Strategic Plan

Bosco Tech’s strength and spirit are the indelible attributes that Techmen carry with them through life; they permeate the intangible bond our alumni share, having graduated from a uniquely rigorous program, in a setting that encourages the best in each student and recognizes the divine in each heart.

The Tech’s nearly seven-decade history has proven that St. John Bosco’s vision is timeless and effective. The foundational strength derived from that legacy, and the resulting successes of untold numbers of Tech alumni, mandates us to expand our reach in order to offer the peerless experience of a Tech education to even more young men.

As a Catholic faith community, we are inclusive and welcoming. Students are encouraged to develop their faith while seeking the Lord’s presence and discovering their best selves. This is done in an environment that stresses the intrinsic value of each soul, while promoting a brotherhood based on loyalty, support and equity.

The spirit of the first Salesian oratory, which saw young people being equipped for success in life-spiritually, interpersonally, and professionally-permeates today’s campus, lessons, community outreach, and extracurricular activities. The camaraderie and connection among alumni attest to the shared experience of being prepared to make a difference.

The vision is for Bosco Tech to be recognized as the nation’s premier Catholic college preparatory high school, fully integrating engineering, science and technology across a curriculum that prepares students for a faith-filled journey of life-long learning, responsible leadership, and distinguished service. In order to do so, we are committed to:

Expanding and enhancing Tech’s academic program

Improving and renewing Tech’s facilities

Strengthening Tech’s governance and organizational capacity

Reinforcing Tech’s financial position

2021-2022 ANNUAL REPORT BOSCO TECH PAGE 3
Instead of simply looking back on the accomplishments of the past year, this annual report reflects the implementation of the vital growth planning that has transpired these past months; it is an invitation to stakeholders, offering the opportunity to understand and share the vision and to join us in the Tech’s ongoing development and goal to provide the best Catholic technology-based education in the country.

2LEADERSHIP MESSAGES

In a year when it would have been easy to simply get back to the basics, Bosco Tech has forged ahead. Using the past months as an opportunity for reflection, identifying areas for growth, and carefully preparing, we have developed compre hensive plans for the future of the school, both for the physical campus and for the direction the school will take in the coming years toward furthering recog nition as a stand-out leader for applied science education.

As we align key components leading to the school’s future growth and success, I can assure you that Bosco Tech is truly guided by faith, desire and hard work. Your commitment to the education of young people is being carefully managed and vigilantly aligned with the school’s founding mission; it is administered by a board wholeheartedly dedicated to the school’s wellbeing and lasting legacy.

The Tech community’s strength and resilience and the indomitable Salesian spirit remain our mainstay, and we appreciate the confidence you--our key stakeholders and supporters--have shown in the school’s fulfillment of its unchanging mission.

As we reflect on the notable accom plishments and pivotal events of the 2021-2022 academic year, we invite you to share our vision as we turn our sights toward the future.

I consider myself blessed to have been affiliated with a remarkable educational institution since my youth, and am now proud to work with the leadership of the school to help fulfill its unwavering vision to instruct and impart character in young people. I am continually impressed by the level of dedication shown to each student by the faculty and staff; they vigi lantly carry out St. John Bosco’s mandate to youth on a daily basis.

As Memo has mentioned, the Tech’s ethos of strength and spirit is, without a doubt, the difference maker in the school’s effectiveness and in the place it deservedly holds within the hearts of generations of Techmen.

On behalf of the Don Bosco Technical Institute Board of Trustees, I thank you for your belief in and dedication to Salesian education, and I invite you to continue to partner with us as we take the Tech into the next decade and beyond.

CURRICULUM & PROFESSIONAL ENHANCEMENT

Through decades, Bosco Tech’s unique curriculum has propelled it beyond the realm of other high schools. Continuing that momentum, the administration and board of trustees are taking steps to maintain the Tech’s pole position in U.S. secondary education through several key strategies.

“From the time a student first steps on campus until they graduate, we evaluate what is in their best interest,” said Tech Principal Jeff Krynen (Building Technology ’81). “While providing a consistently high level of engaged instruction, we regularly assess current offerings and methodology.”

CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT: A committee of instructors and deans was recently formed to evaluate course offerings, applying input from industry and higher education to ensure they remain relevant in the future. Refining coursework where needed, the balance of technology and UC a-g course work is reviewed on a regular basis. That dual curriculum balance takes into account the possibility of college co-enrollment, offered in tandem with established Advanced Placement and honors level classes.

REVAMPED COLLEGE ADVISING PROGRAM & SOFTWARE: It is crucial that the school shows a clear pathway to college for every student. In 2021, the Tech named Christine Gambill Director of College Advising. One of her first major initiatives was to make the college advising program more organized and strategic. At her recom mendation, the school invested in Scoir, a software that allows students to explore colleges, communicate college preferences, compile resumes, track admissions requirements, and request letters of recommendation and transcripts. Students are also given access to You-Science, which allows them to discover talents, apti tudes, and future majors and careers while playing brain games.

EXPANDING INTERNSHIP PROGRAM: The opportunity for hands-on practicums

through internships will be expanded to further enhance laboratory learning. All juniors are encouraged to seek summer positions in STEM industries, after completing six months of prepa ratory training that includes resume writing, workplace etiquette, and interpersonal skill development. The consistent success of the program has provided the impetus to expand, creating more venues through which students can access unique on-the-job experience. Alumni, donors, and parent and teacher connections are frequently the gateway to opportu nities at companies like Boeing and Childrens' Hospital. While enhancing their resume, students earn credit and gain a network of professionals and peers throughout the county.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT:

Prioritizing faculty and staff profes sional development is a cornerstone of effective leadership. Through its recent engagement of a consultant, the Tech is examining opportunities in order to retain top-notch instructors and admin istrators and help them continue to grow professionally. Understandably, this ultimately benefits students and the education they are receiving.

“Striving to continually offer more to students, we are focused on assem bling the best faculty, and providing growth opportunities to keep instruc tors on the forefront of their areas of expertise. We’re committed to devel oping a vibrant professional learning community,” said Mr. Krynen. “The better we can equip our instructors and counselors, and the more effec tively we can guide students, the more they benefit. And, at the end of the day, that’s remained the very heart of teaching at the Tech.”

“THEY’LL TELL YOU THAT BOSCO TECH IS THE ONLY SCHOOL IN THE COUNTRY WHO
DOES WHAT THEY DO. I’M HERE TO TELL YOU THAT IT IS THE ONLY SCHOOL IN THE
WORLD THAT DOES WHAT IT DOES—IT’S SO INVIGORATING TO SEE.”
–DR. ABIGAIL NORFLEET JAMES, AUTHOR AND EDUCATIONAL EXPERT

Because Bosco Tech’s administration building has long retained the traditional look prevalent during its 1954 construction, the need to create an accurate glimpse of the vitality of today’s Tech—and where it is headed in the future—is in the works.

FACILITIES IMPROVEMENT & TRANSFORMATION

The recently developed master reno vation plan for the entire campus will renew, modernize, and improve build ings. Renovation for one key element began this summer; the school’s lobby—the welcoming gateway to the campus—will give guests an insightful impression of the campus’ forwardlooking approach to education.

“The lobby design is the first step in a holistic, master-planned trans formation of the Tech campus,” said Kyle Peterson, AIA, LEED AP, HMC Architects’ Principal Architect. “It’s the campus’ first impression for every single visitor, student, and teacher, and should rightfully represent the vision and mission of the school, to provide fully-integrated Catholic, college-prep and engineering-science-technology education guided by the educational philosophy of St. John Bosco into the 21st century and beyond.”

“Both new and modernized facilities will have their designs influenced by the school’s rich past, but will be forward-looking and flexible to allow for technological advancements over time. New facilities will be influenced by the now classic, mid-century modern design aesthetic of the existing school, but will feature flexible and technologically-advanced educa tional spaces to optimize student learning potential.”

With the lobby’s iconic wall mosaic depicting the Tech’s foundational attributes remaining as the design anchor, the updated finishings and color schemes will complement the

54,000-tile masterpiece, creating a fresh and modern feel while maintaining an air of tradition, legacy and history.

The new lobby will showcase the expansive campus view through over sized glass windows, overlooking the mall and, in the distance, iconic Tech Hall, enabling guests to see straight to the heart of the campus.

“First-time guests tell us that they had no idea how large the campus really is until they step through the back doors of the lobby,” said Tech President Memo Gutierrez (Automotive Technology ’83). “The much-needed lobby update is opening up the view, enabling visitors a view of the expan sive campus and the open grassy mall.”

“A component of the overall goal for the campus, the lobby renova tion is not only a structural overhaul, but shows the vision for the campus beyond the present day,” he continued. “It is a carefully planned forward look to where our entire physical plant will be in the next two to three decades.”

The majority of the lobby renova tion’s $450,000 estimate was offset by generous gifts from the Dan Murphy Foundation and the Bill Hannon Foundation, both dedicated to supporting Catholic and educational institutions in Southern California. The foundations have been longtime supporters of the Tech and its students.

“We're incredibly grateful to the Dan Murphy Foundation and the Bill Hannon Foundation for their longstanding support. Because of them, we are able to showcase the school more effectively, by providing engaging and attractive facilities that accurately introduce who the Tech really is.” – MEMO GUTIERREZ

It’s been said that an exceptional board operates on a higher level time is spent more wisely, skills and social networks better leveraged, and treasured expertise more strategically deployed.

Throughout the Tech’s history, its board consistently has been comprised of key influencers in business and industry. And rightfully so, because the school has always been at the forefront of education and in preparing and equipping innovators.

for each position will enhance the current composition. When someone joins the board, they will be fully acquainted with the level of commitment required and what is expected of them, in their individual role.

GOVERNANCE

But maintaining an effective board is more than just filling spots. Leadership must be aligned with the school’s strategies and goals, and understand its unique needs and vision for the future. These key individuals should represent diverse perspectives to create a multi-faceted understanding of what must be accomplished. While upholding the unchanging mission, they must understand where the school is going and anticipate how to best help it reach those goals. It’s a given that board education should be ongoing, and board devel opment and growth are natural outshoots of that training and call to self-reflection.

Through the recently detailed Strategic Plan, our nominating committee members, and the board at large, have taken a fresh look at standard best practices for independent school board development and have developed a more structured onboarding approach. The plan includes engaging key prospects over a period of time, while school administration and trustees fully explain the responsibilities involved. A matrix will inventory skill sets and leadership charac teristics so that the best person

In a new move, an annual onboarding date will delineate members’ life cycles. The nomi nating committee is currently identifying and assembling the next class of inductees and, by the time they are officially appointed, the new trustees will have met with executive officers and adminis tration multiple times, completed orientation, and be fully cognizant of what is expected.

In addition to seeking leaders in currently emerging technologies, we’re looking years into the future to strategically prioritize areas that should be in sharpest focus as we seek the strongest advocates of our unique program. Areas like enrollment management, commit ment to fund development, and dedication to increasing positive exposure for our successes, are elements for consideration as we develop a diverse board presence.

More than ever before, the school’s high performing administrative team has our full confidence. That capability, coupled with the prudent imple mentation of the Strategic Plan, is enabling the board to focus on the big picture—future success and growth—while effectively representing the voices of all stakeholders.

We are grateful to our many alumni and friends who support Bosco Tech. The generosity of donors is vital to our ability to consistently offer a premier education to students.

FINANCIAL STRENGTH SUPPORTING THE TECH

We believe Bosco Tech’s mission of educating young men to be leaders with strong values is critical in today’s world. Our donation to the school is one way that we can support that belief and encourage others to do the same.

“Recently I visited Bosco Tech for the first time in many years and was given an outstanding tour. I saw the intense faculty commitment to the students and the great facilities that I too was fortunate to be provided as a student. Bosco Tech provides an outstanding STEM education and moral structure that is invaluable in today’s world. We need leaders with technical knowledge and integrity that Bosco Tech provides. Giving for me is easy, as the school has given so much to me. I know my contributions will be well used for the betterment of the students.”

– MIKE (ELECTRONICS '75) AND SANDY O’REILLY

My experience at Bosco Tech means the world to me. Don Bosco helped me lay a strong foundation and provided me with the tools to navigate the world in a way I never dreamt possible. My educational experience and participation in sports (basketball and cross country) taught me a work ethic which I have implemented in all aspects of my life. Don Bosco also taught me the importance of service to God, community and the importance of friendship and family. The young adults at Bosco Tech today are only limited by their own minds and can accomplish anything they can envision as they journey through life. My wife Whanda and I are proud to be able to support the next generation of Don Bosco professionals.

More than the academic and technical skills we take when we leave Bosco Tech is the realization that future success will take concerted effort and time that we learned how to budget effectively while at the Tech - in essence we learned how to work. Those lessons transfer to any future career and in my case and with God's help, allow me to be in a position to share my success by supporting current and future students and programs of Bosco Tech. If I had an unfulfilled wish, it would be that all alumni also give in accordance with their individual capabilities.

“BE THE GOSPEL!”

“Be the Gospel!” Those were the last words Brother John Rasor, SDB, addressed to the Tech student body, when they sang “Happy Birthday” to him outside his second-story residence window last October. Visibly touched, he encouraged them with his own life motto. Being the embodiment of the Good News drew Brother John to his vocation in the mid-1960s and carried him through his life’s work as an instructor.

Throughout his lengthy ministry, he taught at Bosco Tech for nearly 40 years. An iconic member of the Tech’s faculty, Brother John had the unique distinction of being the only instructor to teach in three different techno logical departments (then-named Materials Science, Electronics, and Computer Science).

Living Proof

When he passed away on December 22, 2021, the outpouring of grief and sympathy was palpable. Alumni and friends of the Tech took to social media to recall fond memories and share the impact Brother John had on their lives while they were students. The following are just a few of the comments shared, lifted directly from social media in the hours after his death and providing living proof that he fulfilled his mission to “Be the Gospel”:

• The single most influential man in my life. Brother John was an incredible combination of intelligence, courage, compassion and faith. I know that he is in the company of Don Bosco now. Truly a life well served.

• A great instructor who cared much about teaching & encouraging good fundamental values for life. "Show me your algorithm!" - still one of the best programming instructors I ever had in all my academic career.

• Just thinking about all the knowledge and wisdom he had and imparted on so many others is mind-boggling...the one thing I loved about him was that he didn't just give us the answers, he made us think to get the answers. The very picture of Salesian selflessness and everything I appreciated about my Bosco education.

• I will miss brother John. He encouraged me while challenging me to excellence. A precious man of God.

• I think back on how much he actually influenced our lives in those short years and am grateful for the life lessons.

• To this day, still one of the most caring and memorable teachers I’ve ever had. Rest In Peace, my captain!

• Another huge loss in the category of, “They don’t make ‘em like that anymore!” Always strict, but always fair. Always firm, but everyone who knew Brother Rasor loved him.

• Heaven gained a great one. Sleep with the angels, Bro. Rasor...

• Nicest and bravest person I met at Bosco Tech.

• Definitely one of the smartest any of us has had the good fortune to know!

Brother John’s presence and grace is greatly missed on the Tech campus, throughout the province, and by the many, many students who were fortunate to be taught by him. Rest in Peace, Brother John!

• It’s a big loss for the Tech, and a bigger one for society. Bro. Rasor was a class act. He was extremely intelligent, but humble. He had high expectations of us, but was caring about it. He held us accountable and was fair. RIP Bro Rasor...you’ll be missed.

I think of all the lives he touched & how many of those lives developed into fine young men. RIP.

• A brilliant man with a passion for working with the youth, who inspired many young men in MSET and CSEE. Rest in Peace Br. Rasor!

2022 STRENNA “DO ALL THROUGH LOVE, NOTHING THROUGH CONSTRAINT”

“Strenna” is an Italian word meaning gift, a small and cherished token, a nugget of truth often used by Don Bosco to direct and teach those in his original oratory. In keeping with that tradition, the worldwide Salesian community annually establishes an international thematic tone for each new year.

“Do all through love, nothing through constraint,” the 2022 strenna is taken from the words of St. Francis de Sales, an inspirational example to Don Bosco who followed the saint’s simple spirituality and philosophy of kindness

In his introduction of 2022’s strenna, Salesian Rector Major Father Ángel Fernández Artime, referenced the applicability of St. Francis’ words to today’s unique challenges that youth are facing and our loving response, as Salesians.

…Don Bosco has handed on to us his Preventive System as a means for carrying out our educational and pastoral service. This system is based entirely on reason, religion and loving kindness: instead of constraint, it appeals to the resources of intelligence, love and the desire for God, which everyone has in the depths of his being. It brings together educators and youngsters in a family experience of trust and dialogue.

Imitating God's patience, we encounter the young at their present stage of freedom. We then accompany them, so that they may develop solid convictions and gradually assume the responsibility for the delicate process of their growth as human beings and as men of faith...

… In short, going out to meet young people, wherever they may be and in whatever situation, continues to be our most distinc tive feature, confirming Don Bosco’s desire to love what young people love so that they will love what we love, spreading the Salesian spirit, our “valdocco option,” wherever the desire to be with young people takes us, living a true “Salesian sacra ment of presence,” and the commitment to carry out “small charity works.”

This is how we were born and this is how we want to follow Don Bosco, who found in Francis de Sales a model and a kindred spirit, a sort of soul mate.

FAITH
“St. Francis de Sales said, ‘You learn to speak by speaking, to study by studying, to run by running, to work by working, and just so, you learn to love by loving.’ In carrying out his timeless words, we must live lives that reflect that love, and in so doing, inspire young people.”
– FATHER THIEN NGUYEN, SDB, BOSCO TECH’S SALESIAN DIRECTOR

WAYS TO GIVE

IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT GIVING IS NOT JUST ABOUT MAKING A DONATION– it is about making a difference. We appreciate the difference generous donors are making in the lives of hard-working Bosco Tech students through their generosity. For many, the best way to make a significant contribution is through their estate. With planning and foresight, a legacy gift can assure that Bosco Tech’s mission is carried long into the future. There are also significant tax benefits involved in carefully planned giving, and gifts can work in tandem with other beneficiaries and personal priorities.

When considering a gift, please remember that there are many ways to make a lasting difference at Bosco Tech:

CHARITABLE REMAINDER TRUSTS: a charitable remainder trust can benefit you now by providing a lifetime income that is tax advantaged, save you income taxes now, reduce your estate tax later and benefit Bosco Tech.

CONTINGENT BENEFICIARIES: Naming Bosco Tech as a contingent beneficiary can benefit the Tech when the unexpected happens, but without loss if the normal course of events takes place. Contingent beneficiaries can be used in wills, life insurance and annuity contracts, pension accounts, IRAs, and 401(k)s.

STOCK GIFTS: If you give an asset with a long-term capital gain, you never have to pay the capital gains taxes, but get the same amount of tax deduction as if you gave a cash donation. This can be a huge tax saving for you, and still provide the Tech with all the intended benefit. Please note that the asset must qualify for long-term capital gains treatment and have a ‘gain’ to benefit.

GIFT MATCHING PROGRAMS: A long-time strategy for helping the Tech is to use an employer matching gift plan for your donation. In these plans, your employer will make a donation along side your contribution to the Tech, which can double your gift. Furthermore, your spouse may be eligible for a matching plan on the same gift, turning it into a triple benefit.

LIFE INSURANCE: Some people use life insurance as a way of multiplying their gift. For a small amount (the insurance premium), they can leave

Bosco Tech values our generous donors

a large amount (the death benefit) to the Tech. If you don’t have dependents, don’t forget the insurance provided by your employer; consider naming Bosco Tech as your beneficiary.

PENSIONS, IRAS, 401(K)S AND ANNUITIES: When paid out at death, these accounts may be taxed in excess of 75%, after you add up federal and state income taxes, state death taxes and federal estate taxes. If you name the Tech as your beneficiary, you sidestep all these taxes. If you’re married, you probably want to name your spouse as the primary beneficiary, but consider naming Bosco Tech as your contingent beneficiary.

STOCK OPTIONS: If exercised after your death, stock options will generate income taxes and may generate state taxes. However, if you name the Tech as beneficiary of your employer-provided stock options, both taxes will be eliminated.

QUALIFIED CHARITABLE DISTRIBUTIONS: Generally, a qualified charitable distribution (QCD) allows individuals who are 70½ years old or older to directly transfer up to $100,000 total to one or more qualified charities directly from a taxable IRA, instead of taking their required minimum distributions. As a result, QCDs exclude the amount donated from taxable income, allowing donors to possibly avoid being pushed into higher income tax brackets and prevent phase outs of other tax deductions, though there are some limitations. A tax advisor can help you determine if both your IRA and charity qualify for QCDs.

Tech Trustee Bishop David O'Connell and his faithful friends, the Unfriendly Sons of St. Patrick , pulled out all the stops to support Bosco Tech! Joined by Tech alumni and parents, the group hosted an incredibly successful celebration that raised funds for hardworking students!

Because of COVID, Techmen were limited in paying their respects in-person at the January funeral of Brother John Rasor, SDB (ME ’62). As a result, alumni and friends gathered in the Father Penna Chapel in May for a morning of remembrance of our brother, teacher, and friend.
