The two Fleur-de-lis on the top left of the Archmere shield, taken from the shield of Saint Norbert Abbey in DePere, Wisconsin, represents France. Saint Norbert is represented by the sheep shears and the angled Saint Andrew cross, taken from Saint Norbert’s family crest. Abbot Bernard H. Pennings, O.Praem.(1861-1955), a native of Holland,was the first abbot of Saint Norbert Abbey (1925-1955) and the founder of Archmere in 1932. Abbot Pennings is represented by a flower in the lower left of the Archmere shield, a flower taken from the Pennings family crest. Mr. and Mrs. John J. Raskob moved to the estate called Archmere in 1910, an estate so named by the previous owner (1873-1910) Mr. George M. Troutman. The name Archmere (through the Arch to the “mer,” French for sea or the Delaware River) is represented by the six arched pine trees. Archmere Academy was dedicated in 1932 to the Blessed Virgin Mary, under the title, The Immaculate Conception. Our Lady is represented by the crescent moon in the upper left side of the Archmere shield, and by the crown on top of the world, on the upper right side. Most Reverend Edmond J. FitzMaurice, bishop of Wilmington (1925-1960), dedicated Archmere Academy on October 12, 1932. Bishop FitzMaurice is represented by the sunburst in the lower right side of the Archmere shield, taken from the FitzMaurice crest. Archmere’s school motto is Pietate et Scientia (Reverence and Wisdom) It was the abbatial motto of Most Reverend Gummarus Crets, O.Praem., Abbot of Averbode Abbey in Belgium (1887-1942) and Abbot General of the Norbertine Order (1922-1937). 7 Mission Statement of Archmere Academy Archmere Academy is a Catholic, Norbertine college preparatory school, valuing community, respect, zeal, reverence, and wisdom. Nurturing body and soul, mind and heart, Archmere focuses on the whole person through academic excellence, faith reflection, social development, and service to others. Inspired by its heritage, Archmere cultivates empathetic leaders – young men and women prepared for every good work. 8 Archmere History 1910-2020 From 1910 until 1931, Archmere was the beautiful country estate of John J. Raskob, his wife, Helena Springer Green, and their 12 children. Chairman of the Board of General Motors and Vice President in charge of finance for the DuPont Company, Raskob was recognized as one of the most successful and influential financiers of his time. Between 1916 and 1918, the Raskobs had constructed on their 48 acre property an elaborate home, The Patio, a fine example of Italianate, Renaissance architecture, and Manor Hall, a servants’ quarters. While the Raskobs lived at Archmere, the house was alive with activity. During the presidential campaign of 1928, Archmere was the scene of many meetings of the Democratic National Committee. Raskob was campaign manager for the party’s presidential nominee, Governor Al Smith of New York. The history of Archmere as a college preparatory school began in the spring of 1932 when Bernard Pennings, Abbot of the DePere Abbey, then the only Norbertine foundation in the United States, made what must at the time have seemed a risky decision to purchase the Raskobs’ Delaware River Estate for $300,000. In the spring of 1932, Rev. Michael McKeough, O.Praem. was assigned as the school’s first Headmaster. Three other Norbertines from Wisconsin, and three laymen joined Fr. McKeough to comprise the pioneer faculty. The school opened in September with an enrollment of 22 students; 16 freshman and 6 sophomores. Archmere was officially dedicated on October 12, 1932, the late Bishop Edmond Fitz Maurice of Wilmington presiding. Archmere’s growth was a gradual but highly gratifying one to Fr. McKeough. By 1933, the enrollment had risen to 50 students and by 1934 to 72. In the summer of 1936, Fr. McKeough was succeeded as Headmaster by Rev. Daniel Hurley, O.Praem., who faced the challenge of guiding the school through the uncertain years of the Depression and World War II. Yet the enrollment continued to grow and minor changes were made to The Patio and The Manor to accommodate boarding students. In February 1939, the school’s first gymnasium was completed, and by September 1940, The Manor had been converted into a science center. The 1930’s for the pioneers at Archmere were a decade of triumph over early adversities. Archmere entered the 1940’s with a sense of confidence well founded on its successful, although infant, years. During the 1945-46 9 academic year, illness forced Fr. Hurley’s return to the Norbertine Abbey in DePere, Wisconsin and until September 1946, Fr. Roger Paider, O.Praem. served as Headmaster. At that time Rev. Justin Diny, O.Praem., who had taught in the school from 1937 to 1944, was recalled from Wisconsin to become the fourth Headmaster in Archmere’s history. In his first year as Headmaster, Fr. Diny made the decision to consolidate the school’s operations, turning it into strictly a four year college preparatory institution.

Class of 2015 November, 2015 Dear Staff, Students, Families & Friends of Saint John the Beloved School, Catholic education is a great benefit for us. Our parish and staff are able to hand down what is most important to us, the evangelization of the Gospel. Our students and graduates are privileged to be handed to them this discipline in the discipleship of Jesus Christ. Our families and friends make sacrifices to enable this to occur and, most often, reap the goodness in the world around them. As a product of Catholic Education, I cherish what I received from those who loved me and most often are reminded, in my daily routine, of the fundamentals that I was taught.
