OF WELLNESS Mrs. Mary Wald [email protected] COLLEGE ADMISSIONS PROFILE 2019-2020 MISSION STATEMENT Through a vibrant Catholic education, we cultivate the individuality, faith, talent, and aspirations of young women who will lead and serve the world. THE SCHOOL Originally, Rosati-Kain was established as two separate educational institutions named for Joseph Rosati and John Joseph Kain, the first two Archbishops of St. Louis. The centers were run by the Sisters of Saint Joseph (Rosati Center) and School Sisters of Notre Dame (Kain Center). In the fall of 1911, the two centers combined to form one school, Rosati-Kain. Presently, Rosati-Kain educates students from throughout the metropolitan St. Louis area and Illinois (109 grade schools and 66 zip codes) to enrich, cultivate, educate, and prepare them for their future in the new century. Located in the city’s Central West End, Rosati-Kain serves young women diverse in religious, geographical, social, racial, and economic backgrounds. Rosati-Kain is accredited by AdvancED. Currently there are 33 faculty members; 64% hold advanced degrees. Admission is by selection based on standardized test scores and grade school record. There are currently 277 students enrolled; 60 seniors, 85 juniors, 77 sophomores, and 55 freshmen. When asked, students identify themselves as the following: Black or African American (24%), Hispanic or Latino (5%), Multiracial (6%), White/Non-Hispanic (60%), and Other or Not Reported (5%). Currently 21% of our school’s population qualifies for free or reduced lunch according to the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s Eligibility Guidelines. THE CURRICULUM The school year consists of 2 semesters of 18 weeks (each with 9 week reporting periods). Credits and GPA are calculated each semester. GPA: set on a 4.0 scale based on all subjects. College credit and AP courses are weighted. RANK: Rosati-Kain does not rank students. GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS The minimum number of credits for graduation for all students is 28. The course distribution must meet the requirements of the AdvancED, the State of Missouri, and the standards of the Archdiocese of St. Louis.

  • Parish Apostolate: New Opportunities in the Local Church
    IV. PARISH APOSTOLATE: NEW OPPORTUNITIES IN THE LOCAL CHURCH by John E. Rybolt, C.M. Beginning with the original contract establishing the Community, 17 April 1625, Vincentians have worked in parishes. At fIrst they merely assisted diocesan pastors, but with the foundation at Toul in 1635, the fIrst outside of Paris, they assumed local pastorates. Saint Vincent himself had been the pastor of Clichy-Ia-Garenne near Paris (1612-1625), and briefly (1617) of Buenans and Chatillon­ les-Dombes in the diocese of Lyons. Later, as superior general, he accepted eight parish foundations for his community. He did so with some misgiving, however, fearing the abandonment of the country poor. A letter of 1653 presents at least part of his outlook: ., .parishes are not our affair. We have very few, as you know, and those that we have have been given to us against our will, or by our founders or by their lordships the bishops, whom we cannot refuse in order not to be on bad terms with them, and perhaps the one in Brial is the last that we will ever accept, because the further along we go, the more we fmd ourselves embarrassed by such matters. l In the same spirit, the early assemblies of the Community insisted that parishes formed an exception to its usual works. The assembly of 1724 states what other Vincentian documents often said: Parishes should not ordinarily be accepted, but they may be accepted on the rare occasions when the superior general .. , [and] his consul­ tors judge it expedient in the Lord.2 229 Beginnings to 1830 The founding document of the Community's mission in the United States signed by Bishop Louis Dubourg, Fathers Domenico Sicardi and Felix De Andreis, spells out their attitude toward parishes in the new world, an attitude differing in some respects from that of the 1724 assembly.

DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL FACTORY MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant. CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL Plaintiffs Rockhurst University and Maryville University (“Plaintiffs”), individually and on behalf of other similarly situated institutions of higher education, for its Class Action Complaint against Defendant Factory Mutual Insurance Company (“Defendant”), state and allege as follows: NATURE OF ACTION 1. Institutions of higher education have been hit particularly hard by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Since the disease began to spread rapidly across the country in late February and early March 2020, almost every college and university has taken drastic and unprecedented action to protect its students, faculty, staff, and the general public from COVID-19. This was no easy task. Most institutions of higher education are more like small- or medium-sized cities than mere schools. In addition to educating the future of America, they provide housing for hundreds or thousands of students; serve and sell food; operate stores; employ large numbers of teachers, administrators, and other employees; sponsor sports teams; host public events; and perform many other services. 1 Case 4:20-cv-00581-BCW Document 1 Filed 07/23/20 Page 1 of 22 2. On March 6, 2020, the University of Washington became the first major university to cancel in-person classes and exams.1 By the middle of March, others across the country had followed suit and more than 1,100 colleges and universities in all 50 state have canceled in-person classes and shifted to online-only instruction.

The first members of the Congregation of the Mission in North America, apart from one French confrere who worked tem- porarily in Canada before the French Revo- lution, reached the shores of Maryland in 1816. They were the priests Felix De Andreis, Joseph Rosati, John Baptist Acquaroni,' to- gether with Brother Martin Blanka, and nine students, novices, and candidates. This paper will present some brief notes on the lives, character, and impact of two of these pioneers, De Andreis and Rosati. I have also included John Timon, who brought Reverend forward the legacy of those pioneers to a John E. Rybolt, C.M. second generation.2 Felix De Andreis Biography The saintly Felix De Andreis was born in the beautiful mountain town of Demonte in the foothills of the Alps, 12 December 1778. His middle-class family saw to his education possibly to have him continue the professional careers of his father or brothers.

  • Bernard Martial & Philippine Duchesne
    BERNARD MARTIAL and PHILIPPINE DUCHESNE: TWO MISSIONARIES to LOUISIANA By Emory C. Webre 6542 Winnebago Street St. Louis, MO 63109 [email protected] Father Bertrand (Bernard) Martial, a priest from Bordeaux, France, served under bishops in four dioceses on two continents and was closely connected with important events in the dioceses of Bordeaux, Bardstown, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Detroit, as well activities in France and Italy. There are at least 83 documents in the files of the Propaganda Fide in Rome that are related to him in some way. I have located close to 250 letters from, to, or about him written during the years 1817 to 1835. He influenced the selection of one bishop in the United States and the rejection of another, and was himself considered for the Sees of New Orleans and Vincennes. He founded schools in Bordeaux, Baton Rouge and New Orleans. He escorted a future saint on her voyage to New Orleans and St. Louis. He was associated with three communities of religious women: the Religious of the Sacred Heart in St. Louis, Missouri, the Ursulines in New Orleans, Louisiana, and the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, Kentucky. 1. FATHER BERNARD MARTIAL Born in Bordeaux, France about 1770, Bertrand Martial studied for the priesthood, first, in France, and then in Italy when the French Revolution forced the closing of Catholic seminaries. A death notice in the Paris journal, l’Ami de la religion et du roi, gave some details of his life before he came to Louisiana. The death of Father Martial, in New Orleans, has stirred fitting remorse in Bordeaux, where he lived for some time, and where he rendered services that will not be forgotten.

He wrote, further, that we may never know exactly what providence expects of us but we can be sure that we will accomplish it if we are only faithful. Each of us is the beneficiary of the fidelity of those who have gone before us; our hope is that we will be as great a benefit to those who follow us. In these pages you will gain insight into the life ofa man who was faithful, whom many in his own time called a "saint." The life of Reverend Felix De Andreis, C.M., is particularly pertinent to citizens of the Midwest, to Catholics in the many Midwestern dioceses, and to theVincentian Fathers and Brothers, becausefor all oftheseindividuals hewas a part oftheirbeginnings. He, along with manyothers, certainly helped to create who and what we are today. The Archdiocese of St. Louis, in particular, owes him a great debt of gratitude. In reading the letters of De Andreis you will encounter a human being - not unlike ourselves - meeting the challenges to be holy and to be strong in the face ofsome extraordinarily difficult circumstances, not unlike our own.
