SPIRIT: A strong sense of community is integral to private schools—especially when students were learning virtually. Schools and students took to social media for silly com- petitions and fun games to keep school spirit alive. SPORTS: Athletics weren’t entirely benched when school went online. Teach- ers and coaches encourage team build- ing through virtual workouts and competi- tions—sometimes against other schools. SMARTS: Academic extracurriculars were easy to continue digitally, from morning broadcasts hosted on Instagram to chess matches on the internet. ARTS: Virtual theater productions and band performances, digital art displays and Zoom cooking clubs are just a few of the ways students were able to stay engaged in their arts and culture after- school programs.

  • Annual Report 2011-2012
    Mater Matters FALL 2012 ANNUAL REPORT 2011-2012 OPENING COMMENTS From the Principal During a recent trip to my ancestral home, Ireland, I visited St. Patrick’s Church in Glenbrohane where my great grandparents were married. This simple country church overlooks a sweeping vista of rolling hills, dotted with sheep and cows belonging to the local farmers. My cousin, Mike Tobin, whispered to me during Mass, “That chalice was the one used at your great grandmother’s wedding. The church has only one, and I am sure that was the one used.” I was distracted during Mass thinking about where John Buckley stood as he watched Ellen Tobin walk down the aisle. How did they meet? What walks did they walk? What dreams did they have for the future? Did they envision what their own life would become — immigrating to America, their future home in Philadelphia? Probably not. What John and Ellen saw was a loom inviting them to weave the fabric of their lives together into a tapestry they would never see completed. And that is the story for all of our ancestors — they weave, they make their contribution, and then they turn it over to successive generations. Catherine McAuley had the same experience. She never intended to start a religious congregation. She was advised, however, that if she wanted her work to have longevity, she needed to turn her House of Mercy into a convent. Although she opened many convents with schools and safe houses, she did not live long enough to see the tapestry of Mercy life in the United States.
