Arrupe 2015-2016 Jesuit High School Annual Report

the school that works in ! LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Supporters of Arrupe,

2015-2016 was special. After being heavily focused on construction for a few years through our Working for the Future campaign, we thought we were ready to move on to life after hard hats, drilling, and dust. But God had a different plan in mind and we weren’t quite there yet. Thanks to the incredible generosity of a benefactor, our construction continued to complete final renovations on several spaces not included in our Working for the Future campaign (existing classrooms, science labs, computer lab, elevator and more). Our school has been transformed into the space our students deserve and if you haven’t already, I hope you’ll come by for a tour in coming weeks.

Through it all, the students of Arrupe Jesuit remained grateful, determined, faithful, and steadfast in their work towards a brighter future. They attended retreats with their classmates, planned and participated in all school masses, made it to the playoffs in Boys Soccer, hosted Prom at the Museum of Nature & Science, livestreamed the Pope’s speech to Congress, heard from a Holocaust survivor, finished 8th at the Robotics State competition, went to work at 120 CWSP partner organizations, and for the tenth consecutive year 100% of Seniors graduated on time and were accepted into college (70% of which were the first in their families to graduate high school!).

We heard from alumni all over the world. Several received various leadership awards at their colleges, one studied abroad in Israel, one completed an internship in Panama City, five are currently enrolled in graduate school programs, one bought her first home, and seven are now in management roles supervising AJHS students at the very employers they worked for through CWSP.

As President of Arrupe Jesuit, it is my honor and privilege to share this report with you showcasing just what a special year it was. We thank you for your support of our students and for your belief in their futures. Keep with us as we celebrate the accomplishments you’ll read about and move into the year ahead!

Continued blessings,

Rev. Timothy M. McMahon, SJ

Arrupe Jesuit alumni Jose Madrid, ’10 and Dau Doldol, ’14 got together in Georgetown last summer connecting over their shared history at Arrupe Jesuit and their shared commitment to creating a better world. Jose graduated from Georgetown University in 2014 and you may recall seeing his photo on the front steps of Georgetown law on his first day – he’s close to completing his law degree in 2017. Dau is currently attending American University anticipating graduating in the Class of 2018. Says AJHS Director of College Counseling, Joanne Augustine, “They will move mountains if they work together!!!”

Class of 2015 graduate, Jesus Yanez, is taking advantage of everything Creighton University has to offer! He began working in the admissions office during his freshman year and continues to excel at work and in the classroom. He is the official Creighton University Spanish translator and can be requested by families for tours and college visits. He is also translating all admissions documents into Spanish to help future Blue Jays and their families. Since Jesus is a first generation college student himself, he applied and was accepted to be a part of Student Support Services, which helps first generation college students and minorities with advising and academics. As if that was not keeping him busy enough, Jesus is double majoring in Education and Biology – and he is the President of the Latino Student Association. We could not be more proud of all that Jesus has immersed himself in during his college journey. 2015-2016 CORPORATE WORK As the first of five federal agencies to partner with Arrupe Jesuit, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has STUDY PARTNERS been a workplace home to over 30 students over

It is a selfless day of service dedicated to Arrupe Jesuit, and it helps to strengthen the sense of community that defines our school.

What brought you to Arrupe Jesuit? I have lived in Colorado my whole life. I started working here as an Alum Service Corps (ASC) volunteer 4 years ago and have been here ever since. I was introduced to Jesuit education when I attended Regis Jesuit High School in Aurora and then Regis University in Denver. I also completed my master’s degree at Regis University last year.

What is the most meaningful thing about being on faculty here? Working with kids. Our kids are so full of energy and experiences that there is never a dull moment. It’s great to be able to engage students in authentic conversations both within and outside of the classroom.

What is one of your most memorable experiences here? Every year I participate in the Freshman Retreat and every year it is quite memorable both for students and staff. The retreat is a great way to welcome the freshmen into our community and to show them what it means to be “of Arrupe Jesuit.”

What is a unique challenge about being an Arrupe teacher? It’s always challenging to respect students’ lives outside of school while also holding them accountable for a college preparatory curriculum. We have a responsibility to prepare them for college and life outside of Arrupe but we also have to care for them as people and to understand that they have responsibilities outside of school. It’s about finding balance between the two.

What is your hope for our students/alumni? My hope for Arrupe Jesuit students and alumni is that their Jesuit education affects their choices for their future. We teach them to be religious, loving, intellectually competent, committed to justice, open to growth, and work experienced in high school but I hope that they will also continue to be those things as they grow older and continue their formation. I hope that they continue to be men and women for others no matter where their lives take them.

In November 2015, in preparation for Thanksgiving break, our students reflected on what they are each thankful for. Heartwarming and moving, they shared things such as:

“I am thankful for this job “I am grateful for the effort “This year I am grateful for experience. I am thankful my mom puts into keeping “I’m thankful for a working at Campbell Killin for the life I have been us going as a family. I am supportive family, for God, Brittan & Ray again, for my given and I am thankful for grateful for my education and to work at a place “I am grateful for being a part family, and for my mom’s having food on my plate of the team with my work at Arrupe and for my where I matter.” cooking.” – Alyssa (Freshman) every day.” and friends/school.
