One of my favorite titles is “Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?”, the award-winning short story by Joyce Carol Oates. Although the plot has no President Address connection or correlation to La Salle College High School, the title certainly Brother Richard Kestler, FSC ‘60 Explorer La Salle College High School applies to changes and developments at the school over the last few years.

Mike Maicher Brother James Rieck, FSC ’57 In 2007, the school acquired the 34-acres adjacent to Route 309 and Paper Mill Road. Shortly thereafter, the land was developed into Ward Field, a baseball Artwork and Design complex that rivals some minor league ballparks, along with McCarthy Trail, the John Burns Graphic Design Brother Gratian of Jesus Environmental Center, and two additional practice fields for football, soccer, and/or lacrosse.

In the spring of 2007, construction began on a 40,000 square foot, four-level academic wing that houses a counseling center, campus ministry area, study commons, two laboratories, six classrooms, and a technology center. At the center of the new addition is the Marian Chapel, which for the first time, provides a dedicated place of worship within the school. Upon completion of the new wing, renovations began to McLean Hall. All of the original academic areas were sequentially renovated as were the administrative areas. New walls, ceil- ings, floors/carpeting, windows, HVAC, etc. brought new life to an aging building. The final pieces of equipment moved out in late August and 1,069 boys moved in on September 9, 2009. The facilities that these boys occupy are nothing short of magnificent. Visitors stand in awe of new buildings and the technology operating within. Nothing is outdated and everything shines, including the faces of the faculty and students.

I walk the hallways and grounds and marvel at our accomplishments. La Salle College High School has a long and storied history – one that makes us proud of what we have and where we have been. Where are we going? Let’s just say that the vision is clear and the future is bright. More importantly, it is a future in which everyone will want to have a part.

Fulfilling

by ChristopherT M.h Carabelloe ’82 page P3 romise At the inaugural Founder’s Gala held in April of 2006, La Salle College High School launched one of the most ambitious initiatives the school has ever undertaken. The $25 million capital campaign, Fulfilling the Promise, is the largest fundraising effort in the history of the school. The campaign is aptly named after our founder, Saint John Baptist de La Salle, and his promise to educate young men of various backgrounds. The success of the campaign would rely on support from the entire La Salle community and the results of these efforts would benefit the school’s greatest asset – our students as a commitment to provide the best possible education and facilities for these young men continues to be at the forefront of the school’s mission and vision.

Mission Statement Dear Alums and Friends, adopted by the Middle States Evaluation Team March 2006 As we begin our 151st year, we bring to an end two years of construction and renovations. I can assure you that La Salle College High School, everyone was happy to see the last pieces of equipment depart and the doors opened to our “new digs”. Our a Catholic independent, college campus has been completely renewed and is ready to serve future generations of Explorers. preparatory school for young men of varied backgrounds, is conducted in the tradition of We would not have been able to break ground and embark on construction, were it not for the early financial St. John Baptist de La Salle. commitment of a select group of 200 faithful and loyal supporters of La Salle College High School. Hence the Through a broad and balanced, pages of this publication contain not only information on our 2008-2009 Annual Fund, but also a snapshot of human and Christian education, La Salle College High School the extraordinary initial success of our capital campaign – Fulfilling the Promise. We still have a goal to reach, so guides each student in the I hope and pray that more of our faithful friends will show their support to the school and the campaign in the development of his unique coming year to help guarantee the future success of La Salle College High School. God-given talents and fosters a commitment to academic excellence, service, and At the same time, your generosity has allowed the school to increase financial aid to families in need. The extra leadership. aid has been most helpful to families who desire a Lasallian education for their sons, but may not be able to af- ford one. Saint John Baptist de La Salle wanted education made available to all students and your support allows us to continue the mission of our Founder.

I am often surprised to hear from alums who say that they haven’t been back to the campus since graduation. I always encourage them to visit our campus to see how much we have changed over the years. Without fail, everyone who takes me up on this invitation leaves with a greater pride in their La Salle. When in the area, be sure to make a visit part of your plans.

La Salle has positioned itself among the very best in the Delaware Valley. Recognition of our academic success at a national level was evident in our selection by the Siemens Foundation and the College Board to receive the Siemens Award for student participation and performance in Advanced Placement math, science, and technol- ogy courses. La Salle was the only school in Pennsylvania to receive this honor. In addition, 83 students were recognized as AP Scholars (scoring a 3 or higher on three or more AP tests) and ten students were recognized as National Merit Finalists. The past academic year also saw La Salle as a leader in every sport by winning eight championships along with State Championships in Hockey and Lacrosse. Over 150 students received All-Catholic recognition and La Salle clearly established itself in its first year as a member of the PIAA.

In May, 252 graduates left our campus having earned over $26 million in college scholarships. These young men will be attending colleges and universities in 22 states and the United Kingdom. We wish them every success as they begin these next four years.

All of this would not have been possible without your support. I thank you for everything that you do in support of La Salle College High School. Please join me in celebrating these good things and thank the Lord for His bless- ings upon La Salle.

Sincerely yours,

Brother Richard Kestler, FSC ’60 President

Annual Report Of Giving 2008/2009 16 Explorer Fall 2009

By virtue of the generosity of the greater La Salle community, 2008/2009 Annual Giving initiatives raised over $910,000 in support of the institution. The 2008/2009 De La Salle Alumni Annual Fund, coupled with this year’s La Salle Responds Initiative, raised the majority of the funds in support of La Salle College High School.

In light of the economic landscape, we asked all of our alumni to make La Salle a priority this year, and make a gift to the La Salle Responds Initiative to help “Keep ‘em Blue & Gold”. This initiative proved to be exceptionally successful, and it has allowed us to address and re-address many financial aid situations.

The Parent Annual Fund also once again drew strong support, raising over $130,000 in support of Profes- sional Development. Also, there was once again great support from our internal La Salle community to the Faculty/Staff Annual Fund, which supports the Student Emergency Fund.

In an effort to keep the cost of a La Salle education affordable to all qualified students, the school charges a tuition that only covers 83% of the actual expense to educate a student at La Salle College High School. The remaining 17% comes from various fundraising initiatives – primarily the De La Salle Annual Fund. Each and every contribution has a real and immediate effect on our young men and their respective lives. We are grateful for your continued support.

La Salle’s Sources of Support Operating Budget Alumni 59% Contributions to the Faculty/Staff Annual Fund 4% 17% Other (Friends, Trustees, ETC.) Income from Tuition 4% 83% Parents/Grandparents 13%

EITC/BLOCS 20%

The names appearing in this Annual Report of Giving represent those individuals, families, and companies who supported La Salle College High School between July 1, 2008 and June 30, 2009. Contributions made to La Salle College High School after June 30, 2009 may not be reflected in this publication. 17 Explorer Fall 2009

Letter From The Chairman of the Board of Trustees

Dear Friend of La Salle,

“A successful team beats with one heart.” This unattributed quote succinctly describes our La Salle family as we pass from year to year. This past year has been remarkable for La Salle for so many reasons.

A student sells one more roll of wrapping paper… Just looking around the campus tells a story of accomplishment. Our students dedicate themselves to realizing their potential in the classroom, in the arts and technology, and in the forums of competition. Our faculty is recognized for the long-term impact they make on their students; our parents continue to amaze with their commitment and effectiveness; our Board and Administration are noted for their innovativeness and excellence; and our alumni continue to distinguish themselves on the world’s stage as well as in our hallowed walls.

A mom attends the Spring Fashion Show and a dad takes his son to Camden Yards… Speaking of hallowed walls, our campus stands as a testament to the vision of Saint John Baptist. These state of the art buildings, fields, and open spaces are living monuments to the commitment to educate the whole student, and to provide an environment in which young men can grow in their faith and discover their potential again and again.

An alum joins a foursome with his friends at the Annual Golf Outing… These accomplishments are earned by our students, teachers, parents, and all the stakeholders that make up La Salle –this is the single heart pulsing throughout the school. But the reality is that none of this happens without the lifeblood provided by the ever-present fundraising effort. While La Salle isn’t defined by its fundraising, it certainly is sustained by it.

A teacher places a bid at the LaSale Silent Auction… Your enthusiastic support of the Annual Giving Campaign, the fundraising efforts of the Mothers ‘ Club, Men of La Salle and the Alumni Association make more than “a” difference, they make “all the” difference. Your sup- port of the Capital Campaign is resulting in cementing the foundation on which La Salle will continue to build the future.

A friend calls to tell about a major gift that he/she wants to make to support La Salle’s future… On behalf of the Board of Trustees, and from the bottom of my heart, I thank you for all that you have done in the past year and for all you will do in the coming months.

Sincerely yours,

Benjamin J. Ventresca, Jr. ’70 Chairman Board of Trustees

We support La Salle College High School to enable deserving and qualified students to experience the same educational opportunities that we had as young men. Those opportunities in the unique La Salle educational environment, at both 20th and Olney and the “new” La Salle campus on Cheltenham Ave., which we experienced 40 to 50 years ago, gave us the tools, both academically and spiritually, to confront the diverse challenges of life. Today’s La Salle clearly demonstrates a continuing and very high standard of excellence across the board, in each of the key educational “need” areas of academics, spirituality, athletics and facilities. We were privileged to attend La Salle, and continue to support their educational legacy and the mission of the Christian Brothers, which is developing and educating the whole person with the hope and the earnest desire that individuals of limited means can continue to experience an exceptional Lasallian education. Historically, for more than 300 years, Lasallian Institutions and the Christian Brothers, throughout the world, have meant devotion to education of the complete person as they carried out the life work of St. John Baptist de La Salle. Today, at La Salle, a diminished group of dedicated Christian Brothers and a highly effective school faculty carry on the tradition of a human and Christian education in a continuing and awesomely superb manner, an education that is a powerful enabler in converting boys to La Salle Gentlemen, and in preparing young men to address their future with confidence. La Salle College High School is the embodiment, along with the highly effective Christian Brother’s leadership and participation, in the ongoing implementation of the Lasallian traditions at the very highest level.

La Salle College High School means a caring institution managed in the Christian Brothers tradition that tries, in many, many ways, to foster the development of better young men who will make a positive contribution to our society. I support La Salle because I think it is a unique and outstanding high school. It has had a positive impact on the lives of thousands of young men including me.

La Salle made a difference in my own life and continues to make a difference in the lives of countless young men. My support of La Salle ensures that the school can continue to do for others what it did for me. The success of its students and alums is tangible evidence of La Salle’s success as well as my support of their efforts.

Michael McCarthy ’65 30 Explorer Fall 2009 east La Salle College High School shared a campus with La Salle College until the fall of 1960 when it moved from 20th Street and Olney Avenue to its present campus in Springfield Township, Montgomery County. The school was built on the on the former Belcroft estate of Clarence E. Brown and with the move, La Salle College High School remained in close proximity of the city, but had greater space in which to grow and develop.

In 1992, the school began construction on a five-story academic wing that added a new library and information center (McShain Library), a computer center, a media broadcast center, a faculty work center and lounge, instructional classrooms, a lecture Upper Bartley Field hall, and an art studio. The new addition was named St. Michael Hall in remembrance of the school’s humble roots at St. Michael Parish in North Philadelphia, where La Salle College High School first opened its doors in 1858.

Mary and I support La Salle for a number of reasons. I am appreciative of the quality and caring education I received and we are both grateful for the lifelong friendships that developed with so many classmates, Christian Brothers, lay faculty and staff. We wish to help other young men enjoy the benefits of a Lasallian education. La Salle College High School has become a home away from home for us. We have spent so many enjoyable days and evenings at the school that it truly feels like home. Each year we are impressed by the quality of young men who form the graduating class. Their accomplishments – in academics, athletics, extracurricular activities, and service – make us proud to be part of this tradition of excellence.

We support La Salle for a couple of reasons. As an alum, I have relationships with fellow alums going back to the early seventies and even further when I think that my brother started there in 1965. These guys are some of my best friends and form a network of people that have the common thread of being heavily influenced by the Christian Brothers which fosters a strong loyalty to each other. There is a solid core value theme that is also part of this experience which is reflected in family values and service to others. The Christian Brothers helped foster this. We also have had the experience of seeing our sons enjoy their time and seeing the same theme repeated. We have one son done and another in his second year. Those three years will pass too quickly, but the bonds will last forever.

My financial support of La Salle College High School is a continuation of my immediate and extended-family’s commitment to the school. A commitment which began with my older brother’s enrollment, followed by my own, and then several nephews. The rigorous curriculum, arts, and athletic pro- grams offered a learning experience we have come to appreciate. These aspects, supported by its Christian foundation, create a unique advancement experience for young men; one in which we want to advance.

What was great about my experience at La Salle in the 1980’s has only been improved with time. The support and friendship amongst administrators, teachers, underclassmen and upperclassmen was one of the things I loved about my time there, and this appears to remain unchanged. The facilities speak for themselves. The depth of the academic, artistic, and athletic offerings provides opportunities to all types of students. La Salle is such a warm and welcoming community, there is no better place that I could imagine sending my sons.

Stack III Before he left for his last deployment to Iraq, he sent a letter of recommendation to La Salle for a prospective Brian G. Willis, PhD student. In that letter he spoke of the many aspects of the school that were so influential in his life. He went on to add that with his responsibilities of leading our nation’s young men around the world he realized the power of his Lasallian education. Finally, he said how great it was to visit La Salle and to see the place and people that so greatly impacted his ability to lead and serve. Travis is recognized throughout the Marine Corps for his outstanding leadership and his selfless service to our country and mankind. La Salle was a big part of nurturing those foundational characteristics that allowed Travis to make a difference for others.

This outpouring of internal support to our young men is truly a blessing.

Heroes are people on whose shoulders we stand and on whose actions we depend to give rise to our ambitions and to raise our expectations. Heroes are beacons who attract the best and serve as role models who encourage us to do more than we thought possible. Heroes are ordinary people who do extraordinary things which change the lives of others; often beyond their own intentions and sometimes beyond their own expectations. Every institution must identify and celebrate its heroes and when they find them they must put them on center stage. La Salle has a true hero in Dave Diehl ‘55. His contributions over the past fifty years have shaped our identity, guided us into the 21st century and confirmed the path for our future. Throughout his entire professional life, Dave has given us his clarity of thought, his common sense, courage, compassion, loyalty, good humor and tough-mindedness as a teacher, counselor, coach, administrator, principal, parent, distinguished alumnus and Christian gentleman. More remarkably, Dave is still teaching, administering, coaching, counseling and serving as a role model for Lasallians with the same integrity and energy as when he came to us in 1960. I support the La Salle Capital Campaign because I believe it is necessary for all alumni to step forward and recognize their La Salle heroes. This support will be more than symbolic; it will be a statement of reality that defines in no uncertain terms the best that we have to offer. It will send a resounding message that we expect excellence from ourselves and from each other. The values that our heroes personify are the qualities that are at the heart of the Christian Brothers mission. They are what we want to attract and develop in young men. They encompass the best of our past and present and raise the limits of our possibilities. My La Salle has heroes. I support the La Salle Capital Campaign in honor of one La Salle hero. Does your La Salle have heroes?

Parent Annual Fund

The 2008-2009 Parent Annual Fund, co-chaired by Cathy Cassidy and Greg McLaren, raised over $130,000 in support of La Salle’s Professional Development Fund. The Professional Development Fund, used by our faculty and staff to pursue post-graduate de- grees and certifications, allows La Salle to attract and maintain the best and brightest from the teaching profession.

We believe in the goals and ideals of a Christian Brothers’ education, which I received at La Salle College High School and both Susan and I received at La Salle College. It was an education that prepared us for life and an experience that allowed us to be successful. We feel that is important for us to give back so others can receive the same opportunity.

We support La Salle because of the long tradition our extended family has in attending La Salle and in memory of Megan’s brother Steven. We also know that tu- ition does not cover all of the costs necessary to run the school and that additional financial support is vital to the running of the school.

As an alum and the father of two sons who have attended La Salle, my experiences with both the school and the teachings of the Christian Brothers has been a guiding influence throughout my life. La Salle and the Christian Brothers welcome impressionable boys entering the school as freshman and through their teachings and spiritual guidance the boys are transformed into respectful young men with well defined spiritual values and morals. The fraternity that La Salle and the Christian Brothers nurture is one that lasts a lifetime.

We sincerely believe that all our gifts to La Salle College High School are not donations like gifts to community organizations, police, firefighters, even our local parish church for example. These gifts are clearly investments, the return on which is the educated and future leaders of the world, the students we graduate every year. That investment is clearly targeted according to the school’s needs; we know how our investments will benefit that objective because we have a clear and realistic vision of those needs. Our gifts, like all gifts, will benefit the present and future students, and continue the tradition of excellence achieved over many decades. It will help provide a broad and balanced Christian education in the tradition of St John Baptist de La Salle, the Christian Brothers brand of education, the brothers who become life-long friends and counselors to their students. There is an increasing attitude toward secularization in our country, and it is more important than ever that we help our young people provide the defense against this attempt, and La Salle is the right place to learn how to do that. Irrespective of the amount of our investment and gift to La Salle, we are confident that we will make a difference in the lives of the students. Al and Barbara Gabriele 50 Explorer Fall 2009

Pote Behind Every Graduate Award for Weaver ’84 Excellence in Secondary School Teaching from the LeBow College of Business on June 13, 2009.

In an effort to acknowledge the influence of excellent teaching, Drexel University established the Harold W. Pote Behind Every Graduate Award to provide an opportunity for at least one such teacher to be recognized during their commencement. The university asked all of their graduating seniors to nominate a teacher that has made a difference in their lives. A committee of Drexel faculty and students then chose among those nominated. The recipi- ent exemplifies outstanding teaching, role modeling, and a commitment to students. Pete was nominated by Kevin Lutsch ’04, a former Lab Manager at La Salle and a business administration major who graduated from LeBow College of Business.

In his nominating letter, Kevin praised Pete for recognizing the importance of experimental learning. “Mr. Sigmund recognized that high school students could hone and develop their technology and people skills by participating in a technology team management program.” Due to this life-transforming experience, Kevin will pursue a career in technology consulting upon his grad- uation from Drexel. Kevin further stated, “Mr. Sigmund embodies the spirit of the Harold W. Pote Award. He guided me to choose Drexel for its cooperative learning experiences, prepared me for the challenges of a collegiate educa- tion, emphasized the importance of business principles, and continues to help students to succeed in college and life.”

Pete received a $2,000 prize and an additional $2,000 was donated Drexel University to La Salle College High School in the name of Pete Sigmund and Kevin Lutsch. The Golden Age of T V: A Really Big Show
