Making a miege education possible...

(Exerpt from The Leaven newspaper with permission. October 2014)

ROELAND PARK — “It’s a big relief.” That’s the shared sentiment among Bishop Miege students here, receiving the Good Samaritan Scholarship. For sophomore Emily Brady however, it’s so much more. “It has changed my life,” she said. “I’m not going to lie. I would not be OK right now if I hadn’t come to Miege.” At the end of her seventh-grade year in St. John Paul II School in Overland Park, Emily’s world was rocked by heartache when her father died unexpectedly. “It was really sudden,” she said. “We went to bed and woke up, and he was gone. He was 41; I was 13 and my brother was 12.” As she started her eighth-grade year, instead of looking forward to high school, Em- ily was dreading it. At a time when she most needed the support of her Catholic community, she was going to lose it. Without her father’s income, tuition at a Catholic high school was beyond her family’s reach. “That summer, I got the Almost Miegian [newsletter],” she recalled. “There was a little box that had information about the Good Samaritan Scholarship. “I didn’t know if I would qualify or if it would be enough. But it made me happy to think I might be able to do something to help my mom.” With the scholarship, Emily was able to enroll in Bishop Miege. And because the scholarship is renewable, she is confident she will stay through graduation. “I still sometimes can’t believe it,” she said. “If I’d gone to public school, I would have lost this close-knit community of people who actually care about me.”

32 2014-2015 ANNUAL REPORT n BISHOP MIEGE HIGH SCHOOL New Program.. Beginning Fall Project Lead the Way-Engineering of 2016!! A Four-Year Engineering Program Project Lead the Way (PLTW) courses provide a high rigor, project-based curriculum aimed at building problem solving, teamwork, communication, and leadership skills.

The program will help students build the math, science, and technology skills to prepare for and succeed in tomorrow’s careers. The program provides opportunities to develop highly transferable skills in critical thinking, collaboration, and problem solving, which are relevant for any coursework or career.

• Introduction to Engineering Design (Year 1) In this introductory course, students will learn the engineering design process by applying math, science, and engineering stan- dards to identify and design solutions to a variety of real problems. Students will work both individually and in collaboration teams to design, develop and document solutions. Current (industry standard) 3D design and modeling software will be used to represent and communicate solutions.

• Principles of Engineering (Year 2) The focus of this course is to build, test, and analyze solutions through problem solving. Topics include mechanisms, energy, statics, materials, programming, machine control, and kinematics.

* Civil Engineering and Architecture Students will apply their knowledge of engineer- ing principles to the design and development of residential and commercial projects. Students will use architectural 3D software to communicate their solutions to a variety of real world challenges.

* Aerospace Engineering This course explores the evolution of flight, navigation and control, flight fundamentals, aerospace materials, propulsion, space travel, and orbital mechanisms. * to be added in following years

This program will further our student’s education and will allow them to start earning college credit beginning their freshman year for the courses offered. (Missouri S & T, Wichita State University, University of Iowa)
