FROM THE PRINCIPAL

BOB ROWE

T

his fall, we welcomed 151 freshmen to our campus, a 14% increase in freshman students over last year! I have been asked why our enrollment is increasing while many other private schools’ enrollments are declining. My answer is that Covington Catholic has earned a reputation for educational excellence while remaining strong in our Catholic identity. For example, the average ACT score of our 2012 seniors was 25.3 – an average significantly higher than the Kentucky state average of 19.8 and the national average of 21.1. The numbers speak for themselves. So why is enrollment increasing? It is because parents believe the investment in a Covington Catholic education is worth it. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our new faculty members. Our new chaplain is Fr. Ian McDole who teaches Latin I and Church History. He has studied in Rome at The Gregorian University. We have added two new English teachers, Mrs. Christina Baulch and Mrs. Dawn Stanchek; math teacher, Ms. Susan Lippert; and technology coordinator, Mr. Brian Meyer. They round out a very solid faculty whose credentials are impeccable. On staff, we have graduates from the University of Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, and Purdue, in addition to those from our many reputable regional and strong state schools. This faculty will challenge students to reach their fullest potential. Within the next few pages, we acknowledge those who have supported our school financially. You have, in great part, enabled CCH to provide what I consider the best high school educational opportunity in the area, and I thank you.

In the pool of high schools, there are giant public schools and smaller private ones, and then there is Covington Catholic. It is large enough to offer first class facilities and a multitude of avenues of discovery, but small enough that our students get the personal attention they require to thrive. We consider this a perfect balance, and our committed donors have helped make this possible. Explore and enjoy this copy of the Journal, and be proud of the school we have worked together to make an exceptional place of spiritual, academic, physical, and social growth.

ON A MISSION IN NICARAGUA During that week, the group laid over 1100 feet of water line in 100 degree heat. “It was difficult,” said junior Justin Ryan. “Without the water line, women have to walk over seven miles a couple times a day to get water.” On the last day, the group had some fun time. Senior Kevin Boerger posted, “We celebrated Mass on the beach. It was pretty cool. As a whole, this week was a life-changing experience. It was one of the best weeks of my life.”

During their week in Nicaragua, CovCath students dug 1100 feet of ditches for water lines.

O

n Sunday, June 17, 2012, thirty-seven members of the Covington Catholic community headed to Nicaragua for a week-long mission trip to dig ditches and pour concrete. They worked on the Modern Bathroom Project with a non-profit agency there called Amigos for Christ. Christian Greenwell, a senior at Covington Catholic, posted on the group’s blog after the first day. He shared that after arriving in El Chonco, the CovCath group first had the opportunity to get to know the residents by spending time with children at school and being graciously invited

into homes. Christian was struck by the people’s lack of the most basic of resources such as clean, safe water. That afternoon, the group began their task of constructing a modern bathroom. “We had to dig a septic ditch then pour the concrete for the lid of the tank. I was so humbled by the people that when we began the work, it became a challenge for me to do the best I could for them.”

Faculty members Rich Andolina, Nick Hovan ‘91, and Julie Stengle led the mission group. They were accompanied by thirty students; fathers David Drees ‘78, Joseph Ryan, and Doug Lyons; and one relative. More information about the mission trip, as well as pictures and videos, are posted on their blog, cchnicatrip2012.blogspot.com.

BISHOP FOYS SCHOLARSHIP ESTABLISHED

WYOMING TRIP: A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE

Bishop Foys celebrates the Eucharist with students at the opening school year Mass.

A

t the opening school year Mass on Friday, August 24, Principal Bob Rowe announced the establishment of the Bishop Roger J. Foys Scholarship Fund. In July, Bishop Foys celebrated the 10th anniversary of his installation as Bishop of the Diocese of Covington. The creation of the scholarship was in honor of this special occasion, as well as his longtime commitment to Catholic education.

To further commemorate the occasion of the Bishop’s anniversary, members of the Student Senate presented him with a granite marker that was later installed near the Grotto of the Blessed Mother on campus.

Bishop Foys, clearly emotional at the announcement, expressed his gratitude to those present. He also acknowledged the strong commitment to Catholic education in Northern Kentucky and reminded The scholarship was funded through students of the sacrifice their parents both student donations and the make to give them the opportunity school’s endowment fund. Proceeds to attend Covington Catholic. As from the fund will be used to assist the Bishop concluded his remarks, students who want a Covington he made a special request of the Catholic education but need help students.

ince 2005, over 200 students between their sophomore and junior years have had the opportunity to attend a weeklong retreat experience in the state of Wyoming. For those who need financial assistance to go, an anonymous alumni donor has been there to help. What follows is a note sent by one of the students to thank the donor for the opportunity. There is no better way to explain the impact of Wyoming than through the words in this note. Dear Sir, I cannot possibly thank you enough for contributing to one of the most memorable and life-changing experiences of my life. Without your help, it would not have been possible for me to attend such a wonderful retreat. When I had first heard of the Wyoming Retreat, I thought I had no chance of being able to go due to financial issues, but then an upperclassman informed me that there was an anonymous donor who helped make it possible for anyone to have this amazing experience. If only you had been able to see the joy and enthusiasm not only on my face, but on the faces of everyone who attended, you would understand. I see now what benefits the retreat had and the impact it had on my faith. I found out that discovering God is like climbing a mountain. We all have our struggles, but when we overcome them, we feel more than just simple satisfaction, we are overjoyed. All of this was made possible by you, and I am so grateful. I hope that this retreat continues for years to come so that I may be able to do the same thing for others that you have done for so many students here at Covington Catholic.

NEW ACT PREP PROGRAM INITIATED

W

hile Covington Catholic’s ACT scores are consistently higher than the Kentucky and national averages, CCH has instituted a program to further improve student performance. Beginning this fall, all juniors will participate in the Cambridge ACT prep program. Students take a pre-assessment to identify strengths and areas that need attention, then throughout the school year, they will work both independently and within

their classes on areas that need improvement. Students take a final ACT near the end of the year to assess their progress on this allimportant component of college admission. An additional element of the program is Application Preparation. This will help students better complete their college applications in order to maximize their chances for admission to their first-choice schools. n n n

NATIONAL MERIT SEMIFINALISTS Jonathan Wessels and Tanner Fangman were recognized by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation as Semifinalists. Last spring, roughly 1.5 million juniors across the country took the PSAT/NMSQT. Of those juniors, only 16,000 or 1% were named National Merit Semifinalists. Joseph Kendall and William Nutter were named Commended Students. These designations are the result of scores achieved on the PSAT/NMSQT. Jonathan Wessels and Tanner Fangman

LEAVING A LEGACY

ave you ever opened a piece of mail and found an unexpected check or had the excitement of walking down a road and finding a $20 bill at your feet? I experienced this feeling on February 22, 2012. I had the pleasure of opening a letter that stated Covington Catholic High School was one of the Catholic institutions named as a beneficiary under the Last Will and Testament of William M. Hoppenjans. Bill, or Hop, was number two in his graduating class of 1966, the salutatorian, and recipient of the Principal Award. I found a copy of Bill’s graduation speech in the 1966 yearbook. In the speech, he quoted, “No man is an island; no man stands alone. Each man’s joy is joy to me; each man’s grief is my own.” Truly, Bill lived by these words.

This unexpected gift allowed the administration to reflect on what the school really needed that the current budget did not include. The answer came quickly – the purchase of three lab tables for the Biology, Physics, and Chemistry rooms that had to be eliminated from the budget when the new school was built. Covington Catholic was blessed by Bill Hoppenjans’ generosity and passion as we have been by so many others. Please consider leaving a legacy gift in your will through annuities or trusts. This is a great way to insure Covington Catholic High School remains an educational leader in the community for many years to come, and always seek the advice of your attorney and/or financial advisor regarding bequests and planned giving.

REUNION UPDATES CLASS OF 1962: On September 21 and 22, 45 members from the Class of 1962, our newest Golden Colonels, gathered to relive timeworn memories, renew old friendships, and catch up on the last fifty years. The weekend events began with a golf outing and stag on Friday night followed by an alumni and spouse dinner with music at Griffin Centre Alumni Hall on Saturday.

CLASS OF 1967: 33 members of the Class of ‘67 got together for their 45th reunion on Saturday, September 29. Some arrived early to watch as CovCath beat Pendleton County 70-0. Following the game, members met in Alumni Hall and caught up with friends they hadn’t seen, in some cases, since 1967. Good memories of time spent at CovCath were shared, especially the heartbreaking loss to Earlington in the state basketball finals, and the rousing success of the class play, West Side Story. We toured the ‘new’ school and Alumni Center. Everyone agreed the facilities are outstanding!

CLASS OF 1977: The Class of 1977 gathered on September 8 for Reunion Weekend festivities and the football game against Boone County. Following the game, the group gathered in Alumni Hall. Pictured: Jeff Wigger, Mark Linz, Bill Roth, Kelly Reed, Kevin Flynn, and Mark Bezold

CLASS OF 1987: 24 played golf at Devou on Friday, September 7. Even though we had a few first timers, everyone enjoyed the day. Ron Rohling suffered the only minor injury after being struck by an errant shot from the Maschinot group. (No one claimed responsibility.) Ron shook it off and finished the round in true Colonel fashion. On Saturday, we met the alumni of Notre Dame Academy for a dinner dance. The hall was decorated in pure 80s fashion. Craig Cleveland and Brian Northcutt were dressed in theme which reminded us why we no longer dress like that! We finally ended the evening at the Saddle Club. After all was said and done, everyone went home having rekindled a little bit of “the spirit that will not die.”

FROM THE ALUMNI DIRECTOR

RICHARD DICKMANN ‘80 As we embark on another school year full of activity, I have reflected on the progress of the Alumni Association over the past year. It is wonderful to see the way Colonel Alumni have begun to embrace the idea of strengthening our alumni foundation. From emails received to those who stop by, your words of encouragement have been inspirational. As I have mentioned in previous Journal articles, the brotherhood that we are part of as alumni of Covington Catholic is very strong. Our pride runs deep and our ability to be there for one another is unprecedented. To bring out the best in our efforts to support our alma mater, I have put together a schedule of events and activities to further bring us together. This schedule will take better shape this year and will become standard in the years to come. My approach to the position of Alumni Director has also encompassed a mission to include everyone in the Colonel Community. What does this mean? In building awareness, I have been approached by alumni and parents about the inclusion of those who are not alumni but feel strongly about CCH. To honor that, some of our events will be geared to the entire group of friends, alumni, students, and faculty of Covington Catholic. By the time you receive this publication, the Covington Catholic Community will have had its first organized Spirit Week. The goal was to bring out the SPIRIT THAT WILL NOT DIE in all of us. On the kick-off date of September 23, we had our first ever Blue Out at Sunday Mass. Hopefully you were among the sea of blue at your parish. The final day of Spirit Week was the Homecoming game which was to be just that, a homecoming for all to the campus of CCH. The future structure of this alumni movement will be through committee involvement. In my last article, I asked for alumni to come forward to assist me with this mission. It is time now to create an active board of directors for the Alumni Association. If you have a desire to give your time in this way, please email me at [email protected]. Thank you for all of your support thus far. There has been great progress, but the best is yet to come!
