so proud of our system and will continue to challenge ourselves to make improvements that deliver on our vision of being celebrated as a system where students discover and develop their God-given talents and experience success through learning, faith and service.

A message from the SMCS PRESIDENT

Dear SMCS Friends and Families,

This year was like no other, with its incredible high points, as well as some extreme challenges. We continue to flourish due to the significant engagement and progress that staff, volunteers, parishes and donor financial support assisted with in providing for St. Mary Catholic Schools. Key highlights include: • Enrollment growth to 904, a 6.5% increase over our previous year enrollment of 848 • Tuition grants of $630,167 awarded to deserving families • A net investment of $1,392,985 contributed from our five parishes to support our Catholic school mission • An investment of $50,746 for our early childhood Preschool and 4K classrooms to upgrade space, furnishings, and learning activities materials at all three elementary campuses. • An additional $40,888 donated for new elementary teacher desks • School safety staff training, along with safety and security upgrades of $30,887 • A $175,020 gift of two new full size school buses that will now safely and efficiently transport our students to school and to many educational and co-curricular events • A $9,000 project to rejuvenate eight regulation-size courts at the Riviere Tennis Center • Building of our stunning $2.5 million Zephyrs Fields soccer/football/track facility, with a synthetic turf field and running track, field vente areas, a new LED track timing and scoreboard system, and a high-performance sound system with capability to live stream contests • Annual appeal support of $169,429 gifted from our alumni and friends • Net proceeds of $98,423 attained for student activities through Zephyrs Connect, fine arts/activity/athletic booster clubs and elementary/middle school fundraising • Additional revenue of $78,816 through our Z-NIGHT/Zephyrs Gold, and SCRIP fundraiser profits • Our first virtual Zephyrfest event, which raised an amazing $544,813 net profit • Formalization of our new SMCS Foundation established to attract major gifts to ensure long-term financial sustainability

Along with these noteworthy achievements, we were faced with a pandemic which closed our schools and campuses for the entire fourth quarter. During this time, our administrators and teachers quickly adapted to provide remote on-going learning to all of our students. With many of our revenue streams negatively affected, we were still able to retain and pay all employees with funding awarded through our $970,000 CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program stimulus loan.

As I approach the end of my time at SMCS, I reflect upon the tremendous opportunity I have been blessed with to serve as president of this exceptional school system. I cannot fully express the appreciation and respect I have for all who make our schools thrive – your commitment, your passion, and the unique gifts each of you bring to our schools is truly remarkable! Thank you to each and every one of you for being a vital part of preparing and inspiring students to lead meaningful lives, rooted in the teachings of Christ in our Catholic tradition!

With gratitude and very warm regards,

Helen Englebert, SMCS President

On July 1, 2020, Dr. Timothy Schigur joined the St. Mary Catholic Schools system as superintendent, with the intention of taking over the leadership reins upon Mrs. Englebert’s planned retirement at the end of this calendar year. His 25 years of seasoned experience and leadership roles at both public and parochial Wisconsin schools provide an orderly and visionary transition as St. Mary Catholic Schools adapts to a changing educational land- scape. The SMCS Board of Trustees and administration will continue to focus on the system’s objectives of providing the very best in Catholic education, attracting and retaining students and premiere teachers to a Christ-centered community, delivering academic excellence with college tracking and goal-setting for students, enhancing alumni and donor relations, and growing Zephyrs pride in the system. Look What All of Us ACCOMPLISHED

CO-CURRICULARS Fall 2020 Covid cannot hold us back. That is the spirit of our Zephyrs community. We want the world to know that the hallmarks of Zephyrs pride, hard work, dedication and striving for excellence shine brightly during a pandemic. Our students have been busy since an unexpected pandemic swept across our school, state and world.

ZEPHYRS Fine Arts SMCS Fine Arts excelled during the 2019-20 school year. Theatre students in our SMCS Fine Arts were honored for their work on the production of BIG FISH. The all-female deck crew was awarded the Backstage Spirit Award for their work behind the scenes. The deck crew members were Emma Murray ‘20, Addie Van Nuland ‘20, Grace Meyer (So.), Lizzy Holschuh (Sr.), Miriam Shofner ‘20, Sue Zinzi (‘20) and Ola Jasiniewska (‘20). Their work helped shine a light on the singing and acting of the entire cast. One member of that cast received individual recognition. Eden Marshall (Jr.) was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress for her portrayal of Sandra Bloom. The entire cast and crew of BIG FISH was thrilled to share their talents as the pandemic began to swirl in the spring. OUR SCHOOLS Tennis

Ground breaking took place in late winter and construction wrapped up August 26, 2020. The track hosted its first ever event on August 28 as part of Zephyrs Connect.

The synthetic turf field for boys and girls soccer and football is surrounded by an 8-lane regulation track done in Zephyrs blue. The new complex includes a long jump track, pole vault pit, discuss and shotput area. This space can be used for track and field, soccer, football and other co-curricular sporting events.

Zephyrs Fields is a $2,500,000 complex built by Miron Construction and funded by Bergstrom Automotive and Miron Construction. The architectural and engineering was designed by Point of Beginning, Inc. This exciting addition to our campus enables SMCS to offer the most state-of-the-art athletic complex in the valley to its student body. Matthew Schoultz, Activities Director, shared these sentiments, “Our new facility is world class. We are blessed to have a facility like this. Our entire student body from preschool through high school will benefit from this exciting space. All of our schools will be able to enjoy using this for physical education, field days and other creative academic opportunities. I cannot wait to see how our teachers incorporate this space into their curriculum.”

The facility upgrade changes the face of sports at SMCS. Zephyrs Fields will generate additional income for our school system and community, as we host sporting events and tournaments. It will help drive enrollment and engagement among students and provides a space for our student athletes to train and compete at the highest levels.

Summarizing the benefit of this facility for our entire school system, Superintendent Tim Schigur said, “The students are so blessed by this addition to our campus. Our facilities, alongside the great academics we provide, make SMCS a destination school. We are thrilled to see how this new facility will drive our mission to inspire student success in the classroom, through co-curriculars and in spiritual growth.” OUR SCHOOLS Efforts CAMPUS MINISTRY MINISTRY CAMPUS STACY (SWEETELLA) NOVAK (SWEETELLA) STACY the for Finalist State 2020 Fellowship Teacher Herb Kohl As a part of Teens for Life I participated in many of the events that were were that events of the many in I participated Life for of Teens As a part clinic in Parenthood the Planned to went We ministry. campus done for were campaign, and we Life for 40 Days during the a week once Appleton the life for each prayed we where adoption program a part of a spiritual the was experiences best nine months.

NEW SMCS HIGH SCHOOL CHAPLAIN Father Mark Mleziva SMCS is excited to share that our new high school chaplain has hit the ground running! Fr. Mark Mleziva has made his presence known by being a positive and inspiring presence in our students’ lives. He joined the freshmen at their beginning of the school year picnic, he regularly eats lunch with our students on Wednesdays and he celebrates weekly school masses. Fr. Mark remarked, “I am so excited to join the SMCS family! I can’t wait to meet the students and families at SMCS!” As he meets the students Fr. Mark becomes a valuable piece of their spiritual growth. He is able to discuss vocations that center around service to the Church. Fr. Mark has also proven to be an easy person to talk with and share concerns. Having someone to talk with like Fr. Mark is a great benefit to our student body. Fr. Mark is a native of Wisconsin, having grown up outside of Luxemburg where he attended Catholic elementary school. He spent two years studying at St. Francis de Sales Seminary in Milwaukee, and then four years studying in Rome at the Pontifical North American College. Fr. Mark was ordained a priest in 2017. He currently serves as the Vocation Director for the Green Bay Diocese. ZEPHYRFEST It is with great joy and a bit of nostalgia that we look back to May 2, 2020, and the first ever Virtual Zephyrfest. The COVID-19 pandemic was in its infancy and SMCS rose to the occasion by holding the first virtual fundraising event by a non-profit from Oshkosh to Green Bay. Only the creative and passionate SMCS community could have pulled that off! We want to thank all of our sponsors and donors who partnered with us to ensure the mission of SMCS would carry forward. Together we raised a profit of $544,813!

It is with great anticipation that we announce the date, April 24, for Zephyrfest 2021. As we continue to manage the pandemic, we are directing all of our planning and creativity to an event that will be like none other. The 2021 event will be more creative, more engaging and more inspirational than ever. We cannot wait for you to join us!

BUSINESS Directory

St. Teresa of Calcutta taught us many things. One of those many valuable lessons is to do things for others OUR SCHOOLS simply because we can. “I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things.” At SMCS we are taking that quote to heart! We want to do great things together. One simple, yet impactful, thing we can do is highlight your business and hard work in our community.

We have dedicated a page on our website for an Alumni & Friends of SMCS Business Directory. When you share your business contact information with us we will display it as a way to support the great work you are doing! It is our hope that people will look at the directory first when they need professional services in the Fox Valley. When they do, your business will be front and center. Complete the online form at https://smcatholicschools.org/smcs-business-directory/ to include your business! It is our pleasure to include you and your skills in this directory. SMCS wants to help you succeed and grow as you utilize your God-given talents to serve the people in our communities.

PARTNERS from NEAR and FAR The world faces a need for new innovators, thinkers and problem-solving leaders. The goal of VEX is to create engaging, affordable and powerful solutions that immerse students in STEM through the excitement of building and programming. “It’s Legos on steroids!” This is how junior Kaden Miller describes his work with the SMCS VEX program. “When I was younger my dad wouldn’t let me cut Legos into the correct size. Now I get to cut metal and make it all fit.” Evan Unruh, a sophomore at SMCS, recognizes that creative problem solving is fun and sees its importance in shaping a better future. “You get useful experience in knowing how work flow goes and just be able to do work more efficiently.” Students like Kaden and Evan are offered these opportunities to grow and learn because of generous partners in our mission to inspire success. Those partners come from near and far. Distance never stopped Joan Hartl and her late husband Richard Hartl (‘55) from keeping SMCS close to their hearts. Working in a STEM related field his entire career, Richard wanted to provide a great start to aspiring science-minded students. The incorporation of PLTW into St. Mary Catholic Schools’ core curriculum four years ago, and our various STEM-related co-curricular activities, have been a perfect fit for the Hartls’ desired area of giving. Emilie Boots, middle school science teacher, appreciates the Hartls’ generosity. “The students are blessed with materials and equipment we have never had before.” Boots says, “The students work as a team. Students at every level are able to shine in the presence of their classmates!” Support for SMCS does not just come from far away. Patricia Samolinski of Winneconne, WI has found a unique way to support the mission of SMCS. Working at Winneconne Thrift and Gift, a faith-based resale store, has enabled Patricia to support a variety of Catholic religious curriculum and fine arts opportunities at SMCS. She generously donates her paycheck directly to SMCS. She knows having a variety of opportunities makes a difference to our students, “SMCS is smaller. Where else can a student be in football, chorus, forensics, fine arts and experience such diverse clubs?” Freshman Ray Pingel said this about our generous supporters, “I would say they have changed many kids’ lives.” Patricia and her husband Craig Samolinski (’69) directed a portion of their financial gift to the Fine Arts Italy Trip that will happen in the future. Patricia plans to join the group as a chaperone and looks forward to being an eye-witness to the growth these students will experience in Italy! Pamela Barnhill, SMCS Band Teacher and Italy Trip organizer, commented “We could not do these kinds of trips and give students these unique opportunities without support from people who believe in what we are doing. It makes our work with students so much more rewarding when we know people see the value!” If you want to join the Hartls and Samolinskis in changing the lives of students at SMCS, contact Director of Mission Advancement, Christopher Decker at [email protected] or 920-722-7796 ext. 662.

The Foundation is committed to providing a third-source income to SMCS for generations to come! Current SMCS Foundation Board member, Dan Engelhard, remarks, “I am very excited about our future. SMCS continues to drive improvement in all areas of our mission. I believe the SMCS Foundation will be an excellent resource to SMCS and will provide greater confidence to our donors in the future.”

We are pleased to offer new partners to the Foundation a special incentive. Until June 30, 2022, all gifts made OUR SCHOOLS to the Foundation will not be charged any administrative fees.

Current Foundation Board President, Ryan Valentine, summarizes it best, “The SMCS Foundation will benefit students and families by encouraging new gifts. Like most organizations, we face some financial challenges. We want the best teachers, the best administrators, the best facilities and the best experience for our students and families. We will always need the generous support of our donors. The SMCS Foundation will ensure we properly manage existing gifts and will encourage new donations.” If you would like to consider a gift to the SMCS Foundation please email or call Christopher Decker at [email protected] or 920-722-7796 ext. 662.

Alec Brew ‘12

Alec participated in a group of physical therapy and engineering students for an annual “Go Baby Go” build project. This project takes electric cars that young children commonly have, and then customizes them to fit the needs of children with difficulties in ambulation that limit their abilities to explore the world around them. Alec’s favorite part of this project was working in tandem with the engineering students, and seeing the big smiles from the kids and parents when they brought the toys to their homes. Alec will be graduating in the fall of 2020.

Nathan Berg ‘17

A mechanical engineering student at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, Nathan was selected for an intern position with SpaceXin Hawthorne, CA. Nathan was the manufacturing engineer for the Dragon 2. He describes his great opportunity below.

“I was the manufacturing engineer for 2 different valves designs that are present on the Dragon 2 spacecraft propulsion system. Multiple quantities of each design are present on every vehicle, and all the physical valves I was responsible for will be used on future missions (with and without astronauts on board) to the ISS. One of the valves was an isolation valve, which simply acts like an on-off switch for fluid flow. The other was a burst disk that separates two pressurized systems.

As a manufacturing engineer Nathan was responsible for the day to day production of his valves. This centered mostly around addressing issues that arose during the fabrication and assembly of the valves from damage, incorrect processing, failed testing, failed inspections; and when possible, developing robust processes to prevent the issues from occurring again. In the interest of continuous improvement, he was involved in various “campaigns” to increase productivity and decrease engineering input.”

Additionally, he was responsible for the creation and upkeep of the instructions used by technicians to assemble the valves. Nathan was also able to get some hands-on testing with the burst disk and isolation valve to gather data for analysis and further validate the designed lifecycle of the valves.

Nathan said, “I thoroughly enjoyed working at SpaceX, and my role as a manufacturing engineer because my projects and responsibilities provided me with valuable work experience. They spanned numerous facets of engineering.” ALUMNI Spotlights ALUMNI

OUR CONGRATS TO 2020 Graduates ALUMNI SMCHS EXCELLENCE Awards #4EVERZEPHYRS During the 2020 SMCHS graduation ceremony two awards were given to deserving couples. The SMCHS SPIRIT Volunteer Service Award honors extraordinary commitment and service to SMCHS. The SMCHS Honorary Alumni Designation honors non-graduates of SMCHS who make a significant and selfless impact through the sharing of their time and talents. In both of these awards we see the hallmarks of Christian faith lived out for all to see. Please join us in celebrating the 2020 recipients. SMCHS Honorary Alumni Designation: Dianne & John F. Bergstrom All three of Dianne and John F. Bergstrom’s children attended St. Mary Catholic Schools through grade school, middle and high school and completed their Catholic education at Marquette University. All nine of their grandchildren are students in all three levels of SMCS. Dianne and John F. are incredibly appreciative of the quality work that the teachers, coaches and staff do for the students. They believe that SMCS students are fully prepared for their lives going forward because of the hard work of our committed educators. They embrace the responsibility to give back in meaningful ways so SMCS can have the educators and facilities to deliver a quality faith-based education.

SMCHS SPIRIT Volunteer Service Award: Jeff & Lynn Parks All three of Jeff and Lynn Parks’ children graduated from SMCHS. During the years their children were attending SMC schools Jeff and Lynn were regularly involved. They were self-sacrificing and servant-hearted. The coordination of parent-teacher conference meals was always their priority. To serve the SMCS Boosters, Jeff and Lynn also coordinated the concession stand efforts during volleyball. The Parks spirit for giving back to SMCS was a blessing to students, teachers and staff. Their contribution is a model for others to follow.

SMCHS ALUMNI Mentoring Program We continue to match our current students through our SMCHS Alumni Mentoring Program. This program was established to promote career awareness with our high school students. The main goal is to allow juniors and seniors to make a connection with an SMCHS alum who is currently employed in the career field that the student is interested in exploring.

Through this mentorship process, the student gains an awareness of what it takes to become successful in the identified field. The alum advises and guides the student through career exploration and sharing personal experiences with obstacles and successes they have experienced. Interested in participating? Email Anne at [email protected]

This is what our SMCS Alumni that are graduating from college this spring have to say on how the COVID19 has impacted them.

Lauren Unruh ‘16

Before COVID-19 was declared a pandemic, I was hired as a patient care technician at a hospital in Indianapolis, to get more patient care experience before starting PA school. However, the unit I was hired on is now dissolved to support the growing number of COVID-19 patients. During my most recent shift I was floated to the medical intensive care unit where I provided support to the nurses on the front lines of this pandemic.

Pat Knapinski ‘16

The new pandemic has put my path in a strange situation to say the least. Online classes began right after spring break and it honestly is not a great learning experience when you’ve spent over 3.5 years in a completely different learning setting. It’s tough but we all have to deal with it. It’s not the end to college that me or any of my friends envisioned, especially when the last two months of college are a ton of fun. Career-wise, the COVID-19 virus has put a stoppage to almost all hiring in the sport industry. With the restrictions that are in place, uncertainty has caused organizations to avoid hiring all together. It leaves me and many others with limited options following graduation, adding in an economic downturn has caused jobs to not even be posted. Michael Van De Het ‘16

COVID-19 has definitely made an interesting end to my senior year. When it comes to classes, I would much rather be sitting in the classroom learning rather than watching online videos. I feel going online has made it more difficult than it already was to stay motivated! When it comes to the graduation ceremony, I think doing so virtually is disappointing. I think it is unfortunate that we won’t have the opportunity to walk the stage, at least anytime soon. From a job perspective, I am grateful to have signed on with a company (Georgia Pacific), but this pandemic has made it very hard for my classmates to find job opportunities, due to lack of hiring at this time.

Regan Andersen ‘17

I would say that the situation isn’t ideal for anyone right now. All of my classes have been moved online obviously, but the experience has varied based on the course. My majors and coursework are very interactive so while some have remained productive, others have been disrupted and we have had to adjust a lot. Commencement has been “postponed” for now, but it is likely that it will get cancelled. It feels very surreal to not have all these events and celebrations to look forward to in the last few months of school and to not have the chance to graduate alongside my peers that I have worked alongside to get to this point, and I am sad about it for sure, but I also keep trying to remind myself how blessed I am in this whole situation. I am home right now surrounded by people who love and care about me, eating home-cooked meals every night, and am healthy. There are a lot of people who can’t say the same right now, so if by staying home and missing all of these things can help us all in the long run, I am happy to do my part. I think it is important to take time to reflect on all of these things and take time to be sad and disappointed, but reflecting on the good has also helped to keep in good spirits during these times for sure!

Marissa Quinonez ‘16

I graduated in June with a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work with a minor in Spanish. Due to the current pandemic circumstances, the graduation ceremony at

UW-Oshkosh has been canceled. Participation at my ALUMNI internship has also been impacted by a reduction of hours and the thorough experience I am now missing out on. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to continuing my education at UW-Milwaukee this fall to pursue a Master’s degree in Social Work.
