Message FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL Dear Rosary community, What a magnificent year! Reflecting on the 2022-2023 school year, I find myself full of great happiness. The ebb and flow of normalcy returned to campus. The energy and enthusiasm were palpable throughout the year. Faculty, staff, and students alike were hopeful, joyful, and mindful. Thank you for journeying with us. I am most grateful to each of you for all you do to help Rosary thrive and live out our charism and core values.

Our mission is to empower the mind, body, and spirit of each young woman with the Blessed Mother as our guide.

I marvel every year at all that our students learn and accomplish. Our students motivate me to be better and to ensure that a Catholic high school for young women continues to be relevant in our ever-changing world. As I reflect on the last six years as the head of school, I marvel at all that we have accomplished.

As I look to 2023-2024, I am confident it will be a year full of great promise. The faculty and staff will continue to guide our young women in their faith and intellectual development as we will continue to live our mission to transform and empower the mind, body, and spirit of each student.

Thank you for your continued partnership.

Yours in Christ,

ROYALETTE

GENERAL EXCELLENCE

Bridgette Sanders Syracuse University Musical Theatre

Giselle Tolentino University of California, Irvine Biology

The Royalette Award is the highest honor the Rosary community can bestow upon a graduating senior. Selection is made by the members of the senior class, the faculty, and administration.

This award is given to the senior who best exemplifies the spirit and character of Rosary in the tradition of Mary our patroness; therefore, this individual exhibits an active faith in Jesus Christ by reaching out to others. She gives unselfishly of herself to our community here at Rosary as well as to the greater community. She is a young woman of high moral standards who provides leadership and example to help other students realize the goals which we have set for ourselves at Rosary.

The General Excellence Award is conferred by the faculty upon the senior who has the highest all-around academic achievement. It is a highly significant honor because this student has not just specialized in one subject area, but has achieved excellence in all areas of study.

To be a saint means simply this; to love God with all our heart, to love Him, to trust Him, to abandon one’s self to Him completely in absolute confidence.

– Mother Bernard Gosselin

Living out OUR CHARISM

The parents are the first teachers of faith for the young women of Rosary Academy, and the faculty and staff do everything we can to instill and provide an environment where a young person’s faith will develop and thrive.

journeys in a small group experience and bond together as sisters in Christ. While also fully understanding the power of sisterhood and offering fun bonding activities throughout the day to build community and sisterhood, two more core values.

In 2018, Rosary established the charism to serve the dear neighbor without distinction, which is in honor to the school’s first administrators – the Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange. The Campus Ministry team has worked extremely hard to provide a nourishing environment for our young women to grow in their faith. All of our class level retreats have been intentionally designed to offer opportunities to build faith by encountering Christ through the Eucharist in Mass as well as in Adoration.

Our Kairos program, an optional senior level retreat, offers a powerful experience to encounter Christ in a very personal and intimate way. The small faith community enables the young women to share their journey in a safe and supportive way enabling them to gain perspective, wisdom, hope and guidance within their community – many of our young women grow and blossom profoundly during the Kairos experience.

We offer multiple talks each retreat to challenge our young women to reflect on their lives and their relationship with Christ.

We strive to help our young women live out our core values of faith and community by offering small faith activities which enable our young women an avenue to share about their faith 10

Rosary’s service outreach program has developed greatly over the past two years. We have 100% participation and strive to have our young women live out our Gospel Values and our school charism. The freshmen and sophomore classes worked together to provide a special event for Higher Ground and Rising Against Disabilities (RAD)/Down Syndrome Association of OC (DSAOC). Our sophomores hosted a “Winter Formal for

RAD & DSAOC and our freshmen worked with Higher Ground on two Health Fair Carnivals. We have also led school wide food drives in November and family adoption programs for Crittenton Services at Christmas. We host a sock drive in the winter for the homeless along with a coat and canned food drive in late February for the less fortunate. We encourage the entire Rosary Academy community to participate in all of our service outreach programs.

In striving to constantly enhance our faith formation and campus ministry programs, the first school prayer was created this school year:

We have also developed opportunities for our parents by offering various opportunities to enhance their faith development. We offer two-day long retreats for our moms and their daughters, in the fall and spring. We offer a Lenten series (5 weeks) to our parents and alumnae to enable them to develop and grow in their faith. As we continue to develop programming, we hope to add an Advent evening of reflection for our parents to help them to pause during a very busy season to encounter Emmanuel into their hearts.

Empower us to courageously live out the Gospel values, to be the hands and feet of Christ, in service to the dear neighbor, without distinction.

Gracious and loving Father, we thank you for the blessing of our Rosary community and the gift of sisterhood.

May our blessed Mother Mary continually inspire us to be young women of faith, echoing her yes to God’s will.

Amen. Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Find Your Passion WITH PATHWAYS In 2017, Rosary launched its first Pathway, STREAM (Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Arts, and Math). The purpose of the STREAM Pathway was to offer a program to students exploring college majors and careers in STEM while also incorporating Rosary’s Catholic faith. If a student was accepted, then elective courses would align with the subject area, such as computer science, sports medicine, and engineering. Additionally, enrolling in the program guaranteed each student the opportunity for internships or shadowing opportunities in the specific field. At the end of the program, each student presents to a panel of faculty and staff members on their overall experience, how the pathway will be incorporated in college and beyond, and feedback on their time at Rosary.

Dr. Richard Yoon, assistant principal of academics, shares “As part of the transformative educational experience, Pathways students explore their respective interests while having real world experiences. They have the opportunity to exercise ethical judgement and embody our charism to serve the dear neighbor without distinction at the root of social justice.”

Nicky Angle ‘19 was in the first class to complete the STREAM Pathway. Nicky

shared, “The STREAM program helped me prepare for college because it taught me to take initiative in my STEM based learning and provided the opportunity to take programming classes that prepared me for college. Nicky completed a B.S. in Computer Science at Cal State University, Fullerton.

Marie Medlen ‘20 was in the second STEAM cohort and is entering her final year in a traditional nursing program.

The STREAM program allowed Marie to volunteer at a local hospital and see how medical professionals work together with the patient to improve her health.

After running STREAM for 3 years, there was a need to expand the pathways.

At the start of the 2022 school year, Rosary separated STEM and now offers the following areas: computer science, engineering, medical, sports medicine, law, and performing arts. Dr. Yoon continues to expand the program because he believes, “A Pathway student will receive an educational structure which includes a rigorous academic course of study, authentic contextual learning experiences, supportive mentors and advisors, and personalized counseling services to prepare her for college and career.”

As the college admissions process continues to change, the Pathways program is an opportunity for students to build the skills, knowledge, and qualifications they need to enter a competitive college or university. Completing specialized programs, like Pathways, combined with experience in a field give Rosary students an edge.

Annabella Barretto ’23 is heading to the University of California, San Diego, on an athletic and academic scholarship. She completed the sports medicine Pathway during her time at Rosary and shares, “[The sports medicine pathway] helped me improve my communication skills, gave me the ability to work quickly in an urgent situation, and provided hands-on learning with injuries in real-time.” Annabella plans to double major in human biology and liberal arts, and attests that the sports medicine pathway “gave her confidence to continue [her] athletic training journey in college, as well as real-world experience I plan to use in my career.”

Dr. Shawna Pautsch, head of school, is excited to see the Pathways program grow.

She shares, “Rosary’s Pathways Program is intended to support young women who want to dive deeper into various fields of study and career paths and offers opportunities for students to engage handson with curriculum through problem-based thinking.” Dr. Patusch is excited to see the program grow and add performing arts, leadership, and humanities and continue to inspire Rosary students to see themselves as leaders, innovators, and changemakers.

If you are interested in learning more about Rosary’s Pathways or partnering with us for an internship, please contact Dr. Rich Yoon at ryoon@rosaryacademy.org.

Student Articles THE BIBLE: A REFLECTION By: Anna Jordan ’23

I’ve always loved to read and write. Endless hours of my childhood were dedicated to consuming any book I could get my hands on like milk to keep my bones strong or typing up six-page stories that I’d print out and staple together, eager to show to my family. Religion, however, was conversely not a large part of my life until I attended Rosary Academy.

kingdom. All of a sudden, everything made sense to me.

Not only was the Bible a story, but it was also an eventful one at that! There was endless drama, deception, redemption, romance – whether it was in Abraham’s marital status, the story Cain and Abel, or in Solomon’s redemption – there was something for everyone. There was weight in every word of the Bible.

As a freshman, I was absolutely and utterly terrified. I was in a new place experiencing things I’d never had to do I could see literary genius in the ways that not a single word before: uniforms, honors classes, Mass and its own special of any biblical book wasted its meaning in foreshadowing uniform… I couldn’t keep up! I clung to books like lifesavers Jesus. I could see the progression of our faith as it migrated for even a brief moment of normalcy and continuity, and yet and fluctuated like a living, breathing entity, and the way I found that exact solace it exploded like a blown somewhere I’d never even Throughout my four years of Catholic education dandelion after the final conceived: my freshman covenant clicked into place at Rosary, a sense of wonder regarding the religion class with Ms. with the Church on its way literary nature of the Bible has not left me.

God’s love in my community and beyond. Compassion enables us to lift up our neighbors and walk alongside them, just as our faith calls us to do. It strengthens our ties to one another and reaffirms our duty to spread kindness into the world.

Second, my faith has helped me understand the ability to trust comes with learning how to love. Trusting a person is no easy task, especially when that person is not physically present. God having a plan for everyone was a difficult concept for 5-year-old me to understand. I often found myself questioning parts of my life, and the answer to “Trust in God’s plan” didn’t always suffice.

But I’ve grown to see that God has always led me over every bridge I’ve crossed—all I needed to do was hold onto my faith.

This trust is what allows me to believe, and I believe in the good of others, and I believe in the importance of finding light in even the toughest of situations. I love God enough that I can take each day as it comes because I trust in Him to do what is best for me.

KEEPING THE FAITH By: Caela Cabal ’23

When asked who they’ve learned the most from, typically my peers answer “parents” or “teachers.” While both responses are acceptable (and logical), my answer isn’t quite the same. I absolutely value all that my parents and teachers have taught me over the years; however, the most important lessons I have learned come from my faith, a gift that has shaped me into the person I am.

First and foremost, my faith has taught me how to love. Love is essential to what it means to be Catholic; God knows how to love because He was the very first to do so. His love projects perfection into a world that is imperfect, as if sprouting a field of flowers on barren soil. My faith not only causes me to grow in my love for God, but also in my love for myself and others. It brings me a sense of community and of companionship, gifting me with many different relationships forged on its foundation.

In turn, I have learned how to be compassionate, manifesting 16

Third, my faith shows me that hope is simply trust in a desirable outcome. Hope provides the motivation and means to be committed to a goal and to persevere when faced with obstacles. Our lives test us daily, but our belief in God is how we can continue moving forward. My faith shows me what hope looks like. It is believing that no matter what life may throw at us, love and goodness will always prevail. Having hope demonstrates our confidence in God, letting us stand firm in the face of adversity. Hope embodies the idea of having faith in what may seem to be impossible and trusting that the future will bring what is right for us.

Being raised in the Catholic faith has taught me how to live a life of integrity and benevolence by exemplifying Christ.

Growing up rooted in faith has given me a strong foundation to build my life upon.

When I feel lost and struggle to find my way, I know I can always look to my faith to lead me towards what is right.

I know I am a part of something bigger than just myself and recognizing that I can find peace and guidance through God comforts and inspires me. My Catholic education at Rosary has only deepened my faith, allowing me to be the light for those I encounter in and out of school.

MY HEART’S FULLEST IN ROOM 208 By: Daniela Arias ’23

After three years of serving on the Royal Reporter, the time has come. It’s time to say goodbye to the newspaper I’ve written on for what seems like my entire time at Rosary, and let me just tell you, it’s not easy.

For a long time in high school, I felt a little bit lost. I didn’t have a “thing,” and it seemed to me that all my brilliant classmates already came into Rosary having an established “thing.” Some had a flair for theatre, others were star athletes, and some were just astronomically smart. But, what was I? That was something I found myself questioning often. What was I, and how would I find a way to make myself stand out in a sea full of talented girls?

Obviously, I found that answer written in bold while picking my elective for my sophomore year. I had dabbled in broadcast journalism in middle school, but I had never really had experience in print journalism. Nonetheless, I pushed my fear of the unknown and my doubts aside, and I decided to try journalism—hoping that it could potentially be my “thing.”

Fast forward three years later, not only is it my thing, but it’s also my college major! It’s the major that got me into the school that I’ll be dedicating four years of my life to.

The Royal Reporter didn’t just give me an idea of what I wanted to do in the future; it gave me my identity and an idea of what I want my purpose in life to be. The staff writer to Editor-in-Chief pipeline is not for the weak, but it forces you to grow.

Being editor-in-chief, I’ve grown my compassion, firmness, communication skills, and I’ve learned how to become a leader

who leads on the foundations of kindness and understanding.

I don’t think I realized how much I enjoyed helping others learn and grow until I became Editor-in-Chief. It showed me that although I’m still learning and developing in writing and even as a person, I can still serve as a mentor to others.

Being on the Royal Reporter, I also came to embrace chaos and hecticness. I know, I know, who likes chaos? But, for me, nothing can top the adrenaline pumping through my veins as I edit five articles in one sitting. I thrive off of being busy.

Because—though I may not like to admit it—when I feel busy, I feel like I have a purpose.

I can’t write this article without including a few thank you’s…

So, thank you, Ms. Barclay.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for trusting me as Editor-in-Chief and trusting my judgment when it comes to all things journalism. You helped me find what makes me happy and gave me an idea of what I would like to pursue. That is something that I feel not even a million thank you’s could express my gratitude for.

Thank you to all my fellow writers on the Royal Reporter. I’m a firm believer that you can’t be a leader if there’s no one allowing/seeking for you to lead, but you all made it easy.

Your creativity and innovation when it comes to articles leave me in awe each week, and I’ll miss the refreshingly hilarious commentary coming from the left side of the classroom and all the gossip from the right.

Whether we needed a hug, high-five, or shoulder to cry on, the women we walked the halls with made us the women we are today – confident, passionate, and eager to make a difference. Thank you to the Rosary alumnae who are getting involved and giving back. It is with your continued support that Rosary continues to stand strong as the only all-girls school in Orange County and offer a safe space for young women to find their voice, deepen their faith, and discover their strengths.

To ensure Rosary is thriving for decades to come, it will take every alumna to be engaged and actively involved. New events, like the alumnae cycling class and wine socials, are being added to the calendar. We offer Speak to Inspire and Sophomore Professional Development to engage and mentor current students. And, we are launching Moms & Littles for Rosary alumnae with younger children. Activities will be hosted throughout the year on campus, so you can connect with other Rosary moms for support and encouragement while reminiscing on past teachers, Red & Gold memories, and the famous breakfast burritos.

Hope to see you soon!

Alumnae FEATURES ISABELA MORALES ’08 Since her days at Rosary, alum Isabela Morales ’08 has awed those around her with her unique and empathetic approach to historical writing; in fact, Huntington Library recently awarded her their 2023 Shapiro Book Prize for her book on American history and culture, “Happy Dreams of Liberty: An American Family in Slavery and Freedom.”

The biennial award celebrates outstanding historical research and scholarship, reflecting the glowing reviews from her readers regarding her presentation of the lives of those freed following the death of plantation owner, Samuel Townsend.

What do you remember about Rosary?

I think a lot of my classmates at Rosary would remember me as the “JSA girl.” I was constantly evangelizing the Junior State of America to anyone who would listen. JSA events were some of the first opportunities I had to share my opinions and discuss important political topics with people outside of my small circle of friends and family. My beliefs have certainly evolved since then, but being a part of JSA definitely expanded my views and exposed me to diverse perspectives I wouldn’t have encountered at school or at home.

Seeing my script come to life on stage and hearing my dialogue performed by people who could really act was amazing.

I was on the Royal Reporter staff throughout high school and served as the editor-in-chief my senior year, and I was a script captain for Red and Gold that year as well. That’s one of my best memories.

that; I thought perhaps I’d end up a playwright. I’ll add that coming back as a Red and Gold judge has been on my bucket list for years, so I’m still keeping my fingers crossed for that.

Have you always enjoyed writing?

I’ve wanted to be a writer since I learned how to read in kindergarten. My second-grade teacher was even kind enough to set aside a spot on the class bookshelf for me to share the stories I “published.” I’ve never forgotten that. The fact that I had so many adults encourage my interest in writing throughout my life — not just my parents but also teachers like Ms. Barclay and her mother Mrs. Leiding, who was my eighthgrade teacher — made a big difference.

Writing history can be frustrating. Finding the exact combination of words that will convey the idea that seems so clear in my head generally involves a lot of exasperated typing and pacing around my office.

Creating a compelling narrative out of the scattered historical sources I have, especially when researching enslaved people for whom sources are difficult to find, is like putting together a jigsaw puzzle without knowing the picture on the box. What I enjoy is seeing the puzzle come together, even when the end product inevitably has missing pieces.

KATIE FANG ’22 With such artistic talent, it’s not surprising that in Katie’s first semester of college at UCLA she recently wrote, illustrated, and published a children’s book, “The Magic Pop-Up Shop.”

Read how Rosary prepared Katie for college: Transitioning from Rosary to a big campus like UCLA was definitely a change, but Rosary taught me to have confidence in who I am and to build genuine friendships.

Rosary also equipped me with healthy academic habits, such as managing my time well and finding the balance between school and social life.

Faith has always been a significant part of my life, and it will continue guiding me through the obstacles I face in college. Rosary truly taught me the importance of being a part of something bigger than myself, whether it was through clubs, the Robotics Team, or Red and Gold. The core value of service also resonates with the many volunteer opportunities that Rosary provided me with. Finally, Rosary’s emphasis on sisterhood creates a welcoming environment where we were taught to love and empathize with one another.

My fondest memory during my time at Rosary would be all of the warm days when I laughed with friends, bonded with teachers, and performed during Red and Gold. I am so grateful for all of the life-long friendships I formed while at Rosary.

SOPHOMORE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT DAY A day designed for sophomores as they prepare to explore college and career options in their junior year.

Thank you to all the Rosary alumnae who gave their time for this year’s event!

This school year, we lost Lisa Nollette, campus minister at Rosary for over 20 years, Jan Lovette, assistant principal at Rosary for 8 years, and Trudy Mazzarella, the first president of Rosary, serving 31 years of service. These women were champions of Rosary and the all-girls experience and collectively touched the lives of thousands of women during their tenure. Like Mary’s yes, these outstanding women said yes to Rosary High School and their legacy will forever live on. Funds were launched in memory of each one – Trudy Mazzarella Tuition Assistance, Lisa Nollette Kairos Scholarships, and Jan Lovette Fund for Faculty & Staff Retention. Thank you to the entire community for your prayers and support to the families.

Thank You FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Dear Rosary community, As I reflect on the 2022-2023 year, I am beyond appreciative for the time, treasure, and talents from our entire community. Your generosity is vital for the only all-girls school in Orange County to thrive. Every gift, no matter the size, and every hour given makes a direct impact.

I want to take a moment to thank all the volunteers who answered the call to give of their time in the pouring rain on Saturday, January 14, at our 20th Red Wine & Gold. I was grateful by the immediate support of moms, dads, alumnae, parents of alumnae, and students. Everyone moved the entire event from the lawn to the gym and were drenched from head-to-toe with mud on their shoes. I took a moment to look around and realized how blessed we are to be a part of the Rosary family. With all of our efforts, we were able to raise over $275,000 for need-based tuition assistance.

I also want to thank our Rosary Moms Club for launching the first-ever Mother-Daughter Christmas Brunch, the Rosary Dads Club for hosting the 2nd annual Senior Send-off Breakfast, and the new Grandparents Club for sponsoring ice cream at the end of the year. Thank you for your efforts in ensuring our Royals for supported and loved throughout the year.

Through last year’s generous donors, we had the opportunity to upgraded 3 more classrooms, updated room 5, purchased the Hallow App for all faculty and staff, added solar panels to campus, funded need-based tuition assistance, sponsored lunch for the students, https://www.sfayl.org/and much more!

In a time of many philanthropic opportunities, thank you for making a meaningful impact and ensuring Rosary thrives for decades to come.

Each of you are in my prayers, and may God continue to bless you and your families.

Go Royals!
