2009-2010 ANNUAL REPORT PROOF
SPRING 2010 Serving the WORLD By the time a class graduates from St. Francis High School, they will have given over 15,000 hours of service to the world. As we celebrate the Easter Season and the beginning of spring, our hearts and minds are filled with the smells, sounds and colors of new life. Fresh air fills our lungs as we venture outside more often and for longer periods of time. The chirping of birds and honking of geese return to campus. Flowers bloom and new leaves bud as the temperatures become more hospitable to gardens and trees. As educators, the faculty and staff have the opportunity to assist in the transformation of the lives of our students in so many ways during this springtime of human development that we call adolescence. One of the aspects of adolescent development that resonates with the optimism of spring and the Paschal Mystery is the enthusiasm with which young people embrace opportunities for service. Throughout the school year, we have been able to celebrate our students many achievements especially, in the area of service. For the third consecutive year, two St. Francis Seniors were named to the Daily Herald’s Top Ten DuPage County Leadership Team. This year’s Spartans receiving that honor were Meagan Gitchell '10 and Carolyn Griffith '10. Other students that have stood out for their service to the community include: Shannon Koester '10 who was honored at the Martin Luther King celebration for her service to the community, Nikki Zayner '10 who received the DAR Good Citizenship award, Jack Spangler '10 who organized the Jimmy V Night with the boys basketball team, Jaime Pigott '10 did volunteer work in Uganda, Sarah Francesconi '10 worked in Haiti last summer and Tom Carani '10 brought the Harmony, Hope and Healing organization to St. Francis this winter. Each summer Pastoral Ministry organizes work mission trips with students and parents to places like Minnesota, Oklahoma and Tennessee. Over spring break a group will travel to Belize, Central America and in the summer another group will go to St. Louis, MO. Still, this is just “the tip of the iceberg” of the solidarity that manifests itself through our student body. By the time a class graduates from St. Francis High School, they will have given over 15,000 hours of service to the world. On Saturday April 10th, the SFHS community will host a Hope for Haiti festival to raise money to send 100,000 meals to Haiti through the Feed My Starving Children organization. In May, students, faculty and staff will package the meals at school for shipping. I thank you for your support of our mission! This year we have enjoyed the benefits of the commitment of so many who have helped us accomplish our financial goals. We have had great responses to the Annual Fund, Ensuring Our Future Auction Event and the Capital Campaign! Please join us as we break ground on June 1st to begin the construction of the West Wing that will house the Mary J. Feltes Science Suite and the Learning Center. Make God continue to bless us in our endeavors, Thomas V. Bednar President 02 Visit on-line: www.sfhsnet.org Focus on groundbreaking Join us, all are invited! St. Francis High School will Break Ground for the New Science Suite and Learning Resource Center TUESDAY, JUNE 1, 2010 at 11:00 a.m. The success of the Building Our Future and Completing the Dream capital campaigns is a testament to the St. Francis High School community and the strength of their desire to build a new Science Suite and Learning Resource Center. On June 1, 2010, St. Francis will break ground and celebrate the much anticipated construction of this new facility for generations of Spartans to enjoy. The groundbreaking service will begin with a prayer service emceed by Tom Bednar and officiated by the Most Reverend Bishop J. Peter Sartain. The ceremony will commence outside the current main entrance to the school where the new facility will be built. Key points in the ceremony include remarks by Michael Abernathy, chair of the steering committee and a blessing of the ground, architects and contractors. Several “shovel in the ground” pictures will be taken with local dignitaries and the top investors in the campaign. One of the ceremonial shovels of dirt will be moved by members of the Feltes family in honor of Mary J. Feltes. The Science Suite will be named in Mary’s honor. At the conclusion of the outdoor ceremony, participants will be invited indoors to the Spyglass Gymnasium to enjoy light refreshments, hosted by the St. Francis Parents' Organization. Visit on-line: www.sfhsnet.org From the Feltes Family: Our mother always had faith in her students, in teaching, and in St. Francis. We believe it altogether fitting that the faculty and staff of St. Francis recognize her 24 years of service at St. Francis, and a lifetime of sharing her love for the facts, and the fun, of biology, anatomy, animals and the environment. The naming of the science wing of which she long promoted and helped design will serve as a durable honor to our Mom, and we know in our hearts that she would be "tickled pink". We would like to thank Tom, Raeann, Sue, the faculty and greater Spartan community for this generous tribute. 03 Focus on C AT H O L I C S C H O O L S Blessing of Teachers for Milestone Service As a Catholic learning community, we are blessed with so many adults who dedicate themselves to serving others through their commitment, leadership and actions.

To you both, for choosing to make St. Francis your home and making it the special place it is, we thank you and we congratulate you. Excerpt from school parent, Mrs. Olofson’s, “We Thank You” poem to express our gratitude to Ms. Sullivan and Mr. Harper.

Currently, the Alumni Association provides six $2,200.00 renewable scholarships to children (grandchildren) of alumni attending St. Francis High School. The scholarship reception provided the recipients and board members the opportunity to meet one another and spend a morning getting to know one another better.

Events, organized by various school groups, ranged from a PADS toiletry collection to Quarter Wars to the Spartan Olympics. Students, faculty and staff focused on service for most of the week. Many organizations benefited from St. Francis’ service. PADS received travel-sized toiletries from the school’s collection competition and Haitian relief efforts benefited as a result of several other service activities including the Quarter Wars and a bake sale. Hospice received blankets that St. Francis’ student ministry team and others helped to create. The Jimmy V Foundation received funds from the basketball team’s fundraiser and the elderly received valentines the St. Francis students made along with their friends at Marian Park. Visit on-line: www.sfhsnet.org 05 Focus on the annual auction Our $146,000.00 RAISED! We asked you to Ensure Our Future and ensure it you did. We are happy to report a profit to the school of $146,000 and counting. Sure this event was about closing the gap between tuition and operating expenses, but it was about so much more. It was about community, building new relationships or rekindling old, being in an environment that supports our children on a daily basis and confirming our decision to provide our children with a Catholic education. We cannot express the gratitude we feel to all those who helped to make this event a success. Whether you were a volunteer, a sponsor, an advertiser, donated an item or cash or made a purchase at the event, you have our heartfelt appreciation. Thank You to co-chairs of the Auction event, Mary Murphy and Rita Lusk!

The cost of these programs is nearly $570,000.00. Thanks to the generosity of those that have contributed to this year’s Annual Fund we have: 1: 2: Grown our endowment by $28,000 through increased giving and new gifts Increased the participation of contributors by 2% over last year Looking to our future the most significant need from our Annual Fund is tuition assistance.

Bill will complete five century bike rides – 100 miles for each decade of his life - in five months at 50 years of age to benefit Ronald McDonald House Charities of Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana. For those not familiar with the physical requirements to accomplish this goal, assimilate it to running marathons. The goal of Bill’s efforts is to raise a minimum of $50,000 to be donated directly to Ronald McDonald House Charities. This amount will sponsor the construction of one of 86 guest rooms. Never setting sights low, the sponsorship of an entire floor is $500,000. Gifts can be made directly to Ronald McDonald House Charities to support this effort at http://www. firstgiving.com/billmelka. Professionally, Bill has been a trusted advisor to high net worth individuals and families with their wealth management needs for 25 years. Bill is a native Chicagoan and lives with his wife, Rochel, and their children in the western suburbs of Chicago.
