notre dame preparatory high school • annual report 2008-09 3

Dear Friends,

Notre Dame has recently completed another very successful school year. Over the first seven years of existence, we have grown from a fledgling institution of 220 students to a thriving and vibrant school that enrolls 925 students. During this time, we have remained steadfast to our mission of providing a Catholic college preparatory program that excels academically, athletically, and spiritually. This past year Notre Dame remained true to this tradition of excellence.

Last spring we sent all of our graduating seniors on to higher education. Ninety-six percent went on to four-year colleges, while four percent opted for community colleges. These students were accepted to some of the finest colleges and universities across the nation and earned more than $4.8 million in scholarship aid. Athletically, we won seven team state championships, which brings our total to 19 over the past four years. Finally, and most importantly, our students performed more than 36,000 hours in the community benefitting those less fortunate.

All of the above was accomplished while still remaining true to those “Expected Schoolwide Learning Results” (ESLRs) that we hold most dear for all of our graduates:

• Reverence for our Creator, while demonstrating a Christian moral awareness and approach to the community based on the message of Jesus Christ.

• Respect for self, others, property, and the environment within which we live.

• Responsibility that goes with being a citizen. Accepting the responsibilities that come with global awareness as well as being a student at Notre Dame. Possessing an awareness and a willingness to respond to the issues and needs of local and global communities while working to master subject knowledge, using critical thinking skills, technology, and communication skills.

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 school year and with the help of our parents, friends, and benefactors we will continue to provide an outstanding educational experience for the youth of the Valley of the Sun in the future.

Sincerely,

David D. GonsalvesPrincipal


Dear Friends and Families of Notre Dame Preparatory,

Notre Dame Preparatory is a community of which we can all be very proud. In the seven years that the school has been open, its growth and success are nothing short of phenomenal.

The achievements of our students are tremendous in every area, including academic, athletic, and community involvement. The vast majority of our students continue their education after leaving Notre Dame Preparatory with most of them going on to four-year colleges and universities. They have been accepted at the most prestigious institutions in the country, including Ivy League schools and military academies.

Our student-athletes are among the very best in high school sports anywhere in the country. They excel not only on the playing field, but in the classroom as well. Many have been awarded athletic scholarships and have become success stories at colleges and universities around the country.

The development of our students’ creative talents is another important aspect of the Notre Dame experience. A group of parents and teachers who are dedicated to supporting the school’s visual and performing arts programs founded the NDP Arts Angels in 2007. Artistic highlights of the 2008-2009 school year included an exhibition of NDP students’ art at the Phoenix Art Museum, 15 awards for The Seraphim school newspaper from the Arizona Interscholastic Press Association, the growth of Perspective literary magazine, and numerous performances by the NDP drama department, show choir, and jazz band, which qualified for its first state competition

Notre Dame Preparatory continues its strong commitment to community involvement as evidenced by our rigorous community service standards required of each student. Notre Dame students have donated thousands of hours over the past year serving the poor, the forgotten, and those in need.

During the 2008-2009 school year, we have made strides in improving our communication with Notre Dame Preparatory families and friends. Thanks to advisory board member Jim Zeumer we have a new and improved Web site. Jim, along with his committee, worked very hard on this project to bring you the most up-to-date information about Notre Dame Preparatory by simply clicking on our Web site. Notre Dame Preparatory also continues to e-mail each family the “Mind, Body and Soul” newsletter to keep you updated with school activities and news.

Our faculty continues to grow as our student body increases. Notre Dame Preparatory is committed to recruiting and retaining a top quality teaching staff. The teachers are held to high standards, and as evidenced by the success of our students, they are excelling at their jobs.

The Notre Dame Preparatory School Advisory Board is committed to its directive to help make the school the very best experience it can be for Notre Dame families. Under the direction of Principal David Gonsalves, the school, in a very short amount of time, has become a remarkable success story.

We continue our journey into the future with even more exciting projects to come. Much work remains to be done. But at the end of each school day Notre Dame Preparatory’s goal can be summed up very simply. We are here to teach our students Reverence, Respect, and Responsibility.

Sincerely,

Beth McDonaldPresident, Notre Dame Preparatory School Board


A Legacy of Success...At the core of

our success is the

unwavering belief that

an excellent education

is built on a foundation

of faith and that our

students deserve the

spiritual, academic,

moral, and social

support required to

prepare them for life.

We continued to prove in our seventh year that our students courageously accept the challenge to live a successful and exemplary life by striving to attain their personal best. Our students have achieved the highest honors as evidenced by NDP’s two 2009 National Merit Scholars in addition to those who have earned recognition as National Merit finalists, semifinalists, and commended scholars and National Hispanic Scholars. Ten outstanding NDP students were selected to attend the school’s annual trip to the New York Stock Exchange, which included a in-depth tour of the trad-ing floor conducted by NYSE analysts. NDP students have achieved highest honors in the national Word Masters Challenge and at the American Mathematics Contest. Additionally, NDP students have been selected on the basis of their academic records and high moral character to participate in the Phoenix Youth and Education Commission, Valley Teen Leadership, Scottsdale Mayor’s Youth Council, and the National Forum of Defense, Intelligence, Diplomacy, and Medicine.

The Class of 2009 was awarded more than $4.4 million in college scholarships from prestigious universi-ties nationwide. These students were accepted at the finest universities, including Stanford University, Brown University, Northwestern University, University of Southern California, and the University of Notre Dame. An outstanding combination of academic achievement and athleticism led to 32 members of the Class of 2009 being awarded college athletic scholarships.

Notre Dame’s athletic programs continued to flourish with the many impressive accomplishments of our teams and individual athletes under the direction of the school’s staff of dedicated coaches. The outstanding 2008-2009 sports season mirrored the previous year with talented NDP athletes earning another eight team state championship titles. The phenomenal NDP football team capped an unde-feated season by winning its second consecutive state championship. The boy’s golf team won its third state victory in five years and the girls’ golf team won its second consecutive state 4A-II title. The girls’ tennis team took the state title for the third year in a row and the girls’ soccer team captured their first state championship. The boys’ track and field team took home the 2009 state trophy and the NDP pom and cheer teams dominated at state with a joint Spiritline championship award and a first place award for the five-girl stunt team. Individual state titles were won by Patrick Foley and Blair Tushaus (track and field), Jackie Chang (girls’ tennis and golf), Nick Losole (golf), and Alexis Daswick (swimming).

By providing a strong foundation designed to support spiritual, academic, moral, social, and athletic development, Notre Dame prepares its students to meet challenges and for a lifetime of success.

Dear Friends and Families of Notre Dame Preparatory,

I am pleased to report on behalf of the Finance Committee of Notre Dame Preparatory that despite these challenging economic times, the school continues to remain in a sound and stable financial operating condition.

For the 2008-2009 school year, Notre Dame continues to sustain itself in meeting the ongoing expenditures required for operating the school, supporting extracurricular activities, and servic-ing our financial obligations by servicing our debt. This included capital expenditures in excess of $400,000 as we continue to invest in our campus for items such as upgrading our fiber backbone wiring throughout campus, additional gym lockers, extension of our multipurpose sports field, six-teen additional SmartBoards and projectors for our classrooms, and memory upgrades to more than 350 computer workstations. The school also leased four mobile classrooms to meet the needs of our growing enrollment. Additionally, NDP’s five-year financial plan was updated to reflect current financial strategies and results. The Finance Committee continues to monitor it on a regular basis to ensure the school can meet its ongoing financial obligations while providing continuing investment in the school’s infrastructure, technology, teacher resources, and student extracurricular activities.

The past year’s achievements were the results of the combined efforts and work of many people. The tremendous support of our parents and other benefactors continued throughout this past year. The well-attended Taste of Excellence Gala and raffle kicked off the school year and contributed more than $20,000 to the school. The Booster Club’s Seventh Annual Golf Tournament and other fund-raising activities raised more than $75,000 to the school. The Seventh Annual Mother’s Guild Casino Night and Auction was a well-supported event and raised almost $80,000. This year’s Fashion Show, highlighting the Class of 2009, was a great event once again. The increasing needs of our growing student body continue to be supported by these various fund-raising activities.

NDP’s Administration has been proactive in addressing and planning for the current difficult economic environment. All spending will continue to be closely monitored while not sacrificing the education and extracurricular activities of our students. NDP increased the amount of in-school scholarships for families with financial need this past year and again in the current school year. The Administration continues to pursue other avenues of financial aid and is committed to doing every-thing it can to work with families encountering financial difficulties.

On a personal note, I would like to first thank John E. McMahon for all his contributions to NDP over the years. John served as chairman of the Finance Committee and member of the School Advisory Board since inception. I would also like to thank D.J. Cole and Bill O’Connor for serving on the Finance Committee this past year and look forward to working with the committee in the upcoming school year. Special thanks goes to Paul Rubsam for his continued leadership and diligence as NDP’s director of finance. We are fortunate to have talented and dedicated professionals guide us through these challenging financial times.

Sincerely,

Peter MorrowChairman, Finance Committee


A Legacy of Faith...

Sister Yolanda Mendoza Director of

Campus Ministry

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 2008 volun-teered a total of more than 34,692 service hours during their four years at Notre Dame.

The entire NDP student body contributes thousands of Christian service hours each year to their churches and to organizations, including Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics, and the Society of St. Vincent de Paul, to name but a few. This year, Theology Department Chair Barbara Stanley and I were privileged to take 18 NDP students to Tucson during spring break for the school’s annual mission trip. Students spent several days making improvements to Capilla San Antonio, an abandoned chapel in desperate need of painting, tiling, and rebuilding. Our students learned a great deal about the goodness of people and they can all be very proud of the time and effort they put into this project.

In 2008, Fr. Michael Goodyear was assigned as chaplain to NDP by Bishop Olmsted and we enjoyed his presence on campus three days a week. Having a priest on campus is a blessing for our school as it is a wonderful opportunity for all to grow in their faith. This school year also marked the debut of the Senior Legacy Club, whose purpose is to establish a legacy of service and commitment to those most in need. The new club developed fund raising activities and made several trips to Mexico where they worked to build new homes for the needy and distrib-uted clothing in the barrios.

2009 AUCTION

Nearly 400 elegantly-gowned ladies and tuxedo clad gentlemen gathered on the Notre Dame Prep campus on March 21 for the Mothers’ Guild annual auction. The event’s new Casino Royale theme raised $80,000 for the school’s operating fund. The lively evening of wagering and dining also included silent and live auctions, raffles, contests, and a sultry production of “Fever” by the fedora-clad NDP Show Choir. Event Chair Amy Doyle, Vice-Chair Adrienne Miller, and Mothers’ Guild President Lora Drummond received warm praise for their leadership from Casino Royale committee members Sheri Dogra, Karen Ely, Charmaine Berggreen, Kandace Rising, Mary But’ierries, Debbie Hooker, Lyric Naquin, Lauren Haro, Cathie Cuda, Janie White, Mary Hartman,

Pam Lannan, Carolyn Rock, and Carol Rinella. Notre Dame Preparatory acknowledges with deep gratitude the Sponsors and Donors of Casino Royale who supported the school.

A Legacy of Strength...The 2008-2009 school year was full of accomplishments for the NDP Booster Club and the school’s talented athletes. Notre Dame solidified its well-earned reputation as a top tier high school that attracts students who strive to excel both on and off the playing field. The trophies and accolades spanned the entire school year as the Saints won team championships in Football, Girls’ and Boys’ Golf, Stunt Cheer, Pom/Cheer Spiritline, Girls’ Tennis, Girls’ Soccer, and Boys’ Track and Field. The Booster Club is proud to have supported these outstanding teams, their coaches, and our superb athletic director, Mike Mahon. In just a few short years, NDP has become a powerhouse to be reckoned with in the Arizona Interscholastic Association’s 4A Division II. The club is deeply grateful for its hardworking members who provide impor-tant social and financial support to Notre Dame’s athletic programs.

2008-2009 BOOSTER CLUB HIGHLIGHTS

• Membership in the club rose to 376 members, including 83 Annual and 293 Lifetime members. • The club funded the expansion of the school’s multi-use athletic fields so that more teams could practice and compete on campus. • The success of the annual Fall Sports Festival spurred the club to add two more festivals celebrating the school’s winter and spring sports programs. • The club organized the first “Night of Champions” to honor the school’s 26 Scholar-Athletes, two Academic All-Americans, individual and team state champions, and athletes going on to play college sports.• The club’s popular annual golf tournament drew nearly 200 golfers for a day of fun and fund-raising. • NFL star Seth Joyner and sports legend Joe Garagiola were two of the impressive guest speakers the club brought to NDP.

2009 Gala offered “A taste of Excellence”An autumn gala celebrating NDP’s academic, artistic, athletic, and community achieve-ments drew more than 800 guests to campus on October 4 for an evening of fine cuisine and friendship.

A high point of the evening was the drawing for the grand raffle prize of a 2009 C300 Mercedes-Benz sports sedan from Schumacher European Ltd. of Scottsdale, provided by Paradise Valley residents Mark and Amanda Bosco. The ecstatic winners were NDP parents Glenn and Tracy Hughes.

Culinary co-chairs Brandon Maxwell and Michael DeMaria once again assembled an impres-sive roster of Valley chefs who prepared tastings of their specialties for guests to enjoy.

CTODP Offers State Tax Credit and Provides Financial Aid to NDP StudentsThe Development Departments extends its sincere appreciation to everyone who contributed to the Catholic Tuition Organization of the Diocese of Phoenix (CTODP) and enjoyed a state income tax credit while funding scholarships at NDP. Your gener-osity provides valuable financial assistance to deserving students at Notre Dame.

As a rapidly growing school with a diverse student body, scholarship aid continues to be one of our greatest needs. The 2008-09 CTODP campaign raised $328,000 in scholarship funds (a 7% decrease from the previous year). More than ever before, the need for financial aid at NDP is still greater than the available resources.

In the coming school year, you will have several opportunities to contribute to CTODP. Please open your hearts and minds to this important need by taking advan-tage of CTODP’s dollar-for-dollar tax credit of up to $1,000. Your gift will make a difference in the life of a Notre Dame student.

NDP thanks all of the dedicated parent volunteers who gave so generously of their time to make the 2008-09 CTODP campaign an unqualified success, especially Susan Casaceli, Holly Cooper, Nancy Dougherty, Donald Evans, Sue Fischer, Laura Hicks, Marci Matt, Margaret Shoemaker, Catherine Wetter, Clara Ponce, Carol Ann Wright, Mareencita and Javier Ramos, Amy Rivers, Annie Stempta, Margaret Nawrocki, and Nada Zlaket.

NDP Arts AngelsThe NDP Arts Angels success-fully achieved its mission to sup-port and develop opportunities for NDP fine arts

students. A highlight of the year was a monthlong showcase in April at the Phoenix Art Museum where Notre Dame students had the opportunity to exhibit their paintings, drawings and photography. The Notre Dame Arts Angels is a new support group comprised of parent volunteers who take an active role in promoting the arts at NDP. Members of the Arts Angels bolster the school’s art, photography, ceramics, music, dance, and theater programs by offering their time and experience to support the various artistic needs and aspira-tions of our fine arts students and their instructors.


Notre Dame Preparatory extends its sincere thanks to those who designated NDP as the recipient of CTODP funds so that deserving students at our school could receive financial aid.

A Legacy of Support...Dear Friends of Notre Dame Preparatory,

On behalf of the students and faculty, I want to thank you for your generous support in the 2008-2009 school year. It was the most challenging of economic times, and even through last year’s downturn, Notre Dame families and friends rallied to support the school. Your support as volunteers and donors are major reasons why Notre Dame has become one of the most outstanding prep schools in the Valley in a record amount of time.

Certainly, the volunteer leaders of these important fund-raising efforts can be tremendously proud of their results. NDP is blessed with outstanding parents, friends, and a growing number of alumni who work thoughtfully and tirelessly work to make our philanthropic successes pos-sible. Mark and Amanda Boscos’ donation of the Mercedes-Benz for the Gala was a wonderful example of parents’ generosity in action. I would like to personally thank Lora Drummond and George Krueger for their leadership of the Mothers’ Guild and Booster Club; Sally Cashman, Amy Doyle, Aimee Smith, and Tony Montgomery for chairing the “Taste of Excellence“ Gala, “Mardi Gras” Auction, “On Cloud Nine” Fashion Show, and the Booster Club Golf Tournament. They faced adverse circumstances with creative strategies and inspirational leadership.

In 2008-2009, Notre Dame’s Annual Fund came to the forefront. An annual fund is the life-blood of any school, and its importance was emphasized through the class competition. It was a tightly contested race that concluded with the freshmen and senior classes winning. Chairs Chris Mignella and Brad Zellers led the charge with co-chairs Judy and Bryon Carney and Laura and Randy Shell (freshmen), Adrienne and Larry Miller (sophomores), Lisa and Phil Gallagher (juniors), and Natalie and Tim Hyland and Martha and Bob Poage (seniors). The result of this organized effort was a 262% increase over the previous year with a grand total of $213,214 raised. This was an important milestone in Notre Dame’s history. Without their leadership, this giving record could never have been achieved.

Notre Dame was fortunate that support for the Catholic Tuition Organization was fairly steady. The school was able to provide $330,000 in funds for financial aid for our students through the state tax-credit organization. This is a critical factor in maintaining enrollment at NDP.

Please accept my personal thanks, as well, to each one of you who made a gift to NDP this year for your generosity and your loyalty. I know that you have many worthy causes and interests that merit your financial support, and your commitment to Notre Dame is inspiring. Rest assured that your gifts to this new school have a powerful impact. They are, in fact, essential, and they are deeply appreciated.

Best wishes to all of you for a successful year ahead, and thank you again for the success of the past year.

Sincerely,

Carolyn RockDirector of Development

*Repeat Donors to the NDP Annual Fund

At the core of Notre Dame’s success is the unwavering belief that an excellent education includes the spiritual, academic, moral, and social support required to prepare our students for life. Notre Dame Preparatory has graduated to date a total of 773 students who now attend pres-tigious universities and colleges across the United States. As a result of their dedicated effort and an excellent college preparatory curriculum, many of these students are enjoying the benefits of the more than $14 million in scholarship offers that have been awarded to NDP’s first five graduating classes. Notre Dame alumni are maintaining their ties to the school through a variety of activities, including the Alumni Panel Discussion for the current senior class, the annual Homecoming Rally and football game, and the Alumni Christmas Party.

The Alumni Representatives who give generously of their time to spearhead these events:

CLASS OF 2009: Kali Bills, Kristina Stojak, Eric TenEyckCLASS OF 2008: James Ardell and Rachel HerediaCLASS OF 2008: Chelsea Bergner and Roberto “Bobby” RuizCLASS OF 2007: Lauren Streiff and Joe AnglimCLASS OF 2006: Nichole Cuda, Fred Zlaket, and Natasha VakiliCLASS OF 2005: Stephanie D’Amato and Anthony Wenzler

The Endowment—$125,000The Endowment provides additional sources of income to ensure the longevity of the school. These funds are held and invested to generate a reliable source of income for Notre Dame. Gifts to the Endowment are long-term investments in the school’s future. The Finance Committee’s goal for the Endowment is to increase the corpus and to use a portion of its earnings for financial aid for deserving students. Financial aid is one of the school’s greatest needs after payment of the construction loan.
