2 notre dame preparatory high school • annual report 2009-10 Dear Friends,

Notre Dame Prep continues to build on its reputation of being an outstanding secondary institution for learning and character building. Our philosophy to concentrate on building minds, bodies, and souls for the Lord has certainly paid dividends. This Annual Report reflects the positive gains in every aspect of school life that Notre Dame Preparatory has accomplished this past year.

Last spring, we once again sent all of our graduating seniors on to higher education. These students were accepted into some of the finest colleges and universities across the nation and earned more than $3.4 million in scholarships. Athletically, Notre Dame won eight state championships, and more importantly, our students performed more than 32,000 hours benefitting those less fortunate in the community.

Financially, with the help of Carolyn Rock and her Development Department staff, along with the help and support of our parent groups and the Notre Dame community at large, we met or exceeded all of our projected fund-raising goals. It is important to note that because of this consistent support, Notre Dame remains fiscally responsible and is able to look to the future with confidence in our ability to provide for the future of this diocesan high school.

In conclusion, once again, our students have shown themselves to be prepared to meet the challenges of the outside world. We have accomplished a great deal this past year, and with the continued support of parents, friends, and benefactors, we will continue to chart a course of constant positive growth for those students who now, and who will in the future, attend Notre Dame Preparatory.

Sincerely,

David D. Gonsalves Principal

notre dame preparatory high school • annual report 2009-10 3 Dear Friends and Families of Notre Dame Preparatory,

Notre Dame Preparatory, now in its eighth year, continues its tradition of excellence in every area. I believe that as you read the annual report you will feel a great sense of pride and satisfaction in the well-rounded education our students receive.

Notre Dame Preparatory continues to not only send all of our graduates on to higher education, but we send them on to colleges and universities all over the world. The Class of 2010 has great reason to celebrate the more than $3 million dollars in scholarships that were awarded for both academic and athletic achievement.

Despite the economic difficulties, the Chairman of our Finance Committee, Peter Morrow, reports that Notre Dame Preparatory continues to enjoy a strong financial position. Thanks to the work of so many people who work to raise money for the school we are able continue to offer our students a high quality education. The efforts of the Mother’s Guild, Booster Club and Development Department have greatly contributed to the strides we have made in continuing to improve the school so that it is the best that it can be.

A special thank you to Sister Yolanda Mendoza, the Director of Campus Ministry. Through her guidance, our students continue the legacy of giving back to the community. They have volunteered an astounding 32,000 hours plus of community service to organizations that desperately need our help in this challenging economic climate.

My time on the School Advisory Board has now come to an end and I leave the Board knowing that is in very capable hands. My daughters, Bridget and Becca, both graduated from Notre Dame Preparatory and were very well prepared for their college experiences. Notre Dame Preparatory holds a very special place in my heart, and it always will.

We can all be very proud of Notre Dame Preparatory as it moves into the future embracing its pledge to instill in our students Reverence, Respect and Responsibility.

Sincerely,

Beth McDonald President, Notre Dame Preparatory School Board

Notre Dame Preparatory students actively contribute to our campus and to our community, aided by the support of many generous parents and teachers. While NDP students are required to serve our community by completing a schedule of Christian service hours, we are also blessed with many wonderful students who go above and beyond the requirements. The Class of 2010 volunteered a total of more than 32,740 service hours during their four years at Notre Dame. The entire NDP student body contributes thousands of Christian service hours each year to Sister Yolanda Mendoza their churches and to organizations, including Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics, and the Director of Campus Ministry Society of St. Vincent de Paul, to name but a few. Having been assigned as chaplain to NDP by Bishop Olmsted the previous year, Fr. Michael Goodyear continued his service to Notre Dame during the 2009-10 school year. Having a priest on campus is a blessing for our school as it is a wonderful opportunity for all to grow in their faith. Fr. Goodyear was instrumental in establishing the school’s new Bring It! club, with the goal of helping young men grow in their understanding of Christian manhood while laying a foundation for being future husbands and fathers. The Senior Legacy Club continued its efforts under the direction of theology faculty member Mrs. Mary Lou Lachvayder to establish a legacy of service and commitment to those most in need, while Theology Department Head Barbara Stanley and CHRISTIAN SERVICE I enjoyed working with the students on the Liturgy Committee.

notre dame preparatory high school • annual report 2009-10 13 A Legacy of Strength... The Booster Club enjoyed a successful year in 2009-10 with the support of a great board of directors and hundreds of supportive members and volunteers. Notre Dame continues to merit its well-earned reputation as an outstanding high school that attracts students with the potential to excel both on and off the playing field. Many new trophies and banners were added over the course of the school year to the Dale M. Jensen Gymnasium as the Saints won team championships in Girls’ Track and Field, Girls’ Tennis, Phil Hugus Boys’ Golf, Girls’ Golf, Hockey, Pom, Show Cheer, Stunt Cheer, and Spiritline. Congratulations to the Booster Club President Girls’ Track team for winning its first state title! Nineteen members of the Class of 2010 have gone on to further their athletic prowess at the college level. Talented NDP athletes also won numerous individual state championship medals in Swimming, Girls’ Golf, Girls’ Tennis, and Girls’ Track. Booster Club Board 2009-10 The Booster Club is proud to have supported these outstanding teams, their coaches, and our superb athletic director, Mike Mahon, who at year’s end announced he had accepted a teaching position abroad. Phil Hugus Under his leadership, NDP has become a powerhouse to be reckoned with in the Arizona Interscholastic President Association’s 4A Division II. The club is deeply grateful for its hardworking members who provide impor- Mike Harvey tant social and financial support to Notre Dame’s athletic programs. The club is deeply grateful for his Vice President and five years of service to our school and for his role in motivating the club’s hardworking members who President-Elect provide important social and financial support to Notre Dame’s athletic programs. Susan McWeeny Treasurer 2009-2010 BOOSTER CLUB HIGHLIGHTS Mary Williams Events Director The club added more than 140 new families to its membership roster this year, bringing total membership to more than 500 families. Through its membership drive and annual golf tournament, Lisa Gallagher the club was able to contribute more than $100,000 to support NDP athletic programs. NDP’s 8th Membership Director Annual Golf Tournament at Troon North Golf Club was another resounding success under the Tony Montgomery direction of co-chairs Tom Lehman and Tony Montgomery, raising $70,000. The club also held four Golf Tournament Chair successful events on campus this year: the Fall, Winter, and Spring Sports Festivals, and the second annual Night of Champions. The club was proud to present two inspirational speakers to Notre Dame students and families: Rudy Ruettiger of Notre Dame Fighting Irish football fame spoke at the Fall Sports Festival, and NFL player Ray McElroy, chaplain for the Chicago Bears, brought the crowd to its feet at the Night of Champions. Brandon Maxwell and his team at M Catering continued their support of NDP athletics by providing Notre Dame families with top-notch fare at our festivals and at the game concession stands. 2009 GOLF TOURNAMENT GOLF TOURNAMENT COMMITTEE Tom Lehman, Tournament Chair (not pictured); Pictured (L to R): Phil Hugus, Booster Club President; Tony Montgomery, Co-Chair; Carol Rinella, Susan McWeeny, Pam Ferrari, Mike Harvey, Deanna Wille, Cathie Cuda, and Jim Schiffer.

notre dame preparatory high school • annual report 2009-10 17 A Legacy of Support... Dear Parents and Friends of Notre Dame Preparatory:

Beginning with the school’s signature event, The Taste of Excellence Gala, and concluding with the fabulous Mothers’ Guild Auction and Fashion Show, Notre Dame parents and friends demonstrated the strong community support that has become the school’s trademark. While the economy and mixed financial markets provided challenges, Notre Dame nevertheless met its financial goals through the support of parents, grandparents, parents of alumni, and friends who contributed their time and resources.

In the fall, event chair Sally Cashman and culinary co-chairs Brandon Maxwell and Michael Carolyn Rock DeMaria coordinated an assemblage of 16 of the Valley’s finest restaurants for the annual Director of Development Taste of Excellence Gala. A high point of the evening was the raffle of a Mercedes C300 sports sedan, which was generously donated by Mark and Amanda Bosco. The proceeds from the event benefited the NDP “Scholarships for Now” Fund.

More than 470 donors contributed to the Annual Fund and helped us achieve our goal of $200,000. Thank you to our annual fund co-chairs Lora Drummond and George Krueger. The freshmen won the first Annual Fund Class Challenge and received a catered dinner on the field before the Homecoming fireworks display. The Annual Fund is the backbone of the school’s fundraising and provides for the current needs of our students and faculty.

The CTODP committee led by Denis Slawsby raised more than $300,000 for financial aid through the state’s tax-credit program. In addition, NDP was the beneficiary of a benevolent corporate donor who provided more than $500,000 in funds for needy students. As a result of this generosity, 13 students are receiving a Notre Dame education who otherwise would not be able to attend the school. This is an inspirational example of how our corporate community can change the lives of others through tax credits.

The Booster Club’s popular Golf Tournament set new records in 2009. It was Tony Montgomery’s last year as chair, and he concluded it on a very successful note. The end of the year culminated with a fabulous Mothers’ Guild auction at the Scottsdale Plaza Resort. Chair Janet Ault and her committee coordinated a lovely evening that culminated in a grand finalés as our senior students took the stage to model fashions by Dillard’s. A new tradition was established that evening when NDP recognized two volunteers who had led the school in its early years. Dale Jensen and Kirk Tushaus were honored as the school’s first recipients of the Patron Saint Award. The event surpassed its goal and was a true celebration of the school, its seniors, and their achievements.

As we begin fundraising efforts for 2010-2011, I cannot stress enough the importance of your contributions. Notre Dame‘s success is due, in large part, to those who believed in the school and have fostered its growth through gifts of time, talent and financial support. On behalf of Notre Dame’s faculty and students, I express my deepest appreciation.

Sincerely,

Carolyn Rock Director of Development
