From the President
Dear Friends,
It is with deep gratitude that we present the annual report for our last fiscal year. Your unwavering commitment to Nativity Prep has been critical to providing the relationships and resources needed to ensure a continued educational journey for our students and alumni. Through imperfect times your generosity has been a source of hope, nourishing an education that empowers our students to reach their potential by caring for their intellectual, spiritual, social and physical growth.

In this new academic year, we are excited to continue building on our foundation as a Jesuit middle school offering boys in grades 5th – 8th an environment of academic excellence that cares for the whole child. Partnerships in this work are critical to our success, and we are thrilled to begin a multi-year collaboration with the Roche Center for Catholic Education at Boston College. Through ongoing instructional coaching and school-wide professional development, this deepened relationship with Boston College gives our educators additional resources to help provide the quality education our boys deserve.
A hallmark of the Nativity Prep education is the uninterrupted support of our graduates. Our College Promise Program has proven that financial resources can remove obstacles to college persistence. Through a generous matching gift from the Johnson Scholarship Foundation, Nativity Prep is building on an endowed fund that will help us expand our program, ensuring our graduates have the support needed to complete college.
In reflecting on these developments, think about how each Thursday morning at Nativity Prep, the entire school participates in the Examen, a prayer in the Jesuit tradition. It guides us to pause, be grateful, review our past, see that God is present in our lives, and look to the future with hope. As a school, we have been blessed by a community of supporters that believes in creating an opportunity for young boys to thrive. Through your care, Nativity Prep continues to create a hope-filled future for our students.
With gratitude,
Brian P. Maher, President
