From The Principal’s Office
Dear Friends,
We continue to be Wildcat proud as we celebrate
the 120th school year of St. Aloysius Academy! It is the
legacy of St. Aloysius Academy that inspires our
students to learn how to lead and serve as young men
for others. MasterCard™ tells us that there are some
things money can’t buy. How well we know it at
St. Aloysius Academy!
The legacy of our Academy is never thought about as a completely
accomplished fact of history; it is a dynamic reality that is being created
each day by our current students from the Clockhouse to the Class of 2016,
faculty and parents and is enhanced greatly by your ongoing interest and
your support through your prayers and generosity of time, talent and
treasure. Your personal and intentional contributions help to shape the
present and to fashion a future for the Academy. We are forever grateful to
you!
It’s a great year to be a Wildcat!
With gratitude and love, asking God to bless you and yours, sincerely,
Sister Stephen Anne Roderiguez IHM
Principal
Our Jedi Masters are ready to instruct the young Padawans of St.
Aloysius Academy!

21st Century Learning at St. Aloysius Academy
Thirteen of our 8th graders stayed after school, met at lunch recess or before school to create a “Future City” they named
Evermore to compete with other schools and present before over 200 local engineers. The naming of this futuristic city
was rather symbolic for these students as they had memorized and performed Edgar Allan Poe’s poem, The Raven, in
ELA class. The students divided and conquered in applying
math and science concepts to real-world issues, in particular,
trash management. Over a 4-month period, they developed
writing, public speaking, problem solving and time
management skills. They researched solutions to engineering
challenges, learning how communities function as they
became better citizens themselves. Most importantly, they
developed strong teamwork and project management skills.
They prepared a project plan, designed a city using Sim
CityTM computer software, wrote solutions to an engineering
problem, built a tabletop-scale model of their solution with
recycled materials and presented their ideas via a skit before
judges at the Regional Competition. Their efforts were
acknowledged by the Pharmaceutical Engineers and earned
them a place at the table at Lincoln Financial Field with
another opportunity to present their ideas to multi-faceted engineers. Congratulations to Liam Dodds, Toby Ekhator,
Kevin Husar, Michael Kaiser, Jason Kennedy, Joe Lilley, Drew Morris, Michael Paolino, Niall Pegues, Jake Phelan, Alec
Steltz, Sam Sullivan and Chris Yangello.
Our 2nd graders were also performers in a skit, but of a very different
nature. As this is the year they make First Penance, they have learned
about the power of forgiveness in the story of the Prodigal Son. They
acted the story out and pictures were dropped into a presentation shared
with their parents at a meeting about their sons receiving First Penance in
March. This picture represents the joy of everyone when the Prodigal Son
returns home. The boys look forward to making their First Holy
Communion in the fall as 3rd graders.
5th through 8th graders are involved in Junior Varsity and Varsity
sports from soccer and football in the fall, basketball in the winter
and baseball, lacrosse, tennis and track in the spring. We have many
after school offerings for our younger students throughout the year
– flag football, soccer, basketball, karate, pottery, dodge ball, chess,
and crafts clubs. Some of our students who participate in the after
school karate club competed in the 2016 Ko Dan Ja Invitational
Tournament hosted by the AmKor Karate Institutes of Upper
Darby. Joe Backe, Bradley Hart, Jason Jeffries, Michael Paolucci
and Shawn Rinnier all placed first in their respective divisions and
Jake Wilson placed third. Congratulations to our students and to
their instructor, Master Sam Wallace on a great showing. All students, from Montessori to 3rd grade, can sign up to
participate in this great activity.

Ash Wednesday began with a prayer service and the distribution of ashes. An integral part of Ash Wednesday is the Paying
It Forward projects at each grade level. Kindergarteners wrapped knives, forks and spoons in a napkin and sent off 250 sets to
The Life Center. 8th graders collected gently used coats for One Warm Coat, collected canned food for St. Cyprian Parish and
sneakers for distribution to those in need. The Little Sisters of the Poor received mouthwash for the 100 residents collected by
5th grade. A local focus on a family at IHM St. Francis De Sales School was 5th graders’ project. They earned money doing
chores and will have a bake sale in March to help this family of 9 who emigrated from the Congo. In the spring, 7 th graders
will walk the perimeter of the Academy grounds and contribute pledged funds to the Wounded Warrior Project. 2 nd graders
colored pictures that were placed in snack bags for the homeless and also wrote
cards for the retired IHM Sisters at Camilla Hall. Sewing machines in KDH? Yes,
6th graders chose cheerful fabric and then sewed pillowcases to be given to patients at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. 3rd grade gentlemen put together
care packages for the Sisters at Camilla Hall and will be teaming up with students
at Villa Maria and spend some time with the Sisters while thanking them for their
years of service. 1st graders collected coloring books and crayons for
delivery to patients at St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children.
Congratulations to our 7th grade Science Fair Winners. In the field of chemistry,
1st place went to Timothy Sweeney for “Cookie Craze”, 2nd to Pierre Koenig for
“Into the Air and 3rd to Kevin O’Brien for “Invisible Ink”. Kieran O’Rourke took
1st place in the physics category for “Frisbee Aerodynamics”; Paul Bradley, 2nd for “Ready, Aim, Fire!” and Michael
Parisano, 3rd for “Balloon Rocket”. Students did very well in the Life Science/Biology group with Griffin Steinman earning
1st place with “Which Computer Operating System is Easier for Older Americans?”. 2 nd place went to Aidan Vickers for
“Which is the Easiest Way to Start a Rubik’s Cube?” and 3rd place went to Rayce McCool for “Do Video Game Players Have
Faster Reaction Times than Non-Video Game Players?” Sports Science was a popular field with Liam Dodds finishing 1 st in
the category for “Stride for Speed”. Nick Giangiulio’s “Wide Right – Laces In or Out?” took 2nd followed by 3rd place Joe
Massaua’s “The Pressure is On”. The students spent 2 months researching, forming hypotheses, experimenting and drawing
conclusions. The Science Fair is all about the Scientific Method. Some of our 7th graders moved on to the Delaware County
Science Fair after doing so very well at the Academy. Timothy Sweeney took 2 nd place in the Chemistry Division for his take
on the Science of Convection vs. Convention Ovens behind baking chocolate chip cookies. Griffin Steinman also took 2 nd
place in the Computer Science Division for his exploration of Windows vs. Mac platforms for older adults. Both of these
students will move on to the Delaware Valley Science Fair. Kiernan O'Rourke garnered an honorable mention in Physics for
his work with the Aerodynamics of the Frisbee.
We have mathematicians who love to compete. Our Math Counts team with
Kevin Husar, Sam Sullivan, Liam Dodds, and Ryan Welsh finished sixth in
the Delaware County Math Contest. Thanks also to Joseph Lilley and
Michael Kaiser who competed for SAA. Our students also competed in Pope
John Paul II High School Math Contest. Congratulations to Ryan Buck., Sam
Sullivan, Kevin Husar, Liam Dodds, and Ryan Welsh who took first place.
Ryan Buck tied for first place among all individual competitors. Ryan Buck,
Liam Dodds, Joseph Massaua and Sam Sullivan finished second in the group
competition. Thank you to Michael Kaiser, Joseph Lilley, Griffin Steinmetz
and Alec Steltz who also represented St. Aloysius Academy at this
competition. Other gentlemen who also work on math after school every
Friday are Leo Ansa, Ryan Buck, Toby Ekhator, Alec Steltz, Joe Massaua
and Griffin Steinman. Our 7th and 8th graders participated in a very rigorous
math contest sponsored by The Sisters Servants of the Immaculate Heart of
Mary. This prestigious competition is given to nearly 2,800 7th and 8th
graders in over 60 schools around the nation. The following students did so
well in this exam that they qualified for the finals of this contest: Ryan
Buck, Matt Carlino, Liam Dodds, Kevin Husar, Michael Kaiser, Joe Massaua and Ryan Welsh. To qualify, students had to be
among the top 100 scorers in the nation. This is a tremendous accomplishment. These students will take the final online exam
in April. 7 is the highest number of our students to qualify for the finals to date. We are very proud of these boys. Thank you
Miss Goode for your terrific coaching and dedication!

A Long Legacy
In the 120 years St. Aloysius Academy has been shaping the hearts and minds of young men, a lot of traditions have
been created. Did you know that after graduation, the students run down to the Mansion and drape their ties around the
statue of St. Aloysius Gonzaga? Or that the boys compete in their own version of March Madness know as Bucketball?
Where else would you find a basketball knock-out contest played in classrooms with Fisher Price™ basketball nets?
Every year, we have a Live Nativity before Christmas and during Lent, our Seventh grade re-enacts the Stations of the
Cross for the entire Academy. These traditions run long and deep and they are part of what makes us who we are. Back
in 2003, a new tradition was established, and it’s one that our Eighth grade students are very proud of.
When you enter Mrs. Julianne Long’s classroom, it might seem like your typical classroom. But if you look closely,
perched high above the room are crests that represent each graduating class since Mrs. Long has been teaching here.
Each shield is unique in that it represents the boys and what that year in their life meant to them. In recent years, the
boys have been adding symbols of the high schools that they plan to attend when they graduate.
We have some very artistic students here, and being an artist herself, Mrs. Long encourages her students to be
creative. This project involves the entire Eighth grade class.
Each student designs their own crest which they feel best
represents their class. After all the designs are submitted,
each student votes and the top two designers then collaborate
and create. The finished product is then shared with the entire
Academy during the Magis Ceremony at the end of the
school year, and then makes it way to Mrs. Long’s classroom
where it will be displayed with the previous graduating years.
Currently, the Class of 2016 is hard at work creating their
designs. We can’t wait to see what they come up with, adding
to this creative legacy!

2016 Father-Son Communion Breakfast
On Sunday, March 6, 2016, over 225 fathers and sons gathered for our annual Father-Son Communion breakfast. A tradition
that started back in 1989, it has become one of the can’t miss events of the school year. Each year, we are blessed to welcome
back to campus an alum to share with our guests what St. Aloysius meant to them and how being a student here helped mold
them as an individual. This year, we welcomed back Dr. Joseph Quintiliani Jr. Class of 2001. Please enjoy the speech
Dr. Quintilian gave to those in attendance.
Good morning,
My name is Joe Quintiliani, Jr. and I am a graduate of the 2001 class of
St Aloysius Academy. I am honored to be invited back to my alma mater
to speak to all of you about my experiences at St Al’s and how they helped
to shape me into the man I am today.
I came to St Al’s as a 5th grader in 1997 from a larger public
elementary school in West Chester. Needless to say, my new environment
would take some getting used to. First of all, I went from a co-ed class of
100 students to a smaller grade of only 35 boys, most of whom had known
each other since kindergarten. Also, I now had a uniform (complete with
a clip-on tie) and a homeroom teacher who was an IHM sister. As all of
the current students and alumni know, however, the biggest challenge
was taking on a much more vigorous academic workload that is the
backbone to a Wildcat education.
The Quintiliani Family l to r: Joe ’01, Kelly, Nick ’02,
Mary, Lisa and Joseph.
I remember being a new 5th grader and looking up to the 8th graders and
thinking “they guys are grown men”. In the same way, as an upper classman myself, I remember visiting our “little brothers” in
the lower school and feeling like a mature adult standing amongst the miniature desks and chairs. Reflecting back on these
memories, I started to realize that St Al’s is an important place for the formative years of an individual. It is truly a place where
boys become young men and where I developed the skills and qualities that I would rely upon in my future endeavors.
In these halls, I developed the confidence in myself, communication skills, and study habits that I would utilize in high school
at Devon Prep, college at LaSalle University, medical school at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, and currently in
my treatment of patients as a Family Medicine physician. In my very small classroom of 11 students, I received personal
attention from my teachers, which was both a blessing and a curse. At 12 years of age, one skill that I had not yet developed was
an understanding of when it was time to talk and when it was time to listen (something that my wife, Kelly, would say is still a
work in progress). In such a small setting, there was nowhere to hide when caught chatting in class, inevitably leading to a few
demerits (from Mr. Cooney) until I learned my lesson. However, having such close teacher-student relationship also ensured that
I recognized that every ounce of my potential could be realized. Nothing is more important than having confidence in yourself
and the belief that you can achieve any goal that you aspire to attain.
In addition to being an incubator for personal development, I feel that St Al’s is also the environment where I developed my
spiritual identity. I am reminded of Fr McLaughlin, who is a gentle soul and was a great inspiration to me personally. As we all
know, this is holy ground. St Katharine Drexel walked on the same fields where we had recess and participated in sports. We
were reminded of this every day during morning assembly and, at the time, probably didn’t think twice about the significance. I
recognize now, though, how unique this is and encourage the current students not to take it for granted. We should all use her
life as an inspiration for our own. St Katharine Drexel developed 50 missions for Native Americans in 16 states and started a
tradition of caring for the less fortunate that permeates the mission of St Aloysius Academy and should be continued, no matter
what area of study you hope to concentrate on.
Luckily, my ties to St Al’s did not stop after 8th grade. Both of my younger brothers are alumni as well and I returned to coach
basketball here during my high school years. In addition, I was actually married by one of my fellow graduates from the Class
of 2001, Father John Stokely. This highlights an important fact; I encourage all of you to keep your own connections with St.
Al’s and with the friends that you make here, as these are relationships that can last a lifetime.
Thank you and Go Wildcats!

Gifts for Tax Credit - It's a WIN-WIN
A gift to St. Aloysius Academy can provide your company with a substantial tax credit through the
Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) as well as the Opportunity Scholarship Tax Credit (OSTC)
programs. By making a contribution to St. Aloysius Academy's scholarship fund, your company can save
as much as 90% of the value of the gift in Commonwealth of Pennsylvania tax.
What companies are eligible?
Any C corporation or S corporation that pays the following Pennsylvania state taxes is eligible for the
EITC program:
*Corporate Net Income Tax
*Capital Stock Franchise Tax
*Bank and Trust Company Shares Tax
*Title Insurance Companies Shares Tax
*Insurance Premiums Tax
*Mutual Thrift Institution Tax
*Personal Income Tax of S corporation shareholders or Partnership Shareholders
What is the process?
Tax credits are available on a first-come, first-served basis for contributions to approved scholarship
organizations like St. Aloysius Academy.
*Applications for tax credits for program year 2016-2017 are accepted beginning July 1, 2016.
*Renewal applications for 2 year commitment donors are accepted beginning May 15, 2016.
*Tax credits are given for 75% of your business' contribution to St. Aloysius' financial aid program up
to a maximum of $750,000 annually.
* A business that agrees to make a contribution to St. Aloysius Academy for two consecutive tax years
may receive a tax credit equal to 90% of its contribution.
How are these programs different?
Donations made through the EITC support students living in low-income households with financial needs;
gifts given through the OSTC support students who live in school districts ranked in the bottom 15% of
schools in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The tax benefits of these programs are exactly the same.
How can I get my company involved?
Pennsylvania businesses can begin applying for EITC credits through DCED's electronic single application
system. DCED will no longer require applicants to mail the signed signature page.
The business application guide explains the process of applying. Tax credit applications will be processed
on a first-come, first-served basis by day submitted. All applications received on a specific day will be
processed on a random basis before moving on to the next day's applications. Applications will be approved until the amount of available tax credits is exhausted.
For a detailed look at this opportunity, the Commonwealth has provided an EITC Business Guidelines and
Application which can be found at: http://www.newpa.com/eitc

public or nonpublic school of their choice. St. Aloysius Academy is approved. Students, who live within the attendance boundaries of a low-achieving school as determined by the Pennsylvania Department of Education, are eligible
to receive a scholarship. For school year 2015-2016, their household income can be no greater than $76,350, plus
$15,2670 for each dependent member of the household. To view the current list of low-achieving schools, visit the PA
