2 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN

Dear ,

What a great year for Nativity School of Worcester! The 2012-2013 academic year, our 10th, was filled with hope, promise, excitement, and success. We are very proud to share this annual report with you and hope that its words and images will properly convey the little miracles happening every day in our community – a community that exists thanks to you and hundreds of others who share their time, talent, and treasure with the nearly 160 Nativity Men, their families, and our faculty and administration.

A few highlights from our year and our success:

• We celebrated the school’s 10th anniversary with a series of events highlighting our Four Pillars: Strength, Scholarship, Service, and Character. We hosted a Community BBQ on August 26 – the date Nativity Worcester first opened its doors in 2003 - and the Mass of the Holy Spirit in September officially kicked off our year of celebration. November brought a panel discussion entitled “Breaking the Cycle of Poverty Through Education: Ten Years of Lessons from Nativity Worcester.” In the spring, we hosted our 8th Annual Spring Auction Night, where we honored our Partners in the Promise – the Fuller Family, St. John’s High School, and the College of the Holy Cross. Later in April, the Nativity Worcester Boy Choir joined the Holy Cross Chamber Singers for a concert on Mount St. James, and in May the entire Nativity Worcester community participated in a community service day all throughout Worcester giving back to a community and a city that has given us so much.

• Our Nativity Men participated in and produced wonderful plays and art work for both our Winter and Spring Arts Nights – one of the highlights of every academic year!

• The 7th and 8th Grade Basketball Team earned the school’s first-ever Diocese of Worcester Championship and represented the Diocese in the New CYO Tournament in April.

• All three of our Nativity Teaching Fellows completed our program – two with an M.A.T. from Clark University and one with her M.B.A. from Assumption College – then signed on to work in urban schools, continuing the strong tradition of our Fellows serving as the next generation of urban educators working with those traditionally underserved.

• We graduated the Blessed Rupert Mayer Class in June after a very successful high school placement process in which 100% of the class were accepted into private high schools and received sufficient financial aid to attend. The class also showed impressive growth over their four years at NSW. The class entered as 5th graders in 2009 testing below grade level in mathematics, reading, and language usage and graduated testing at a 10th grade level in math, and an amazing 11th grade level in reading and language usage! One student came into Nativity Worcester scoring in the first percentile in reading and completed his time with us at the 68th percentile and is enjoying a successful freshman year at St. John’s 3 High School. This is the very real impact of the Nativity Worcester Experience that you support. We also want to acknowledge the exemplary service of four of our board members who concluded their service to our school. Thank you to Bob Grenon, Eric Harthun, Ed Reynolds, and Paul Reville. Welcome to Elizabeth Fee, Calvin Hill, Julie Kaneb, and Jane Mosakowski who joined our board in September through a unanimous vote by our Board of Trustees!

There is so much to be proud of at Nativity School of Worcester. As we look to this coming spring, when our first class of graduates will complete their 12-year experience in our program, we are eternally grateful for your support – a support that makes an impact not just for a summer or a year, but a lifetime.

With immense gratitude,

Family and friends joined the 15 members of the Blessed Rupert Mayer Class of 2013 on Friday, June 7 to celebrate their graduation from Nativity School of Worcester. Student speaker, Dervin Hylton, and community speaker, Emily Gallagher spoke to the audience assembled in the school’s gymnasium.

Then fifth grade was the like the first run-through of a play without knowing what your role is. We were shy kids, but as we got to know one another we became reckless. Any consequence given to us would have a reaction, and it wasn’t always the nicest reaction. The fifth grade class room has cubbies instead of lockers and whenever one of us would get in trouble, we’d sit in the cubby with our jackets and backpacks on top of us. We would throw our books on the floor, and zip up our fleece up so it would cover our face. Ms. Gallagher will tell you a little more about how we were “Wild Things” later. DERVIN’S GRADUATION SPEECH Coming back to the school for sixth grade was Good evening. My name is Dervin Hylton, and I more comfortable. We got one addition to our class am a member of the Mayer Class. I would like to for sixth grade, our friend Martin Mancia. Before welcome families, friends, and the entire extended long we all knew each other well and weren’t afraid Nativity Worcester community. We are thankful to make mistakes.

maybe even a bit too much fun. That year, for When I was talking with Mr. Gitkind about what Winter Arts Night, we put on “A Christmas Carol” to put in my speech, we realized that the plays along with the seventh graders. I played the part would be a good way to express what the Mayer of Scrooge in that play, and it was up to me to be class is all about. William Shakespeare once wrote like Scrooge and not care for people. It wasn’t a in his play, “As You Like It,” that, “All the world’s a difficult challenge for me to do. As a sixth grader stage, and all the men and women merely players: I remember not worrying about how others felt, I they have their exits and entrances…” In a lot only cared about what was happening to me. Like of ways, the Mayer Class have been like actors at Scrooge, I was in for a rude awakening. I was a Nativity. We appeared on the stage in fifth grade guy that lived in detention that year. Scrooge was and now we are exiting.

These three spirits showed It was our best year as a class in terms of discipline. him how wrong he had been about life. Like We had fewer demerits, detentions, and talks with Scrooge, I would also have to deal with three spirits Mr. Dillon. The Mayer Class decided to put on when getting in trouble in class: a detention-giving “The Outsiders”, for our Spring Arts Night. Like teacher, an angry principal, and a disappointed the main character Ponyboy, we came to recognize aunt. But unlike Scrooge, I wasn’t visited by these that what we did in the past wasn’t so great. Like people just once. I would have to go through the the entire greaser gang we learned to look out for nightmare multiple times. As the year ended I one another and have each other’s backs. If you realized I had been as wrong as Scrooge.

After that Winter brotherhood. Arts Night, I had half a year left until I hit seventh grade. I was prepared to change my whole life As Shakespeare said, people have their entrances around for the next year. as well as their exits. Our time is up here at Nativity Worcester, our play has drawn to a close, But of course, we still entered seventh grade as and this graduation is kind of like our final bow. immature kids. We were thinking seventh grade I, personally, would like to thank my classmates, would be the same way as the two previous faculty, family, and the entire Nativity Worcester years. But it wasn’t. Like doing dress rehearsals community. My classmates have helped me see of a play, we had to get serious. Ms. Gallagher things from different perspectives. I can go to them was our teacher again, but it wasn’t the same old with any problem and I can get many different Ms. Gallagher. She suddenly had much higher answers. The Nativity Worcester faculty has helped expectations for us. We did “The Chronicles of me excel in academics. Narnia” for that Winter Arts Night. Like Narnia, seventh grade was its own little world. As those My family has helped the most. My aunt for always four siblings from the play traveled through a being there, and keeping her temper whenever I mystical land, they found that it was their job to come home with a detention slip.

LAPTOP CART

Thanks to a recent donation, Nativity School of Worcester was able to double the number of computers in the school building. Previously, the Jesuit Resource Center, made possible by a donation from the Jesuit Community at Holy Cross, provided a library/computer lab located on the bottom level of the school which has enough computers for a single class. These additional laptop computers allows for up to two classes to use computers at any given time, thereby doubling the capacity for our students to have access to the Internet and providing greater flexibility for teachers, allowing them to plan a wider range of lessons.

I have a lot of memories from this school: good ones, bad ones, and funny ones.
