A Message from the

Principal

Dear Judge Memorial – St. Mary’s Community We are at that time of the year where we welcome a new set of students into the alumni ranks. There is a great sense of pride in honoring these students with a Judge Memorial Catholic High School diploma. As we conclude the year, there are many reasons to be joyous and thankful. Here are a few of the highlights: The Class of 2018 earned over $18.6 million in scholarships and renewable grants, a senior was named a National Merit Scholarship recipient, members of the Class of 2018 were accepted by over 155 colleges and universities, and will attend 60 colleges or universities in 19 states.

Rebecca Akec ‘19 won the statewide Poetry Out Loud competition and competed at the national level in Washington D.C. Judge Memorial’s girls’ tennis team and boys’ soccer team won the 3A state championship. Judge Memorial’s girls’ soccer team was the state runner up. This was an exciting year in athletics.

Judge Memorial launched our Karios Retreat Program, which was met with great enthusiasm. The effects of the program have permeated through the hallways.

Each year we decide on a school-wide theme. This year our student council decided on the phrase “Stay Gold.” We reminded students of the Golden Rule throughout the year. We challenged the students to treat themselves and each person they met with dignity. We also challenged students to break out of the socially isolating role that technology seems to push them towards. We will continue to make our students’ social and emotional health a priority throughout their overall educational experience.

We are saying goodbye to a few teachers that have made an impact on generations of students. Jerry Burchett and Pam Mayeda will be retiring at the end of the school year. Jerry Burchett has worked with students in our counseling department for over thirty years. His impact will be long felt. Pam Mayeda has worked in the Catholic school system for near thirty years and has impacted thousands of lives. We are grateful for their positive impact felt by generations of Judge Memorial students.

Judge Memorial Catholic High School will continue to foster the growth of Cura Personalis within our student body. As we care for the whole person we look to create a safe place for students to grow academically, socially, physically, and spiritually. We are grateful for our opportunity to positively impact so many lives.

Thank you for continuing to care for our Judge Memorial community and all the many ways you support the work we do.

Judge Generations

By Ric Trentman ‘84

In the early 1960’s, Weight Watchers founder Jean Nidetch began inviting friends into her Queens, NY home once a week to discuss challenges and provide support to lose weight. In 1963, these weekly meetings were incorporated and Weight Watchers was born. By the mid-sixties, Weight Watchers had made its way to Fort Worth, Texas and forever changed the life of Dic Trentman and his family.

By the early seventies, business growth required additional resources and the Trentmans wanted family near. Sons Ric and John moved their families from Texas and Weight Watchers of Salt Lake City, Inc. became a generational family business. The Trentmans quickly immersed themselves in the Catholic community headlined by Catholic education. It wasn’t long before Dic and Dorsey had ten grand-

Dic had a lifelong struggle with weight. He found success with Weight Watchers, losing 69 lbs.

Passionate about the change in his life and what Weight Watchers could bring to others, Dic and his wife Dorsey applied, qualified, trained and purchased franchise rights bringing Weight Watchers to the Wasatch Front in August of 1969.

Along with a few trusted friends from Fort Worth to help, Salt Lake City became their home. With Dic’s passion the business stretched throughout Utah and into areas in Idaho, Wyoming and Nevada.

2018

HOMECOMING REUNION CELEBRATION CONSIDER A CLASS GIFT for your Milestone Reunion Since 1921, Judge Memorial Catholic High School has continued to develop strong traditions. Our alumni have shaped the school during their student years and continue to be involved in the life of the school as generous supporters, parents (and grandparents), and faculty/staff. We deeply appreciate all that our Bulldog alumni do in support of Judge.

In 2018, Judge Memorial will celebrate the classes of 1953, 1958, 1963, 1968, 1973, 1978, 1983, 1988, 1993, 1998, 2003, 2008, and 2013.

If this is one of your milestone reunion years, we ask you to consider giving a gift to Judge in honor of your class. Last year, the Class of 1987 was able to give the largest class gift in Judge history by rallying their classmates to support Judge in honor of their 30th reunion and say thank you for their high school experience.

Donations can be recognized individually and as a ‘class gift’ in support of the school. You can make your tax-deductible contribution online at www.judgememorial.com. It is our belief that once a “Bulldog” always a “Bulldog.”
