Dear Friends:

Welcome to Justinian XLII!

St. Francis High School is a special place. The campus is beautiful, our legacy is rich, and our academics are stellar. What makes St. Francis truly special, however, are our students. They come from near and far, have different gifts and interests, and come together to form a brotherhood that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.

I am grateful to our co-chairs, Tim and Kelly Farrell, Peter ’96 and Heidi Suffoletto, and John and JoAnn Tebeau, for their extraordinary hard work and dedication to make this year’s Justinian a success. Their sons are thriving at St. Francis and each couple can attest to how St. Francis has not only changed their sons and families but how St. Francis has brought so many families together. That is why they chose tonight’s theme, “Building Our Community Together.” They appreciate the importance of the St. Francis Brotherhood and want others to have that same experience.

Like our co-chairs, you believe in the young men of St. Francis High School. Your support this evening helps fund our tuition assistance program which provides financial aid to nearly 80% of our students. For almost a century we have formed Renaissance Men who we send out into the world committed to the Franciscan values of excellence, respect, humility, and brotherhood. With your help we look forward to doing the same for the next 100 years. Today’s world needs more St. Francis gentlemen!

Thanks to all who made this evening possible, especially Kate Taggart and the Office of Institutional Advancement. Thank you to all our students, faculty, staff, parents, alumni, alumni parents, and friends of St. Francis who hosted parties, volunteered, or donated to make this evening special. We are a better community and a stronger brotherhood because of each of you!
