Synergy Bolsters Catholic Universities, K-12 Schools in Baltimore Archdiocese Synergy bolsters Catholic universities, K-12 schools in Baltimore archdiocese By Erik Zygmont [email protected] Twitter: @ReviewErik A pleasant surprise for parents sending their children to Catholic schools with eyes toward a quality college education: Their children are already benefitting from Catholic universities in the Archdiocese of Baltimore. Collaboratively and independently, Notre Dame of Maryland University in Baltimore, Loyola University Maryland in Baltimore and Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg have established mutually beneficial partnerships with the Catholic schools in the archdiocese. In collaboration, the three institutions offer the Principals Leadership Institute of Advanced Study, a certificate program for principals and assistant principals selected by the archdiocese to participate. Modules are held at all three universities, focusing on a range of leadership aspects, from the practical (Finance and Marketing: Beyond the Chocolate Bar) to the spiritual (The Role of the Catholic Leader: The Spirit of Leadership). A more in-depth look at the commitments of the three Catholic universities follows. Mount St. Mary’s University Founded in 2009 at the behest of Thomas Powell, then-president of the Mount and now president of St. John’s Catholic Prep in Buckeystown, the Center for Catholic School Excellence offers professional development and consulting services for faculty and administrators of Catholic schools. “We go to schools and do professional development, and sometimes they come here,” explained Elizabeth Monahan, director of the Mount’s master’s degree in education programs as well as the university’s Center for Catholic School Excellence (CCSE). The CCSE advisory board, which includes Dr. Barbara McGraw Edmondson, archdiocesan superintendent of Catholic schools, meets annually to discuss the needs of Catholic schools in the area surrounding the Mount. In a professional-development partnership with St. John Regional Catholic School, the PreK-8 Frederick institution receives the benefit of having a Mount professor on its campus about one-and-a-half days a week. “The professor participates in faculty meetings and other functions and gets a sense of the needs of St. John Regional,” Monahan said. “Then, we can provide them with that professional development.” The Mount is also assisting and advising St. Frances Academy in Baltimore on its strategic plan. Loyola University Maryland Though Loyola’s School of Education is relatively young, it has wasted no time in involving itself where needed. “Given our Jesuit Catholic identity, we knew we wanted to focus on urban Catholic schools,” said Stephanie Flores-Koulish, director of Loyola’s Center for Innovation in Urban Education, which counts among its initiatives the Institute for Urban Catholic Education. Archbishop Borders School, Cardinal Shehan School, Holy Angels Catholic School and Ss. James and John Catholic School, all Pre-K-8 institutions in Baltimore, enjoy a “pretty comprehensive connection” with Loyola, according to Flores-Koulish. Eight Loyola faculty members are involved with the four schools, providing in- residence presence and guidance as well as professional development and student enrichment. “The residents work from the micro-level, assisting with assessments of students, working with the specific learning needs of the students and working with the staff to assess what those needs are,” Flores-Koulish said. Loyola is also helping the four institutions improve STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) programming after school, and is supporting them as they prepare for accreditation reviews in the next couple of years. “It’s great long-term work for the schools,” Flores-Koulish said. Furthermore, Loyola graduate students assist the resident faculty members as they support the schools, teaching English at Archbishop Borders, for example, and planning an after-school writing program. Notre Dame of Maryland University Currently working with more than 25 schools from the Baltimore and Washington archdioceses, Notre Dame’s Academy of Catholic Educators continues to grow, according to Gail Donahue, its director. “As principals hear about us, they want to become more involved in the program,” she said. With a fully-equipped classroom for Catholic school t eachers ready to go, thanks to an $80,000 grant from the Marion I. and Henry J. Knott Foundation (featured on page 24), the program, dubbed “ACES,” emphasizes training teachers in 21stcentury technology and studentcentered instruction. ACES teachers, Donahue said, learn to facilitate their students’ use of iPads, interactive projectors, smart boards and “whatever’s on their device.” “The idea is to make technology seamless,” she said, adding that ACES teachers incorporate tech into students’ learning rather than teach it directly. “That’s how it is in the workplace,” Donahue noted. “You use technology every day. It’s not, ‘Oh, it’s technology time. I’m going to use technology now.’ ” Notre Dame also provides Catholic schools with manpower. Junioryear students intern in schools in the archdiocese while graduate students serve as full-fledged teachers through the university’s Operation TEACH (Teachers Enlisted to Advance Catholic Heritage) program. “We really do it on a continuum,” observed School Sister of Notre Dame Sharon Slear, dean of education for the university. Operation TEACH currently has 23 graduate students enrolled, teaching in 14 schools in the archdiocese, according to Angela Simmons, who directs the two-year program. “People who do this program need to want to be part of the Catholic Church’s traditions and teachings,” she said, adding that the “spiritual component” – the student-teachers live in religion-focused communities for the two years – is what makes Operation TEACH unique. Theresa Fasullo, a graduate of the University of Dayton (Ohio), now teaching first grade at Sacred Heart School in Glyndon, said joining the program was the right decision. “What has been an incredible blessing has been being able to continue growing in my faith surrounded by others while transitioning into an education career,” she wrote in an email to the Catholic Review. Simmons noted that Operation TEACH staff members tend to continue on with their schools after their two years in the program. “The principals are really the ones who support and maintain this program,” she added. “Without them hiring our teachers, it wouldn’t exist.” For more information about Operation TEACH, click here.

In it, I asked the people of our Archdiocese to enter into a deeper relationship with Christ, to be not merely His disciples but His missionary disciples, extending the light of the Gospel to others among us so that they, too, could fully welcome His Word into their hearts. The Catholic Community Foundation is uniquely positioned to aid this evangelization effort for years to come. “Through their endowed giving, Foundation contributors are helping to foster a culture of Catholic growth and renewal.” Established in 1998 by my predecessor, Cardinal William H. Keeler, the Catholic Community Foundation has grown to over 470 separate funds, each with its own unique purpose and benefit. Not only are our parishes well-represented and supported by the Foundation, so too are our Catholic schools, clergy, religious and a host of ministries that are critically integral to carrying out the Church’s evangelizing work. Indeed, through their endowed giving, Foundation contributors are helping to foster a culture of Catholic growth and renewal.

  • Archdiocese of Baltimore and Catholic Review Sponsor 108-Mile Walking Pilgrimage to Philadelphia and Papal Mass
    Archdiocese of Baltimore and Catholic Review Sponsor 108-Mile Walking Pilgrimage to Philadelphia and Papal Mass A priest of the Archdiocese of Baltimore and the managing editor of the official newspaper of the Archdiocese, The Catholic Review, will lead a 20-person Pilgrimage of Love and Mercy, a 108-mile walk from Baltimore to Philadelphia. They will honor Pope Francis’ first visit to the United States and raise funds for both the archdiocese and nations in the developing world. Father John J. Lombardi, pastor of St. Peter in Hancock and St. Patrick in Little Orleans, and Paul McMullen, managing editor of the Catholic Review and CatholicReview.org, will lead a group who range in age from 14 to 69. They will depart the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Baltimore after 10:45 a.m. Mass Sept. 20, and seven days later join an estimated 1 million Sept. 27 along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia, site of the only public Mass to be celebrated by Pope Francis in the U.S. The walking pilgrimage is sponsored by the Archdiocese of Baltimore and Catholic Review, which also organized same-day bus and train transportation to the Sept. 27 Mass in Philadelphia. The walking pilgrimage includes a shoe drive, “Feet for Francis,” which will benefit both the Archdiocese of Baltimore and nations such as Benin, Haiti and Pakistan. Walking 16 miles most days, pilgrims will rely on the support of parishes, schools and other Catholic institutions. “Remember, our Lord walked to all of his appointments,” Father Lombardi told the Catholic Review.

  • Archdiocese Celebrates 200 Years of Meeting Challenges,Undaunted Missionary Spirit,Gaels Celebrate the Opening of Plevyak Field
    Archdiocese celebrates 200 years of meeting challenges When Bishop John Carroll took possession of what was then the Diocese of Baltimore in December 1790, America’s first Catholic bishop faced tremendously daunting challenges. With few resources, he was called to build parishes and schools, raise a native clergy and meet the pastoral needs of a diocese that encompassed the entire country. By the time the diocese was raised to archdiocesan status in 1808, it was clear the newly elevated Archbishop Carroll was more than up to the task. In his 25 years as spiritual shepherd, Archbishop Carroll founded three colleges and two seminaries, cared for a Catholic population that doubled in size and strongly promoted the foundation of many religious orders – among numerous other accomplishments, according to Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien. In an April 13 celebration of the 200th anniversary of the raising of the Baltimore diocese to archdiocesan status, Archbishop O’Brien said there are numerous challenges that face Catholics today that are no less daunting than those of two centuries ago. But just as Catholics persevered then with faith and prayer, so, too, do believers today. The bicentennial Mass was celebrated at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Baltimore – the country’s first Catholic cathedral established by Archbishop Carroll and restored by Cardinal William H. Keeler. Following the liturgy, Archbishop O’Brien dedicated a white marble bust of Cardinal Keeler honoring the cardinal for his contributions to the archdiocese and the basilica. In his homily, Archbishop O’Brien said Catholics cannot rest and never have rested “contently and complacently in our secure sheepfold.” “Indeed in our midst are pastures poisoned with drugs, dark valleys overwhelmed with the hopeless homeless, fields plagued by abortion mills, reverberating with gunshots and murders,” he said.

  • History of Ascension Parish 1913 ~ 2013 Researched and Written by Theresa Miller Spliedt
    History of Ascension Parish 1913 ~ 2013 Researched and Written by Theresa Miller Spliedt The early Roman Catholic residents of Halethorpe attended Mass and received sacraments in nearby parishes, such as Saint Joseph’s Monastery on Frederick Avenue, Saint Clement’s in Lansdowne, Saint Benedict’s on Wilkens Avenue, or Saint Jerome’s on W. Hamburg Street. The growing number of Roman Catholic residents in Halethorpe created a need for a place to worship within the community. In 1911, the Roman Catholic residents of Halethorpe approached Father John Sullivan, the pastor of Saint Clement parish, with the request to create a mission parish in Halethorpe. Father Sullivan consented and corresponded with His Eminence James Cardinal Gibbons to obtain permission. In his annual parish report of January 1, 1912, Father Sullivan noted that the Roman Catholic residents of Halethorpe had been attending services at Saint Joseph’s Monastery because a car-line linked the two communities and commented that he planned to have a “self-supporting mission there (Halethorpe) before the end of the year” to facilitate the practice of their Roman Catholic faith. The plans to create a mission parish in Halethorpe moved forward during 1912. A 100 foot by 120 foot parcel of land on Fairview Avenue, at its intersection with Linden Avenue, was donated to the Archbishop of Baltimore for the purpose of providing a building site for a Catholic Church in Halethorpe. A loan, in the amount of $3,000, provided the funding necessary to commence construction. The expected completion date of the church in Halethorpe was May 1, 1913, which was Ascension Thursday that year.

  • Cardinal O'brien Honored with New Bust and Painting
    Cardinal O’Brien honored with new bust and painting By Christopher Gunty [email protected] Cardinal Edwin F. O’Brien, archbishop emeritus of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, was honored with a bust, a new portrait and a building named for him in celebrations in early November in Baltimore and Washington, D.C. At the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Baltimore Nov. 8, Archbishop William Lori praised his predecessor as archbishop of Baltimore by comparing him to the founding archbishops of the archdiocese, who didn’t just build churches. Speaking of Archbishops John Carroll and Ambrose Maréchal, who played important roles in the early years of the archdiocese and the erection of the basilica, Archbishop Lori said they also built up the number of Catholics, raised awareness of vocations to the priesthood, educated the young and welcomed immigrants. He said Cardinal O’Brien also built up the community by his ministry, noting that those gathered “express our prayerful gratitude for all that you have done to strengthen the foundation of the church by proclaiming the name of Jesus.” After the Mass, Archbishop Lori noted that it is tradition for the basilica, America’s first cathedral, to feature marble busts of each of the Baltimore archbishops who have become cardinals. Also, the basilica rectory hosts a portrait of each of the 16 archbishops. Greeting family, friends and others gathered for the unveiling of the portrait and bust, Cardinal O’Brien noted that when he came to Baltimore from the Archdiocese for U.S.

  • Federal Appeals Court Rules Abuse Case Against Vatican Can Go Forward
    Federal appeals court rules abuse case against Vatican can go forward WASHINGTON – A federal appeals court ruled Nov. 24 that a lawsuit can move forward against the Vatican involving three men who claimed to have been sexually abused when they were children by priests in the Archdiocese of Louisville, Ky. However, the lead counsel to the Vatican in this case said the ruling handed down by the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals also presents significant challenges for the attorneys representing the three men in proving the Vatican is liable for damages. Louisville attorney William F. McMurry has brought what is believed to be the first clergy sexual abuse suit that names the Vatican as the sole defendant. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages, claiming a 1962 directive from the Vatican instructed church officials in Louisville to remain silent about sex abuse complaints against clergy in the archdiocese. The document became public in 2003 and the lawsuit asserts that it makes the Vatican responsible for crimes committed by clergy whose misdeeds were covered up because of the instruction. Mr. McMurry was not available to comment to Catholic News Service Nov. 25, but told The Associated Press Nov. 24 that this ruling was a significant step forward in his case. “We’re finally going to get to the root of the problem.” Mr. McMurry also represented 243 sex abuse victims who reached a settlement with the Louisville Archdiocese for $25.3 million in 2003. Jeffrey S. Lena, the Berkeley, Calif., attorney representing the Holy See in this case, said the ruling also was in many respects a good decision for the Vatican.

  • Western Vicariate Is Changing Fast,'Uncle Fran' Touches Hearts Of
    Gonzaga University president to leave post in July 2009 SPOKANE, Wash. – Jesuit Father Robert J. Spitzer, president of Gonzaga University, announced March 17 that he plans to leave his post in July 2009 and will work with the school’s board of trustees to initiate a transition in leadership at the Jesuit-run university. Father Spitzer, a graduate of Gonzaga, has been its president for the past 10 years, overseeing growth in the university’s facilities, enrollment, fundraising, technology and mission programs. “The university has made considerable progress during the past 10 years and now enjoys a momentum which will catalyze even further progress,” Father Spitzer said. “I believe that transitions are best made during times of real advance rather than times of crisis or neutrality, and so I believe that this is an ideal time to begin the transition process.” During his tenure, enrollment at the university has increased along with the annual budget. Several construction projects also took place totaling more than $200 million. In a letter to the Gonzaga community about his resignation, Father Spitzer said that after a new president is in place he plans to keep up his relationship with the school and continue to write and do presentations on ethics, faith, leadership, metaphysics and philosophy. “It has been a real privilege to work with all of you, and more importantly, to share in the faith, hope, friendship and love that you aspire to bring to one another and to the world,” he said in his March 17 letter. Father Spitzer, 56, is a native of Honolulu.
