Dear Friends,

hen I finish writing this note, I will head off to Menlo ParkAtherton to take a look at a Performing Arts Center that was constructed with interior finishes similar to what is being recommended for our Chapel “We can all take of the Jesuit Martyrs encouragement from the of North America. Yes, vision and spirit of 1963... our journey continues It will take considerable and many very dedicatresources to care for our ed and generous people students, but our dreams have been working today are no different from closely with school adthe hopes back then. ” ministrators and board members to bring us ever closer to a chapel groundbreaking celebration in the not-to-distant future.

Let the Memories Begin I am certain that the construction of our new chapel will evoke memories of the construction of the original buildings of the Jesuit campus in 1963. Our founding generation of parents and benefactors were men and women of vision who were not easily daunted by the task they set out for themselves – the construction of a multi-building college prep campus financed, in part, by the sale of Christmas ornaments and countless gifts in kind. We can all take encouragement from the vision and spirit of 1963. I hope that our celebration of our 50th anniversary of service will also inspire. There is much that we can do and, honestly, much that we need to do. It will take considerable resources to care for our students, but our

dreams today are no different from the hopes back then. Our community continues to need smart and deeply moral leaders whose core motivation is service rather than self-interest. And to make that happen, Jesuit High School will continue to support a passionate faculty and a campus that helps to make aspirations realities. The Church calls us to remember in a special way this month our beloved dead. We pray often and especially for our graduates who have gone before us and for their families who miss them. And we pray for you, too. Please accept my thanks for all you have done for our Jesuit High School community. You help to make each new day possible at 1200 Jacob Lane. With Warmest Regards,

Fr. President David Suwalsky, S.J. and his Secret Service detail (a.k.a. JHS Chamber Singers) at the 31st Annual President’s Club Dinner on September 26, 2012.

Fr. David J. Suwalsky, S.J. President
