SPOTLIGHT ON
Building Futures
St. Mary’s builds futures starting from sixth grade. The students featured on the cover of this issue of St. Mary’s Magazine are the first graduating class from the inaugural sixth grade class of St. Mary’s Marian Division. Now seven years later, these students will be the first to have fully experienced the entire seven-year road map that St. Mary’s offers. St. Mary’s builds futures, from our urban campus in Lynn to whichever preferred option for college our graduates choose. St. Mary’s students move on to extraordinary areas of study and pursue amazing careers. All of these options come from the rigorous academics at St. Mary’s. St. Mary’s is building futures with plans for an expanded campus, enhanced academic offerings and scholarships for students of talent and faith. We continue to reflect on our legacy as we look toward our bright future. We hope you enjoy this issue of St. Mary’s Magazine: Building Futures.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES
God is good G
race Cotter Regan began her time as Head of School for St. Mary’s in July of 2012. Coming to St. Mary’s from the New England Province of Jesuits where she worked as the Executive Director and Provincial Assistant, her goal was to be back in a school setting. “I always aspired to lead a Catholic school because I was always drawn to influence the next generation of leaders,” Grace says. Her goal has come to fruition. Grace has been instrumental in establishing many “firsts” for St. Mary’s and setting a new standard of performance and accountability that is sure to leave a lasting impact. Hired to create a culture of accountability, Grace believes having a strategic vision is really important. Grace jumped right into the culture and community of St. Mary’s and deeply understands the school’s mission “to educate students from Lynn and the North Shore and create an urban, Catholic, global opportunity to develop your intellect, faith, and heart.” Grace continues, “The differentiator for me about St. Mary’s is regardless of your socio-economic status or diversity of talents, everyone is on the same level playing field. St. Mary’s reflects the world and everybody can succeed.”
Board Chair William S. Mosakowski says, “Grace has been a game-changer for our school. She has given us our Pillars, renewed our commitment to the communities of the North Shore with a special focus on our urban areas, supported our dedication to Catholic values and ideals, and she has directly made an impact on so many individual students at St. Mary’s who have viewed her as a role model and mentor. Grace has left her mark on St. Mary’s and for that we are grateful; she has given us a gift for years to come — our vision has been elevated. During Grace’s tenure, St. Mary’s has enhanced its academic profile and co-curricular offerings, and the brand is strongly established as academic, athletics and legacy. We are NEASC accredited and focused on our academic dashboard.
Strategy in Motion:
Grace’s Commissioning Mass held on October 16, 2012
Varsity Club launched in 2014 to establish recognition to honor the incredible legacy of athletic tradition at St. Mary’s.
The 18th Annual Cushing Awards Ceremony was moved to the PEM in 2013 and the Mary Grassa O’Neil Scholarship was established moving the event from a stewardship event to a fundraising event. The Inaugural Scholars Program was launched during the 2013–2014 school year
The Pillars of Catholic, Excellence, Integrity and Respect were born from the first mission retreat where faculty and staff gathered to reflect on mission and charisms of St. Mary’s. Established the first Fan Fest to celebrate all things Spartan Sports!
Trustee Mark Doyle ’76 says, “Marketing, communications and brand are in Grace’s DNA. She saw an opportunity in every event and interaction to shine the spotlight on what makes St. Mary’s unique and distinctive, in a creative way. It was a pleasure to partner with her and others as the marketing committee was formed. She is a natural.” Grace will “miss the students. I think what’s made my experience so special is that I have really come to know the students’ stories and understand their challenges and successes. I am enamored by the community; made up of our faculty, staff and alumni; it inspires me everyday. I will also miss the community of Lynn. One of the greatest things we’ve done is become a civic partner.“ Grace is thankful for the incredible leadership of the board. “Looking at the evolution of the leadership, the board we have right now reflects the leaders of the past. I am sure Msgr. Garrity, Tony, Jack and Joan are beaming with pride. Bill Mosakowski, Betty Twomey and Fr. Brian Flynn have been strategic thought partners.” Grace believes the success of the campaign bodes well for the future of St. Mary’s. “There is something in the water here.”
time, God is good,” acts like a reset for him. Grace says, “We are part of something bigger and that is our faith. God has a bigger plan for all of us and we are part of that plan.” Trustee and Catholic Identity Board Chair Mark Mathers P’19’22 states, “Grace leaves behind an enduring legacy of Catholic faith in action. She brought with her a deep Jesuit spirituality that permeated her leadership. There was never any doubt during her time that the first of our Four Pillars was and is Catholic. I am proud to be Chairperson of the Catholic Identity Committee and we will endeavor to continue to grow and develop our Catholic vocation to bring the Lord to our St. Mary’s community.” Grace brought so many things to the next level at St. Mary’s and she is confident that the next Head of School will be able to bring his or her vision to St. Mary’s. “It’s about succession planning.” In conclusion, Grace says, “I have loved St. Mary’s. You can have fun leading a school, and if you have fun, it permeates the culture. God is indeed good.” By Jamie Gigliotti
Recalling the Class of 2017 Baccalaureate Mass during which Anthony DelVecchio ’17 spoke of how one question posed to him, “What sets you on fire?” was a differentiator while he was choosing a high school and how Grace’s famous “God is good, all the time, all the

Head of School Transition Team Board Chair, William S. Mosakowski says, “I am confident that the management and transition team are poised to advance the mission of St. Mary’s as we search for a new Head of School.” MARY DELANEY CHIEF TRANSITION OFFICER AND INTERIM HEAD OF SCHOOL Mary Delaney has worked at St. Mary’s since March of 2015. Mary was recommended to St. Mary’s by Julie O’Connor McGinn ’73, who hired Mary to join the Regis College Admission team years ago. Mary’s experience spans over 30 years in Catholic Schools. Mary has since held leadership roles at various schools including Newton Country Day, Aquinas College, Elizabeth Seton Academy and Ursuline Academy to name a few. Mary plans to focus on the administrative functions of St. Mary’s. Her effective management and collaborative skills will help Mary, along with the team, develop a vision for St. Mary’s during this transformative time. JAMES RIDLEY PRINCIPAL AND ACADEMIC MANAGEMENT TEAM LEADER James Ridley, Principal, has over 40 years experience in education, 34 of which were served in the Lynn Public School System, with 18 of those years in Administration. Mr. Ridley accepted the role of Principal at St. Mary’s for the 2015/16 school year. Jim will continue to serve as Principal during this transition time and will also lead the academic management team. JEFF NEWHALL ’94 DIRECTOR OF CAMPUS OPERATIONS AND ATHLETIC DIRECTOR Jeff Newhall ’94, Athletic Director, has worked at St. Mary’s for 16 years and has been the Athletic Director for 11. Jeff is a trusted leader at St. Mary’s and will continue his role as Athletic Director, while managing the upcoming building projects for the Building Futures Campaign as well as the auxiliary services at the school, including campus safety and security.

The Spartans gave top seeded Hamilton-Wenham all they could handle in the quarters before falling short.
The St. Mary’s golf team claimed the 2017 MIAA Golf State Championship to extend the Spartans athletic departments improbable run of consecutive years with at least one state title to 11 years. “After finishing as the finalist a year ago, the kids came back determined to take the top spot,” said Spartan coach Jay Fiste, whose team defeated second place Weston by 8 shots after falling to the Wildcats in 2016 by 7 strokes. “The school has great sports programs. We’re just happy to be a part of it. I knew we had a really good team this year. We just had to play strong to beat Weston and we did.”
BOYS TRACK 5-4
Captains: Fred Blaise ’17, James Brumfield ’18, Jack Carroll ’18, Nicolas Colacitti ’17, Christian Couillard ’17 The Spartans had numerous runners perform well throughout the season and in the CCL Championship, but the highlight of the spring season was James Brumfield taking home the state championship in the decathlon.
GIRLS TRACK 5-4
Captains: Rose Callahan ’18, Anna Maria Chaput ’17, Morgan Pappas ’17, Kelli Powers ’17, Grace Couillard ’18 St. Mary’s put together another solid spring season that included some great performances in the freshman/ sophomore and CCL Championship meets.
The Spartans, who won the Catholic Central League for the second consecutive season and third time in four years, finished the regular season with an overall record of 16-3. The regular season included some great performances across the board. Along with the state tournament participants Christian Emmerich, Benny Emmerich, Luke Smith, Luke Sargent, Chris Fioravanti and Aedan Leydon, the Spartans received solid play throughout the regular season from Nicolas Cicolini, Kevin McMullen, Owen Maguire, Peter Pagliuca, Sean Mathers, Richard Pagliuca and Chris Kirby. “While we can only take the top six to sectionals and the state final, there is no question our regular season success wouldn’t have been possible without contributions from the whole team,” said Fiste, whose team won a few tight matches with big scores coming from the bottom of the lineup. “To do something like this it takes more than 6 kids and the whole team should be proud of this accomplishment.” The Spartans qualified for the state finals after a north sectional team score of 314 at Far Corner in Boxford. It was ten shots off the winning pace set by Weston. The state final would be a reversal of fortune, thankfully for the Spartans.

SIX-CESS: FIRST CLASS OF SIXTH GRADERS TO GRADUATE THIS YEAR By the time they are done —and they realize that day will be here far too soon for their own liking —they will have spent seven years at St. Mary’s, or almost half their lives. So, it is understandable that the 15 seniors who were members of the first sixth-grade class at St. Mary’s have mixed emotions when considering that they are in their final months at the school. “Leaving will definitely be bittersweet,” said MacKenzie Spates. “We’ve been here so long; it will be such a big change.” “To be in one place for seven years, you can’t see yourself somewhere else,” added Mykayla DeLuca. In retrospect, they experienced similar trepidation in September 2011 when they entered the Marian Division. At that time, St. Mary’s was the big unknown. “When we came into the middle school, it seemed so big,” said Jack Carroll. “In high school, everything seemed so small.” If there is one thing that becomes crystal-clear when talking to the St. Mary’s “lifers,” it is the seemingly

FALL/WINTER 2017
unbreakable bonds they have formed on Tremont Street. “We have a special connection,” said Kyle Bernadini. “We started out together and have grown together.” “I think a lot of us are closer than we are with some of the people we met freshman year,” Spates said. “My closest friends are from middle school,” Amy Savia added. They seem to wax nostalgic when harkening back to their Marian Division days. “Middle school was a fun place to hang out, versus a place you have to prepare yourself for the rest of your life,” Gonzalez said. “Middle school was the best time of my life,” said Anthony Nikolakakis. Marian Division Dean Jackie Foley has watched this group grow and mature as students and individuals. “They have experienced a lot of change, but it has been positive change,” said Foley, who was a Marian Division teacher when the group entered sixth grade and became an administrator two years later. “We have added a variety of curriculum offerings and
are working toward a more uniform grade 6–12 curriculum.” Foley noted this year’s eighth grade class is the largest (54) in the last six years. The students’ reasons for choosing St. Mary’s are what you would expect: older sibling went there, wanted to meet new people, interested in a small school and wanted a faith-based education.
“We went through all the changes and learned how to adapt,” Julia Belliveau said. While they are in no hurry to leave a place where they feel eminently comfortable, the seniors do feel ready for what awaits.
“I wanted the Catholic experience,” said Lauren Gonzalez. “It’s really interesting to have a faith-based school and to be able to talk about religion.”
“We’ve been preparing for years to go back into a big pond (college),” Carroll said. “I plan on going into the medical field, and going to a school that focuses on experiential and independent learning has prepared me for the rigorous course ahead.”
“My friends were coming here and I wanted to meet different people,” said Brendan McCarthy.
There are still many more memories to create before they don their caps and gowns in late May.
“I came here because I knew sixth grade would be a lot smaller,” Savia said.
“The last day of senior year, every one of us will be crying,” said Steve Fama. “I guarantee it.”
They have lived through several transitions in school leadership, which taught them to adapt to whatever situation they encounter, something that can only help them in college and moving forward. The transition to a more formalized grade 6–12 curriculum is a project that will continue after they graduate.

BUILDING FUTURES: FROM CAMPUS TO COLLEGE Sarah Ryan ’17 Sarah Ryan ’17, started at St. Mary’s in seventh grade. From Nahant, she went to elementary school at The Johnson School. Rather than moving to Swampscott middle school, she attended St. Mary’s Open House to explore her options. After talking to the Girls Hockey team program leaders and other girls on the team, she decided St. Mary’s was the school for her. Sarah went on to play Varsity Hockey beginning in her eighth grade year, winning the state championship.
St. Mary’s students know of and willingly sign up for the rigorous academic courses when they enroll at our Catholic, CollegePreparatory School. What is uncertain is just how far those studies will take them. We spoke to a few recent graduates who are currently in their college years, and while all of their experiences at St. Mary's were different, they all agree that they were well-prepared for their future upon graduation. 14 ST. MARY'S MAGAZINE
FALL/WINTER 2017
Sarah is now majoring in Exercise Science at the College of Charleston and feels St. Mary’s prepared her for college. The classes she took during her senior year, such as Mr. Doherty’s English class, were really helpful now that she “writes so many essays in college.” She also recalls “Ms. DeAmato’s class really prepared me as it was college level. I took anatomy and that class helped me know what I want to do.” Sarah is enjoying her time so far, and she chose her current school because it is a community that reminds her of the St. Mary’s family. “Since the beginning, it has always been about the St. Mary’s community.”
Marc Zampanti ’17 Recent graduate and Winthrop native, Marc Zampanti ’17 has easily made the transition from St. Mary’s student to his freshman year at Boston College. “Catholic school was the right fit for my brother and me (twin Mike Zampanti ’17), and I followed suit into college.” Marc was a student athlete at St. Mary’s where he played varsity hockey for three years, JV baseball his sophomore year and varsity lacrosse his senior year which was “a really fun experience”. Marc excelled in his schoolwork and graduated in the Top 10 of his senior class. During his time at St. Mary’s, Mark enrolled in as many AP classes as he could which he feels made it easier to adjust to the challenging level of college classes. One of Marc’s roommates is Mike Cerulli ’17, who was valedictorian of St. Mary’s class of 2017. They requested each other and it’s been a comfort for them knowing someone going into the school year. “I keep in touch
Sarah Ryan ’17
Marc Zampanti ’17
with all of my friends that I graduated with last year. Our grade was really close; we knew everyone and everyone was friends with one another.” Currently declared as Undecided, Marc is considering Computer Science and/or Math for his major. He is extremely interested in astronomy and applications for physics and math. Marc credits his teachers at St. Mary’s with preparing him for the rigor of college classes: Ms. Lorraine DeAmato as “her classes were like my college classes now,” as well as Mrs. Fran White, “her high level math classes really prepared me for college.” Also, Mrs. Erica O’Toole who was one of Mark’s “favorite teachers” for forensics, science classes and chemistry. “I learned a ton in her class and she was really helpful, as well.” In addition to his academics schedule at BC, Marc works as one of five student managers of the BC hockey team, where he logs 30 hours a week, filming and editing footage of the team. Marc would like to continue this path in his future and says, “It is pretty interesting to see how Computer Science ties into the job.”
Tyler Devine ’16 As is often the case with St. Mary’s students, there is a legacy that leads them to the hallowed halls. From Winthrop, Tyler’s cousins Robby Thompson ’09 and Devin Thompson ’12, attended St. Mary’s and liked it so much Tyler knew it would be a good fit for him as well. Tyler’s whole family attended Catholic schools; so he enrolled at St. Mary’s as soon as he could in seventh grade (at the time the Marian Division did not have a sixth grade), from Immaculate Conception in Revere. Tyler was an involved student in many clubs and sports
Tyler Devine ’16
such as National Honor Society, Rachel’s Challenge, basketball, golf, baseball and tennis. Tyler is currently at Salem State University where he is majoring in Nursing. He is grateful to Mr. Larry Doherty’s English class during his Senior Year with preparing him for college classes. He explains that the standard and length of which Mr. Doherty requested his papers to be are the same level of the papers that are required in college. “Mr. Doherty was my favorite teacher. His classes helped increase my vocabulary and he also helped a lot with SAT preparation.” It was Ms. Lorraine DeAmato’s Anatomy and AP Biology class, however that encouraged Tyler to pursue Nursing. Tyler notes, “When I had my Freshman Biology class, my exams were the same level as Ms. DeAmato’s. When I came back for the homecoming pep rally I told her how well she prepared me for college.“ Tyler is looking forward to sophomore year and beginning clinicals next semester. “I can’t wait to get into an actual hospital setting.” Tyler would tell St. Mary’s students today to try to get into as many AP classes as they can to prepare for the future. Tyler is still one of St. Mary’s biggest fans, “When I talk to families now, I always tell them to go to St. Mary’s. I went there for six years and I loved every single day of it.”
Maarouf Barry ’15 When you ask Maarouf where he is from, his response is, “That is a very interesting question.” Born in Washington D.C., Maarouf’s parents worked at the United Nations, so he has been travelling all his life and has lived in Europe, Africa, Canada and the U.S. His parents are from Guinea, ST.

West Africa and that is where Maarouf had been living for three years before he moved to Lynn in 2013. Maarouf wanted to pursue a higher education in the city of Boston, so he moved to the States where he began his high school career at St. Mary’s as a junior. “My parents encouraged me to pursue whatever I was looking for,” says Maarouf. He continues, “Growing up traveling was such an important part of our lifestyle, the location was not important as much as the experience. Boston was enticing to me as I was looking to pursue a good education and entrepreneurial ecosystem.” Maarouf chose St. Mary’s because he wanted to be in a school that could provide the best education, whether it was public or private. Maarouf believes his biggest learning experience from St. Mary’s was through two main events: the first was a fundraising effort with Mrs. Beverly Buckley, for which they sold valentines for the Mass Coalition for the Homeless. “The whole experience was learning that you have to engage with the community. My first year coming from Guinea was very different in terms of culture and mindset.” The second event was running for Senior Class President. Maarouf did not win, but he recalls it as one of the biggest learning moments as he realized his skill set for public speaking and that his “voice could make a difference.” Another favorite teacher was Mr. McDuffee and his religion class. As a Muslim, Maarouf had many conversations in class and says,“Mr. McDuffee allowed me to bring my perspective into class (and share it with my classmates) the differences between Islam and Christianity. I believe that was of great value to me.” 16 ST. MARY'S MAGAZINE

Maarouf has certainly taken advantage of the knowledge he received. Currently in his third year at Wentworth, Maarouf is obtaining his Bachelor of Science in Business Management with a focus on Entrepreneurship. Maarouf has been at the helm of two successful startups thus far. His main start up is called Eleis Farm, a non-profit company whose goal is to work with farmers in West Africa and teach them sustainable farming practices. The company guarantees purchase of their products and export to the States. Their main product is palm oil, which is 60% of what is in most products in the grocery store. They also exclusively hire women, empower them, and give them the opportunity to provide a stable source of income for their families. The second company Maarouf started in his freshman year, VariMold, molds concrete in order to generate complex curvatures for structures so buildings can have unique curves instead of having block and linear shapes. VariMold can also be applied to different sets of materials and industries, from architecture and interior design or even to mold a car out of modern fiber. Maarouf notes that while his two start-ups are polarizing in terms of industry and actual need for each, the core component of both products is empowering people, not setting them to a certain limit in terms of creativity and socio-economic growth. Maarouf feels it is part of his personality having grown up among very diverse cultures and has learned “there may be differences but in many ways there are a lot similarities that unite us.”

All three sisters have had college success. Bianca ’13 went to UNH where she graduated in 2017 with a BS in Nursing and Arianna ’16 is a Sophomore at St. Anselm’s where she is also studying Nursing.
Gianna is also participating in the dance program at BU, which she is grateful for as dance was “a big part” of her high school career. By Jamie Gigliotti
Currently a junior in college at Boston University, where she was accepted early decision, Gianna credits St. Mary’s with her readiness for college saying, “St. Mary’s really shaped me into being the college student that I am.” During her time at St. Mary’s, Gianna tried to put her best foot forward and challenged herself with honors and AP classes. “The teachers wanted me to do better so I took on those challenges and it helped make the process (of transitioning to college classes) a little bit smoother. All the tools I used in high school really helped me out.” Having attended elementary school at St. John’s in Boston’s North End, Gianna came to St. Mary’s in the seventh grade and graduated in the Top 10 of her class. Gianna credits her physics class at St. Mary’s as the reason she chose to major in Mechanical Engineering. Currently taking classes such as Thermo Dynamics and Mechanics of Material and Fluid Organization, she is looking toward her future and on the path to graduate in 2019. She also interned at GE Aviation in their Ohio plant and got to learn about aviation and jet engines. “It was ironic to intern there as I drove by the Lynn GE plant every day going to school.”

PUTTING CURRICULUM ON THE MAP St. Mary’s is moving forward with a process that started with a self-study and recommendations that came out of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) re-accreditation process, and continued with an academic dashboard geared to assess academic quality and accountability.
Next is an integrated curriculum study, which has as a primary goal the implementation of an aligned, rigorous, consistent grade 6–12 curriculum that lays out clear goals for students at the end of each academic year. Secondarily, the school is working on incorporating elements that support the goal, including expanding digital learning, 21st-century skills, enhanced professional development and educator evaluation. Coordinating these efforts is Christine Francis Ed.D., an educational consultant and former teacher, principal and curriculum specialist who is working with St. Mary’s administration, faculty and students. “This is a partnership,” Francis said. “We are working on areas that teachers identified as wanting to address. We are evaluating what they do well and what can be improved. My role is to give them the tools they can use to improve. I want them to feel engaged. They have been very open to it.” Francis started her work early in 2017, meeting with faculty and staff, observing classes and talking with groups of students. She came away from the experience impressed with how strongly students feel about the school and how dedicated the teachers are. “It has been heartwarming,” she said. “The students feel the teachers and leadership of the school are supportive of them and they have their backs. The teachers are committed to their students; that came through loud and clear.”

Francis said while St. Mary’s had already done a good amount of work on curriculum, all teachers were not using the same frameworks and weren’t necessarily confident that they were maximizing their efforts. “We wanted them to get a sense of what curriculum mapping should be accomplishing, beyond the syllabus,” Francis said. Curriculum mapping, Francis explained, includes content, skills, instructional processes—how the material should be taught, how it should be assessed and how to determine what students have learned. Not only is it important to align what is being taught in grades 6–12, but also across each grade, so that skills, goals and assessment are consistent for all students. Professional development is also critical to the success of this initiative. St. Mary’s Assistant Principal for Academics and Student Life Jade Henne put together a professional development plan for the year that includes teachers receiving more instruction on curriculum mapping and 21st-century learning. History department chair Mike Jalbert is leading the 21st-century skills work, which includes the 4Cs: Creativity and innovation, Critical thinking and problem solving, Communication and Collaboration. Principal Jim Ridley and Assistant Principal for Integrated Technology Artie Gribbins are also taking active roles in the curriculum project. Francis said other key elements in the Framework for 21st Century Learning are media, technology and life and career skills. “We need to be thinking about those skills and integrating them with the content that is taught,” she said.

INTEGRATED CURRICULUM STUDY
(C O N T I N U E D)
Digital learning is also being examined, as the school is in the fifth year of a 1:1 iPad initiative. Francis said it is important to be thinking about what the technology tools are, what do they want to accomplish, and how to best use the tools to do it. “How can we use the iPad to teach the skills we want to teach,” she said. Another area being incorporated into the integrated curriculum study is assessment, with a goal of creating common assessments for all courses and incorporating them into the curriculum maps.
“The people at St. Mary’s are eager to help students. You can feel their commitment. It is A great place to be.” – Christine Francis Ed.D., Education Consultant
Based on the input she received from teachers, students and administrators, Francis compiled a list of priorities for a three-year plan. The priorities include ensuring: clearly defined curriculum maps with clear assessments to determine mastery of concepts and skills; a robust STEM program; 21st-century instructional strategies that engage all learners; the use of digital tools to support student learning; enhanced professional development opportunities; and a strong educator evaluation program. "We want to give teachers the tools and help them best utilize those tools for the benefit of their students,” said Francis, a Cambridge native and Matignon High grad who earned her undergraduate and doctoral degrees from Boston College. In addition to working with individual schools and districts, Francis provides leadership training for the Massachusetts Association of School Superintendents. She is enjoying her work at St. Mary’s and knows that its positive results will carry well into the future of the school and its students. By Paul Halloran

MARIAN STUDENT PROFILE Christopher Lutchman ’23 It’s often said that young minds are the future. Starting in sixth grade, St. Mary’s has many young people building their future, and passions. President of seventh grade is Christopher Lutchman. Christopher was president in 6th grade as well, and currently participates in Student Council, the Robotics Club and Rachel’s Challenge. Christopher is an only child, and currently lives with his parents in Revere. In third grade, he received a recommendation from a friend about St. Mary’s and always knew he would go here for middle school and high school. Christopher went to Paul Revere grade school in Revere growing up, and says he likes how St. Mary’s is an open, friendly community with many welcoming faces. Ever since he was a kid, Christopher has always loved things like legos, puzzles and mathematics. When he came to St. Mary’s Marian Division, it made sense for him to join the Robotics Club. As a middle-school student, Christopher can help build the robots and go to all of the robotics competitions, but he has to wait until high school in order to operate the machine or participate as a “human player” in any events. Christopher considers robotics a passion of his, and has a lot of fun problem solving and meeting people with similar interests on the team. Along with Robotics Club, Christopher is a member of Rachel’s Challenge, an organization requiring students to get to school early on certain days, or stay later, and put in community service hours. As a member of student council, Christopher understands hard work and the importance of helping those around him. He enjoys giving aid to the people in his community, and sees volunteering as a key part of his life. Christopher has made many new friends at St. Mary’s, and admires the school’s one-on-one attitude toward students, saying it’s more interactive than pubic school. He continues to work hard every day whether it be designing circuit boards, running meetings or helping out in a soup kitchen. He looks forward to the challenges ahead, and can’t wait to continue his promising future in high school. By Emily Wood ’19

Currently, he is studying at a Franciscan University campus in Austria, where he will spend one semester. He is enrolled as a double major of Clinical Psychology and Catholic Theology. Besides traveling, Zach enjoys basketball and guitar, as well as spending time with friends.
LEGACY FAMILY PROFILE
The Stueve Family The Stueve family has done St. Mary’s proud. The five siblings, who graduated between 2008 and 2016, were a source of #SpartanPride for 12 years on campus and their successes have continued after high school. Danielle Stueve ’08 is the oldest of the Stueve clan. While at Cornell University majoring in human development, she decided she wanted to be a teacher. Upon graduating, she went to Salem State at night to earn her teaching degree, while working full-time. She also earned her Master’s of Education in Early Childhood Education at Lesley University. Danielle volunteered with The World Race; traveled to 12 countries, living on four continents, over 11 months doing ministry work. She currently works as a Kindergarten teacher in Hamilton-Wenham. Josh Stueve ’11 attended Salem State University after his St. Mary’s graduation. He majored in Athletic Training and became a certified athletic trainer. His current work is with Stueve Construction, his father’s company. He said, “I worked with dad throughout college and have continued to do so since earning my degree.” Josh recently went to Uganda for two weeks. “I went to visit a seminarian who had been working with our church. When he was ordained, he returned home to Uganda to say his first mass, and I went to be there for that.” Rachel Stueve ’12 attended Salve Regina University in Rhode Island where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She is currently working as a nurse at Lahey Hospital in Burlington in the Cardio Thoracic Unit. She traveled to
Sarah Stueve ’16 is the youngest sibling and just entered her sophomore year at Stonehill College where she is majoring in Graphic Design. Sarah is a dancer and an artist, loves working with animals and volunteering. The Stueves reflected on the ways that St. Mary’s contributed to their successes. Danielle says, “The mentorship of teachers in and out of classroom influenced me to take risks.” Rachel says, “I took a lot of the honors classes, so when I got to college I almost found my classes easier. The curriculum was new, but St. Mary’s helped me to learn to prioritize.” Zach elaborates, “St. Mary’s showed me how to be a student, and more so how to relate what I’m learning to the real world, and that has grown in college.” In reflecting on how St, Mary’s prepared him, Josh explains, “St. Mary’s gave me confidence.” All of the Stueves pointed to the importance of Campus Ministry events and their ability to explore their faith lives at school. They all built lasting friendships that they bring with them into their adult lives. The Stueve children expressed that their greatest influence was the foundation of their family rooted through their parents. Danielle says, “They both really illustrated our entire childhood what it means to love Christ with forgiveness.” Their roots, that were founded in their home, and grew through St. Mary’s halls, will always be intertwined. Danielle says, “As a family, we have helped each other and encouraged each other to stay on God’s plan for each other.” She quotes Proverbs 3: 5-6: “Trust in the lord with all your heart and lead not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him. He will make your path straight.” By Karalyn McGovern ’90

And now, he says, “Instead of just going into research myself, I’m inspiring others to want to do research work.”
Dr. John Oldham Dr. John Oldham holds his students to a high standard of academic rigor. He wants his students to learn a sense of responsibility and hopes that they will develop a sense of pride in their work. “My goal is to make the students take responsibility in their education and also to be more independent thinkers.” He wants his students to become more able to “take in information and then be able to use that information to solve problems.” He knows that these skills will serve them well in college and in life.
Dr. Oldham says, “I like helping my students come to an understanding about science. It’s important that students learn Chemistry in a hands-on way, so we do have frequent labs where they can practice what they have learned in class.” He also wants his students to be aware of “how Chemistry is used in our everyday lives, and to be able to hear stories in the news and to be able to think for themselves about how to respond to it and whether they agree.” He hopes that his students will say that he makes Chemistry fun.
In his third year teaching at St. Mary’s, Dr. Oldham brings a unique experience to his Chemistry students and the science department. Dr. Oldham was born and raised in Kentucky, and developed a love for science and engineering early on. His undergraduate studies took him to Terre Haute, Indiana where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering at RoseHulman Institute of Technology. From there, he went on to postgraduate work at Northeastern University ultimately earning a PhD in Chemical Engineering.
Dr. Oldham reflects on what makes St. Mary’s a special place to work and learn. He says, “When I first came here, I enjoyed what felt like a family atmosphere, the administration supported me; it felt like people looked out for each other. I felt early on that it was a supportive community. I also am encouraged by the plans for the new STEM building. I think it will offer an opportunity to have modern science classrooms. Allowing our students to work with equipment that might be used in college science classes will better help to prepare students for college success.”
“One of the reasons I picked Rose-Hulman was I remember seeing a student project done on trying to find a safer football helmet,” Dr. Oldham recalls, “It was interesting and cool that the students were learning about and working on useful topics.” Dr. Oldham himself has done some interesting and useful work. In graduate school, he worked on a project about understanding how plants make medicinal compounds. And he worked 28 ST. MARY'S MAGAZINE

The most important skill he hopes his students take from his lessons is to think for themselves and to be able to adapt. By Karalyn McGovern ’90

It’s a small school where you won’t get lost in the crowd. We teachers have an ability to build lasting relationships with our students. It’s a lively school with a lot of school spirit. There is a caring and concerned faculty. I think St. Mary’s has a bright future, and I hope to continue to be a part of it.” By Karalyn McGovern ’90

STUDENT PROFILE Eric Ma ’18 High school is a big deal for most kids. It means new teachers, new friends and choosing a college. Imagine all that, but with a new family, and new country. That’s what Eric Ma ’18 went through when choosing St. Mary’s, where he participates in Robotics, basketball and swimming. Eric grew up with his parents in Beijing, China, and started talking about becoming an international student during the 8th grade. China has very rigorous academics, and students there have barely any time for socializing or extra-curricular activities. Because of this, Eric and his parents agreed that he’d be better suited to a more hands-on, friendly environment like St. Mary’s. International students usually arrive two weeks before school begins every year, and go back home for summer break and holidays. Eric did this freshman year, during which he met his host family and went through orientation with the other new students. Eric had the same host family for the full portion of his freshman year and was moved to a new one during sophomore year. He’s lived with this family for three years now and knows it’ll be hard to say goodbye. During the first few months, Eric was sometimes homesick, but he never gave up and continued pushing through his clubs and academics. Now a senior, Eric says he appreciates the St. Mary’s community and likes that he has more time for clubs, sports and friends. Eric has participated in many activities here at St. Mary’s such as the International Club and Robotics Club. Math is his favorite subject, and building is something he’s always liked. Eric has also been a member of both the swim and basketball teams, and most-importantly made close, lifelong friends along the way. As a senior he’s begun looking at colleges, but hasn’t made any final decisions yet. He has a passion for math, though, and knows he’d like to do something in that field. Eric has been very pleased with his time at St. Mary’s and will always remember this period in his life as he moves forward to the next step. By Emily Wood ’19

STUDENT PROFILE Victoria Rindeiko ’19 Knowing who you are in life can sometimes be difficult. One student who definitely knows what she’s doing is 11th grader, Victoria Rindeiko. Victoria takes part in many extra curricular activities like Robotics, Campus Ministry, Hunger for Justice, SnowCAMPS and CAMPS. Victoria lives in Lynn with her parents and younger sister Yolanda, who’s currently in fourth grade at St. Pius V. School. The girls are part of five siblings, and the only two of them to be born in the United States. Both of Victoria’s parents are from Brazil and she has been to the country several times. Though English isn’t her first language, Victoria still takes AP English Language. Math and science are her favorite subjects. She’s also enrolled in AP Chemistry. When she first came to St. Mary’s freshman year, Victoria was drawn to both the art and theology departments. She loved the sense of community and relationships that came with theology. St. Mary’s offers many religious retreats and events, such as Cry Out and Campus Ministry. Victoria met a lot of new and inspiring people at these events and built lasting friendships with people she still talks to on a regular basis. When choosing an elective sophomore year, she picked art and enjoyed helping with St. Mary’s restoration of the Lynn Commons’ Nativity Scene. In her first year she also joined the Robotics Club and discovered a new passion for design, and more specifically, engineering. The first year she was a part of the Robotics Club, the annual competition was held at Boston University. The Robotics team was tasked with creating a robot that could go through obstacles and pick up “boulders” or foam balls. After working hard all year, Victoria and the Robotics Club won the BU Competition! In her sophomore year, the competition was at Bridgewater and the team won again. According to Victoria they weren’t as confident that second year and were both shocked and elated at how well they pulled together. Less than a year away from becoming a senior, Victoria has some colleges in mind. She’s looked at the Worcester Polytechnic Institute, MIT and Harvard. Whatever this strong young woman chooses, she plans to stick to her passion and hopefully major in something along the lines of mechanical engineering. She’s very pleased with her time at St. Mary’s and knows she’ll always carry what she’s learned here to college and to the rest of her bright future. By Emily Wood ’19

UPDATE FROM THE BOARD CHAIR
Dear Members of the St. Marys Community, As Building Futures, The Campaign for St. Mary’s, draws to a close, I would like to take a few moments to reflect on the history that set the stage for this unique moment in the life of our school. In 2002, an extraordinary gift was made by our legendary alumnus, William F. Connell ’55, that inspired Ours is to Build, a $10 campaign led by Monsignor Paul Garrity, Joan Luise Hill ’71 and Anthony DiCroce ’67. Through the Connell generosity and strategic leadership of the campaign committee, the building that we know today was constructed and has effectively met the needs of our students. In the midst of Ours is to Build construction and expanding our campus, St. Mary’s was granted independent school status, and named Anthony DiCroce ’67 the first Chair of the Board of Trustees in 2006. Tony was instrumental and the catalyst for many positive changes for St. Mary’s, including a new Head of School/Principal model in 2010, with the first Head of School named as Dr. Raymond Bastarache ’65. Tony was succeeded in this role by Jack B. King ’66 in 2008. Under Jack’s leadership, stakeholders of St. Mary’s participated in a strategic planning process, titled Vision 2015, that inspired necessary educational initiatives and infrastructure goals and culminated in a strategy to launch the Building Futures campaign. The accomplishments that we have witnessed since that time are impressive and speak to the commitment to advance our mission of educating young people of talent and faith. In 2013 we introduced an Academic Council, curriculum mapping and

enrollment optimization plan. Our partnerships with Catholic Schools Foundation, EduBoston and NEASC accreditation in 2014, are a few catalysts that accelerated further discovery and preparation to rollout 21st Century programs for our students. Many St. Mary’s alumni, parents and friends supported our aspirational vision through gifts to the campaign and as volunteers to strengthen our community. On December 31, we will officially close Building Futures, The Campaign for St. Mary’s. At the time of this writing, we have raised close to $20 million, and I anticipate reporting even greater numbers by year end. Our campus will soon look different as demolition and excavation begins as soon as late winter to early spring. In the fall of 2018, framing for the Gateway and STEM building will stand tall, and when school opens in 2019, the building will be accompanied by open courtyards, green space for outdoor classrooms and gathering space for our students, faculty and staff. If you have not yet pledged your commitment to Building Futures, I encourage you to consider a gift at this time. We welcome you to share in our mission of educating future generations of deserving students. With appreciation,

GATEWAY AND STEM BUILDING The Gateway and STEM Building will host a first class STEM program (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) as well as an inviting school entrance and space for student gatherings. St. Mary’s students will experience real-life situations learning how to problem solve, engage in scientific and technological exploration and bring bold new ideas to life.
EDUCATING FUTURE LEADERS: ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AND STUDENT LIFE The world is changing at a speed we have never known, with technological advancement leading the way. Our social, environmental and rapidly evolving global needs require differently educated leaders who will navigate challenges and inspire change. As history has shown, St. Mary’s students and faculty will be there, finding ways to contribute that matter. We are committed to keeping pace by offering 21st Century academic and extracurricular programs that prepare our students for the world, while firmly embracing St. Mary’s four pillars: Catholic, Excellence, Integrity, Respect.

Inspiration in Leadership Anthony DiCroce ’67 A single phone call made by Msgr. Paul Garrity some years ago to alumnus, Anthony (Tony) DiCroce ’67, started a wave of positive change for St. Mary’s. Although the two had never met, St. Mary’s then Pastor Msgr. Garrity knew of Tony’s business savvy and reached out to him for help. Together, they gathered a team that laid the groundwork and vision that still serves the St. Mary’s of today, some eleven years later. Tony DiCroce got his start in Lynn where he moved with his parents after they started a telephone answering service business. Tony attended public school before deciding to attend St. Mary’s for high school. His family belonged to St. Pius Parish and valued the religious instruction that St. Mary’s could provide, it was an easy decision. Upon graduation, Tony continued his education at the University of New Hampshire where he was an English major. Tony credits his teachers at St. Mary’s, the Sisters of St. Joseph, with giving him a strong foundation of learning and a great emphasis on writing, which helped him succeed in college and beyond. Upon graduation, Tony and his brother went into the family business and were able to continue to build upon the legacy begun by their parents. Tapping into that business expertise, Msgr. Garrity asked Tony for guidance with St. Mary’s for some long range, strategic planning and to review the school’s past success and challenges moving forward. Tony recalled, “What the school needed to do was to create a vision for the future.” Their first step was to find a group of talented volunteers that would participate in creating this vision and eventually transition to becoming a Board of Trustees. “Governance was the most important thing that the school was lacking at that point.” Soon thereafter, Tony was elected as the first Board Chair and the school was off and running. The initial group included alumni such as Joan Luise Hill ’71, Dr. Elizabeth A. Molloy Twomey ’52, Dr. Ray Bastarache ’65, T. Richard Cuffe ’63, Christina McCann ’56, Walter Gallo ’54 and other dedicated Alums. Once the core group of volunteers was in place, they needed to expand their efforts to increase the viability of the school. They presented a plan to the Archdiocese of Boston that included the incorporation of the school separately from the

Parish to make St. Mary’s an independent entity. Having accomplished these tasks, the Board was able to launch their first capital campaign for St. Mary’s, Ours is to Build, which famously raised enough money to build the William F. Connell ’55 Center that proudly stands today. Tony says, “Our benefactor William F. Connell ’55 was instrumental in the success of the Ours is to Build Campaign.” The group also created the first advancement office and hired the first Head of School, Dr. Raymond Bastarache ’65. For Tony, his legacy is that fateful meeting and strong friendship with his “mentor” Msgr. Garrity, and their work, which shaped St. Mary’s into what it is today. “Msgr. Garrity was the inspiration.” Tony enforces the notion, “What he and I did, we did not do it alone. It was a joint effort between the Board and a lot of dedicated Alums.” The relationships that were forged during that time are as strong as the actual buildings that were built. They were St. Mary’s strong! Honored at the 2004 Cardinal Cushing Awards Ceremony along with Joan Luise Hill ’71 for their work they did as co-chairs of the first capital campaign, Tony shares, “Joan and I are kindred spirits in many ways. We made a good team.” Another inspiration to Tony is Jack King ’66, who succeeded Tony as the second Board Chair. Tony noted Jack’s support during this transformative time, with constant phone calls, emails and inspiration as well as Jack’s willingness to come on board at St. Mary’s having only recently returned from his successful business career spanning several continents. And finally, Bill Mosakowski, for whom Tony has such admiration for all of the work he’s done for St. Mary’s in making the school a success.
“You can have lunch with any of the classes from the 1950s to the 1960s and how you are treated and how it will affect you will be interchangeable. St. Mary’s people are St. Mary’s people.” Tony has been an amazing benefactor to St. Mary’s over the years, and the DiCroce Family Alumni House proudly displays his name. Tony believes in the concept of “paying it forward” knowing the things he was able to do “clearly were a result of St. Mary’s.” St. Mary’s campus is about to change once again with the expansion of the new Gateway and STEM building through the Building Futures Campaign. “The campaign was led by Bill” Tony says, “he understands that change is an important part of our success at St. Mary’s.” Embrace change, it will make you great. Tony is still close with his classmates, Fred Brennan ’67 and Tom Cole ’67. “That’s a very rich background to come from to have both the gifts of friendship and Catholic education.” He continues, “What I have come to understand is that although the commitment of time and treasure is very important to the cause of Catholic education mission, it is the amazing lifelong friendships I have made over the years in pursuit of that mission that make me truly blessed.” by Jamie Gigliotti
James Baldini ’66 Trustee James Baldini ’66, wears his Lynn roots as a badge of honor “I am from Lynn and I support Lynn.” Raised in the “Brickyard” area of the city, Jim attended public school before coming to St. Mary’s “to play sports.” While the Sisters of St. Joseph, challenged Jim in the classroom, his friendships made in those classrooms remain a constant in his life. Friends, James Moore ’62, with whom Jim goes “back to the beginning,” Robert O’Meara ’66, Jack King ’66, Robert O’Neil ’66 and Christopher Joyce ’66, Jim mentions as some of those classmates he remembers dearly. He even still enjoys an occasional lunch with those friends back in the Lynn neighborhood where they all met.
Jim continued his studies at the University of New Hampshire where he earned his degree in Economics. Jim went on to have great success across his various business ventures which allows him to support many philanthropic organizations, such as UNH, Agganis Foundation, war veterans and St. Mary’s. Jim’s support for St. Mary’s and STEM specifically comes from his desire to help students at St. Mary’s move up the economic ladder, “The opportunity in the economy is in jobs where STEM is very important.” Jim continues, “There is said to be eight million jobs that are needed or are going to be needed in the next 12 months that require STEM training. Those who have STEM training from a two or four year college will be able to get great jobs and move up the economic ladder and improve their lives and their families’ lives.” Jim would counsel the students at St. Mary’s to “know what you want to be and pursue that as fast as you can.” He would encourage them to “Figure it our early and pursue it. Study it in college, do internships in that area and try to be the best you can be in any profession that you go into.” Jim is pleased that St. Mary’s campus and quality of education reflects the needs of the community, “Diversity is key. We are lucky to have leadership that our students can look up to.” Jim’s hope for St. Mary’s is that the quality of education will continue to improve and enrollment will continue to rise so St. Mary’s can continue to support “the children of Lynn.” by Jamie Gigliotti

Honoring Fr. Edwin Leahy, Headmaster at St. Benedict’s Preparatory School
Wednesday, April 11, 2018 Peabody Essex Museum, Salem, MA For the past three decades, the Benedictine monk, Fr. Edwin Leahy has guided St. Benedict’s Preparatory School, one of the few Catholic schools remaining in the city of Newark, NJ. In a community roiled by social unrest, Fr. Ed has been both the spiritual leader and inspirational Headmaster at the school, which is located on the grounds of the Monastery in the heart of city. As a graduate of the high school in the early 60’s, he returned later in life to lead the revival and redirection of his alma mater to serve those most at-risk of being left behind in a scarred economic environment. Fr. Ed’s story will inspire all who value Catholic education and will help us to see the power and wonder of how communities supporting Catholic schools can work together to improve the lives of others.
Sponsorships and tickets are now available for purchase! We hope you will join us to enjoy this long-standing event. Learn more about Fr. Leahy’s story and vocational work and make your commitment to Cushing now at stmatryslynn.com/cushing.

They credit the St. Mary’s family for being there when they needed it the most. To honor and memorialize their son, the Reddys formed the Patrick Reddy Foundation, which supports a wide variety of youth sports and other activities.

STUDENT PROFILE
Zachary Cummings ’20 Strength comes in many forms and after talking with Zack and his mother, Beth, it is clear that the Cummings family is an example of strength and courage that is truly remarkable and inspirational. Zachary Cummings got his start at St. Mary’s as a freshman in 2016. After attending public school in Saugus, Zack attended middle school at St. Mary’s in Melrose for grades six through eight. After knowing a friend who had switched the year before, they were encouraged to attend an Open House at St. Mary’s and the family was impressed. Followed by a shadow day, Zack decided St. Mary’s was the place for him, enrolled and was selected as a member of the Scholar’s Program. Zack’s sister Molly’s interest was also piqued, and asked if she could shadow as well. “She loved it.” Beth says, especially the expanded sports offering for middle school students and the ability for Molly to play JV volleyball in the 7th grade. Molly is now a thriving eighth grader and the Vice President of the National Jr. Honor Society. After a successful start to a new school for both Zack and Molly, the Cummings Family faced an unexpected setback when Zack received a diagnosis of High Risk B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (ALL) in January of 2017, just four months into the start of his high school career. Beth shares, “The support of St. Mary’s has been

amazing, from the sports to the educational support. As if I didn’t love the school enough before, I am completely sold and tell everyone to send their kids to St. Mary’s.” Working closely with Mr. Ridley, the school was able to arrange all of Zack’s classes to be in the morning so he can rest as needed and continue with his treatment. A dedicated student, Zack has been able to keep up with all of his class work, with the help of the flexible schedule and open communication with his teachers. Zack is currently in clinical remission, which Beth explains means that Zack’s treatment plan is working so they will continue the path, which involves treatment twice a week, and will go into maintenance phase next year. Through it all, the support that Zack has received from the school and friends has been phenomenal. The football team even had practice jerseys made with Zack’s number 99 emblazoned on the back. Zack would like to share, “Thank you to everyone for everything you have done for me. From the minute I was diagnosed I had people knocking at my door just to ask if I was ok and to be with me in the hospital and I just wanted to say thanks. The support I feel is amazing and I could not ask for more from anybody.” Beth supports that notion, “The friends that he has made at St. Mary’s have been in contact with me and are even supportive of Molly at school. They are always texting him and telling him they miss him. We made the right choice with St. Mary’s. It’s really just a wonderful, supportive environment.” By Jamie Gigliotti

THANK YOU FOR HELPING US TO BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR THE FUTURE! On behalf of the administration, faculty, staff and Board of Trustees, I offer a sincere and heartfelt thank you for all that you do to ensure the continued success of St. Mary’s. It is with tremendous gratitude that I share with you our fiscal year 2017 Annual Report. Your generosity allows us to stay true to our mission to educate young men and women of talent and faith as we work toward exceeding our $15 million goal for the Building Futures Campaign. Such thoughtful benevolence sustains us in our efforts to keep tuition affordable, increase opportunities for students and provide vital resources that will help the next generation of thinkers and leaders. Our alumni involvement, both in giving and events, continues to grow. For fiscal year 2017 we raised $1.6 million in Annual Fund support, increasing overall giving increased by 14%. Annual fund giving is critical to our vitality providing an additional layer of funding that we are able to apply across a variety of categories; from Arts to Athletics, STEM to Formation, Scholarships and Financial Aid. These resources help the students of St. Mary’s reach their potential in athletic and artistic excellence. Your gifts empower our staff and faculty to prepare our students for college and allow them opportunities in service and faith formation. All of these areas would not be as successful without your help and generosity. Our Building Futures Campaign has reached close to $20 Million. Every donation makes a difference and these funds will allow improvements to the facilities and programs as well as increases to the scholarship endowments. This campaign and your support has allowed us to improve our resources and financial assistance for students who would otherwise not be able to attend St. Mary’s. Thank you again for all you do to support St. Mary’s!
