Winter 2015 3 President’s Message

Dear Friends of St. Francis,

As we begin the celebration of our 75th Anniversary, we can’t help but look back at where we’ve been and how far we’ve come since the first group of twelve young women started St. Francis High School at 12th & K Streets.

We’ve had the pleasure of walking down memory lane with some of our early graduates. The sisterhood and friendships that we see developing on campus each year with our current student body is the same connection we hear about from our alumnae; they share the sense of confidence as graduates stepping out into the world after their experience at St. Francis.

Education provides the opportunity and the leg up toward success in life. For those who receive a Catholic education, they’ve taken with them the values and sense of responsibility that our Catholic faith teaches. We strive to graduate young women who change the world.

In this issue you will get a glimpse of the past and the present. What you see will reassure you that the foundation of a St. Francis education is what continues to be the hallmark of a St. Francis education today. These halls are a place where young women gain self confidence, mature, and discover the young women that God has called them to be. A shining example of this is demonstrated in the eight students who represented St. Francis at the Mass of Canonization in Washington, DC for St. Junipero Serra. They were confident, spoke eloquently in all their media interviews, and were a beautiful demonstration of our community.

We marked the beginning of this milestone of our 75th Anniversary with an “expanded” version of the Feast of St. Francis Day gathering our community of parents, alumnae, parents of alumnae and friends. We invite all of you to campus to celebrate of SF, share your memories, reconnect with your classmates and friends. Your memorabilia has a place at the All Alumnae Reunion Weekend, June 24- 26, 2016. Please let us know if you have held onto a uniform, class jersey, photos, or homecoming bids that you’d like to share.

The St. Francis legacy - Four Years that Last a Lifetime.

In the Spirit of Pax et Bonum,

Margo Reid Brown ’81 President

4 St. Francis’ New Board of Directors Welcomes Visionary Leadership

Establishment of the new Board of Directors brings a Legacy of Service and Commitment to its Membership

Tom McCaffery Tom McCaffery was appointed to the St. Francis Board of Directors in 2013. He is the Vice President, California State Partnerships at Blue Shield of California. Tom is from Modesto and attended Catholic school for twelve years graduating from Notre Dame University. First as part of the volunteer corp and later as a member of the faculty, Tom worked as a high school teacher at Cardinal Hayes High School in the Archdiocese of New York. Tom is actively involved in many philanthropic efforts in Sacramento including his tenure on the Board of Directors for Golden One Credit Union and the Sacramento Children’s Home.

When recently asked about his role on the Board, Tom shared his desire to work with the Administration and faculty to “execute a long term strategy to ensure SF continues for another 75 years. As a product of twelve years of Catholic education, I believe the most important attribute to be the commitment to look beyond yourself and invest time and energy in service to those in need.” When asked what advice he would share with an SF graduate, Tom emphasized his belief in taking advantage of this stage of life saying, “when your responsibilities are relatively light, learn something new, become friends with someone totally unlike you, and take advantage of the opportunity to travel. Don’t put things off and tell yourself you’ll do them later – do them NOW!” Tom and his wife, Sydney Young McCaffery ’81 have a ten-year-old daughter, Logan.

Mary Norris Mary Norris served on the St. Francis Advisory Board for six years and was appointed to the Board of Directors in 2013. She currently is the Chair of the Finance Committee. Mary is a Regional Sales Manager & Vice President, Wells Fargo Bank SBA Lending Division.

Mary believes strongly in advocating for young women in the decision-making processes. Her de- sire is to focusing her efforts on our Catholic identity and mission. Her role on the Board is a response to Mary’s desire to give back and contribute her time, talent, and treasure as her way of answering that calling. Her advice to our SFHS graduates is to believe that there are no limits to your ability to impact the lives of others. She said, “you are special, your gifts are unique and from God to you.” She went on to say, “you can inspire change and you can recreate yourself at any time. Be true to who you are and try not to succumb to peer pressure or influence. Go with your intuition and you’ll always be o.k.” Mary is married to Darrell and their son graduated from Jesuit and their daughter, Rachel, graduated from St. Francis in 2008 and attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. With the AP credits earned at St. Francis, Rachel graduated a semester early and was just promoted to Account Manager for SalesForce.com. She lives in the Marina District in San Francisco. annual report A CELEBRATION A A CELEBRATION of Philanthropy Dear Friends of St. Francis,

The following pages exemplify a “Celebration of Philanthropy” for the 2014-2015 fiscal year, as we honor and thank the many supporters who have demonstrated their commitment to the mission of St. Francis Catholic High School. We are indebted to our alumnae, parents, faculty and staff, Board of Directors, members of the clergy, businesses and friends, for their continued generosity which has made a St. Francis education possible for the young women we serve.

There is much to celebrate in our 2014-2015 fiscal report! Overall our fundraising events, gifts and donations had a very strong total of $1.39 million. The Revelry Gala and Crab Feed had record-breaking attendance and sponsorship. Over 260 donors joined our giving community for the first time! This year we added a class listing of our alumnae community (see page 16) and we are excited to see our graduating classes actively supporting their alma mater.

As we enter our 75th Jubilee year, the future of St. Francis Catholic High School is filled with great optimism and enthusiasm. The Advancement Department has replaced the former Stewardship program with the St. Francis Fund annual giving campaign. Paula Mumm (Katie ’17) joined our staff this past summer as the Advancement Associate- St. Francis Fund and has had an impact in just a few months! Recent appeals to our faculty and staff, parent community and Board of Directors have already generated nearly $130,000 in one-time gifts and pledges. We are inspired by these early commitments in support of our mission-serving young women and their families who seek spiritual growth and academic excellence.

It is thrilling and humbling to look at the many names contained in this Annual Report of Giving. We are grateful to those who continue to invest in the teachings of our Four Pillars: Faith, Excellence, Leadership and Service.

Thank you for partnering with us - for together, we empower our young Troubadours with Pax et Bonum (peace and goodness) so they can become women who change the world.

Many Blessings,

Melissa A. Deiro (Sofia ’15) Acting Director of Advancement

Fall 2015 25 years

As we celebrate our 75th anniversary, we reflect that St. Francis Catholic High School was founded on the belief that our students can be a force for Pax et Bonum or “peace and goodness” throughout the world. At St. Francis, education extends beyond the classroom walls as our students are encouraged to develop their talents and discover their passions in every area of their lives. Whether they are in the science lab, on the playing field, in the studio, or on a service trip, our students encounter countless opportunities for growth in academic and extracurricular programs, campus ministry, Christian service, technology, the arts, and athletics. Because St. Francis students cultivate a genuine love of learning inside and outside of the classroom in conjunction with a deeper sense of purpose, they are prepared to succeed wherever they go. St. Francis students are challenged to reach their full potential by dedicating themselves to the Four Pillars of Faith, Excellence, Leadership, and Service. St. Francis graduates women 75who change the world.

28 SF MEMORIES Rick Norman “My favorite memory is probably a collection of the students’ simple, everyday actions and attitudes that I cherish: small kindnesses, daily laughter, an unexpected donut; new music; creative Halloween costumes, the wild, weird, and wonderful Troubie way. I am honored, grateful, humbled and blessed to be a part of this SF Family. These Troubadours have made me want try to be a better person, a better citizen, and a better Catholic. As Johnny Nash, the great reggae musician sings, I can see clearly now.”

Dana Bueno “Homecoming week has so many opportunities for all students to get involved - artistically, dramatically, mechanically and athletically. ​Sports Rally is one of my favorites! The thrill of the Tug-O-War game - jeans, white tee-shirts with sleeves rolled, face paint, bandannas and gloves! Now those are memories that last a lifetime!”

Deacon Jim McFadden “My fondest memory about working at St. Francis is that the Troubies have always surprised me, touched me, and inspired me. That’s why I look forward coming to school.”

Fall 2015 29 75th kickoff celebration THE Feast of St. Francis On Saturday, October 3, 2015 we kicked off our 75th Anniversary Celebration with a community-wide event honoring the Feast of our Patron, St. Francis of Assisi. Alumnae from nearly 60 of our graduating classes were in attendance. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon surrounded by faculty, classmates and their families. Special thanks to our event Co-Chairs Tina Bonilla Semon ’86 and Julie Sazaki ’86 for organizing a fantastic event.

30 On September 23, 2015, Blessed Junipero Serra became the first Saint to be Canonized in the United States. In a letter to the Holy Father in December 2014, the Minister General of the Franciscans, Father Michael Perry, after briefly describing the life of Serra, particu- larly his missionary activity and listing the nine missions founded by him in Alta California, presented the Blessed One “as a religious man exemplary for his spirit of humility, penitence, boundless generosity towards the poor, strong during suffering, obedient to his Superiors and loyal to the Teachings of the Church.” St. Francis was given the honor of sending a delegation to witness the Mass of Canonization with our Holy Father Pope Francis at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Washington, DC. Eight​ students and two chaperones share their life changing journey in our next edition of the Pax et Bonum Magazine.

Fall 2015 31 Service in Baltimore By Steve Shaff

Steve Shaff is in his third year as the Assistant Athletic Director for Sports Information at St. Francis. Shaff, a product of Salpointe Catholic High School in Tucson, has over 20 years of sports publicity experience at the University of Florida and Northern Arizona University. He chaperoned his first service trip to Baltimore with Director of Technology Lori Dwyre.

Service trips can be many things to many people, but everyone is impacted, whether it is the servant or client. For St. Francis rising seniors, the participation in the Center for Ministry Development’s service trip this past June to Baltimore left its mark in many ways. “I was amazed with the kindness each person showed me,” said Bridget Foy ’16. “People who have no home, money, or food still expressed to me how blessed they were, and I learned to appreciate what I have. I realized that you can still be happy without material goods or money.”

Baltimore was one of five service trips coordinated by the St. Francis Campus Ministry Department, including trips to New Orleans, LA, the Bronx, NY, Winnebago, NE and San Francisco, CA.

Each trip itinerary varies by location but includes a service component in their local city. Several of the trips are developed in coordination with Young Neighbors in Action (YNIA), a program of the Center for Ministry Development.

The YNIA goals for the program take several key considerations into development and design. They hope to energize the young people, their families and the entire community around the Christian call to service and justice while educating them through the involvement with the hope of integration in their home areas. “We hope the service programs spark our girls to develop and seek opportunities to continue answering the call to service and justice in their own community,” said Campus Minister for Christian Service Stephanie Villanueva ’98.

The Baltimore trip included work at two different sites each day for three days, starting with a shift at a local food bank – the Franciscan Center. The St. Francis group worked with the hot meal program and the food pantry, welcoming guests, serving, dining and conversing with guests, cleaning up and packing emergency distribution bags. “The St. Francis girls were the most welcoming group we have ever had volunteer at our center,” said the director of the Franciscan Center. The Franciscan Center also has a clothing and
