SPEAKING-Graham Rutherford

athering together as a faculty and staff, after school on September 8th for the dedication of the statue of Christ the Redeemer, with Bishop Vasa on hand to consecrate the structure and bless the employees, we stood together in our matching 50th anniversary shirts, happy to share a moment that tied us to the school’s first day and looks forward to the next fifty years. A measuring stick of such length can tell us much about where we are now, how far we have come, and how deep is our legacy. Standing in the sun, admiring the work of Avid Valentin and his maintenance crew, the feelings ran deep that we are here to serve students, help them grow as individuals, and help develop their faith and community roles. Stewards for such responsibility, we do not take this task lightly; our school has been advanced by the efforts of many workers, volunteers, and benefactors. We continue that path further this year with our completed women’s locker room in the gym and the submitting of plans for our new science building, with three classrooms, to the county for a Spring time start. This will allow us to expand to a STEM program, which emphasizes Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, and continue to lead in this area of traditional strength.

Academics do not get the chance to compete as do Athletics, so it is not accidental that our sports are sometimes better known locally, but a look at college acceptances and majors chosen shows that we have a championship record in learning. Preparing students for college remains our academic purpose, for whatever level a student aspires to achieve and is willing to work towards.

Thousands of our students have matriculated from universities close and far, at home and abroad. We send them out with great hope and expectation; we, along with their families celebrate their achievements and remain in support of them during times of struggle beyond school years, for this is a family extension, a community that they will forever be part of and that they help define. Our faith keeps us strong in this mission, we hope their faith will be shared with others and that they will raise children who will do the same.

With three generations now having lived this experience, we celebrate together. Happy Fiftieth! Happy Future!

Graham Rutherford, Principal

P RESI DENT'S MESSAGE-Laura M. Held

I

n early September, Cardinal Newman High School celebrated our official 50th year of educating students in Sonoma County. This “birthday celebration” is particularly important and memorable as we continue the advancement and excitement for the vision of a Catholic co-educational college prep environment for our young women and men.

The second momentous event for our school community is the establishment of our 2014-2017 Cardinal Newman High School Strategic Plan. Guided by the four key planning areas of Mission and Catholic Identity, Governance and Leadership, Academic Excellence and Operational Vitality, the Board of Directors and School Leadership have laid the foundation and commitment to outstanding achievement which ensures that all students will advance their learning in areas of faith formation, academic and co-curricular programs.

In particular I am most pleased to announce our 20142015 strategic plan priorities for our Cardinal Newman students: •Catholic Identity: we will continue to ensure that students, faculty and staff are engaged in the planning and implementation for offering dynamic opportunities to experience prayer, the Eucharist, liturgy and participate in vibrant retreats and Christian service learning opportunities •1:1 Technology Program: Beginning August 2015, all students, faculty and staff will bring their own device (BYOD) to school. We recognize that we are changing the way teachers teach, interact with our students and families as well as recognizing the changes in how students engage, learn and approach their course material. The 1:1 program will put powerful technology into the hands of our students and will allow them to increase their productivity, engagement, enhance communication and collaboration and will give them limitless possibilities for creative expression.

Our team of school leaders are working to identify the list of acceptable tablets and laptop options for student use next fall. We will be updating you on this list of requirements in December 2014 and January 2015 so that you can plan for the purchase of your son and/or daughter’s device. Additionally we will remain in regular communication regarding the need for software, and digital textbook requirements for this next academic year.

Fall 2015. Our new state-of-the-art Biology, Chemistry and Physics classrooms will support our curricular planning for the goal of implementing new course offerings in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math •Cardinal Newman Academic Support Center: The mission of our new Academic Support Center, opening in August 2015, will be to provide the support needed for all students with diverse learning needs in order to be successful learners in our community.

The center will be staffed with full time personnel who have educational therapist certification and/or educational specialist credentials. The new staff will work with students individually and in small groups and they will assist faculty in integrating teaching strategies beneficial to students with diverse learning needs.

•Marketing & Branding Cardinal Newman High School: Over the next month we will introduce our new Admission materials creating the branding message, Touching Hearts and Winning Minds. John Henry Cardinal Newman spoke of the need to teach, inspire and cultivate an excitement for students to grow in faith, learning and service. Cor ad cor loquitur (heart speaks to heart) is prominently displayed on our Cardinal Newman Athletic Convocation Center wall reminding our community of the love and dynamic beauty that God has for each of us. Over the course of these next months, we look forward to sharing the new marketing approach with you.

•New Science Building & implementation of STEM Education: Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Ernest L & Ruth W Finley Foundation, we have secured funding allowing for the construction of a new 3 classroom Science Building opening With great excitement we will continue to implement these initial planning priorities knowing that our success will further the excellent Cardinal Newman learning experience for your son and/or daughter(s).

Sincerely,

Laura M. Held President

CAMPUS IMPROVEMENTS

Cardinal Newman Women’s Locker Room Opens

W

e are pleased to dedicate the new Women’s Locker Room in loving memory of Kathleen Wright, Urusline High School graduate from the class of 1967. Thank you Paul V. Wright for making a lead donation to this campaign.

The campaign for a new Women’s Locker Room began in the fall of the 2013-14 school year. The facility honors the legacy of the past Ursuline High School alumnae, student athletes and their greatest moments, teams and coaches. Their team pennants have been brought down from the old Ursuline High School Gym and placed on the walls of the Cardinal Newman Gym as a lasting memory of their accomplishments.

With the goal to raise $170,000 by the end of last school year for a new women’s locker room, students, teachers, parents and friends came together to support several different fund raisers. The first event was the student run Jog-A-Thon where over $70,000 was raised. At last year’s Spring Legacy Gala, parents and benefactors raised their paddles for the Final Paddle Fund a Need which raised over $16,000. The Ursuline Crab Feed also supported ‘Fund A Need’ bringing in over $2,500 to the campaign. Many almuns from both Ursuline and Cardinal Newman joined efforts to raise the remaining funds which allowed the transformation of our old snack bar and coaches room to the new Women’s Locker Room. The dedication plaque outside the new facility honors all who contributed.

The new locker room opened its doors in the fall of 2014 to our young women for use during their competitive sport season and PE classes.

ardinal Newman’s counseling department has experienced a great deal of change over our school’s 50-year history, and especially in the last few years. By welcoming the future we combine insights gained from the past to fully implement a comprehensive counseling program.

What hasn’t changed at Cardinal Newman in the counseling department is our commitment and goal to prepare every CN student to be a mature individual academically, personally, and socially; prepared for higher education.

Technology is another area that has certainly seen a great deal of change in counseling. One of the tools that Cardinal Newman counselors use is Naviance Family Connection.

Naviance is a web-based software program that every student, parent and teacher has access to for help with college decisionmaking, college choice and career planning. Students respond enthusiastically as they single out “the best fit” college.

Personal and social development is taking place as close to 100 students take leadership with their teachers and counselors in the Safe School Ambassador program. SSA training day was held in October with student leaders developing the interpersonal skills necessary for creating and promoting a positive, caring school community.

Another component of Cardinal Newman’s counseling department is helping students prepare for the appropriate college admissions tests

and understanding the institutional requirements necessary for college entrance. Cardinal Newman students take the EXPLORE, ASPIRE, and the PSAT on school days. Counselors help plan a student’s testing schedule, and interpret test scores in context of a student’s personal college entrance goals. Data from standardized tests help provide information for course selection, and planning for college majors and careers. Currently students are preparing for change with the announcement of the redesign of the SAT. To ensure Cardinal Newman students and parents are informed of the College Board changes to the SAT, Cardinal Newman’s Counseling department hosted an evening panel presentation on November 10th on the Cardinal Newman campus.

Our graduating class is gearing up for big change in their personal lives as they steadily complete college applications to pursue their dreams and for life after high school.

Close to 100-college admission representatives visit our campus each year to meet with students.

Seniors will be receiving acceptance notifications this Spring and they will come into the counseling office to list their choice of college on the white brag board. It’s a ritual that celebrates and underscores the direct interactions between Cardinal Newman Counseling and students that never changes.

We are pleased to announce the nominees for the 2015 John Henry Newman Award Sr. Stephanie Wilson, OSU and Mr. Michael Truesdell

T H E J O H N H E N RY N E W M A N AWA R D , the highest award given by the Cardinal Newman community, acknowledges an alum and a community member who follow Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman’s example and inspire us by their: •Lasting and meaningful service to Ursuline & Cardinal Newman High Schools and the greater community, •Examples of Christian character, •Gifts of talent, treasure and time in the form of dedication to the mission of Catholic education.

They join a distinguished list of alums and community members that have made a difference at Cardinal Newman and have inspired us to follow their lead. Just as Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman and St. Angela Merici advanced education of the young in order to prepare them for the world, so have this year’s two nominees.

MR . MI CHAEL T RUESDELL

Mike Truesdell came to Cardinal Newman in 2004 as the school’s first President. He soon defined the job by his faith, work ethic, service, and gentlemanly manner. Taking the Board’s hope that a new model would strengthen and invigorate our school community, he began applying the new President-Principal model by teaching its purpose and explaining its methods. He made sure that we understood what we were trying to do and then, that we were doing it. Mike challenged us to go from good to great, to build and to reinforce our education with new methods, new buildings, and a new attitude. His optimism and encouragement was infectious; we caught on and made changes, as the school experienced a renaissance.

In the 7th year, in the midst of other plans, a sudden and unexpected crisis arrived; Ursuline High School announced its closure at the end of the year and three grades of girls needed to be brought into Cardinal Newman. We became co-ed to be inclusive, to preserve Catholic secondary education in our area for all, and this was done by Mike with grace and care. For three years, he labored to ensure the transition would preserve Cardinal Newman and include the former Ursuline students, while forging a new coeducational environment of excellence and equality. Without him, this event would not have been resolved as well. For that, he will always have our gratitude. His continued support of the …our best, Cooperative Campaign; the AMJHN Truesdell Family Faculty Endowment; and the FUSE program to name just a few, led our community by example.

He was unflappable and available, all at the same time, a positive leader dealing with a huge challenge, never losing sight of our goals.

Mike was also deeply involved with the Board of Catholic Charities, Rotary, and his parish of St. Anthony’s in Novato. He was often the first one here, and the last one to head home. His graciousness relaxed many and he modeled for students, teachers, staff, and parents, how we should all treat each other. For new families he was the face of CN, a wise man who seemed to know how everything here worked. There were even those who were sure he had been a CN student, so ingrained was he in our culture. He advanced the professional nature of our school, following the fine example of our patron, leading a school community with dedication and hard work, set high standards of work ethic and commitment and inspired many to do the same.

While he was missed greatly last year, we celebrate nine years of service to our school that opened a new era. We applaud his work and hope that he is appreciated by the community of St. John school in Toledo, Ohio, who we know are very fortunate to have him. His lasting mark on Cardinal Newman is not only seen on the campus grounds, but in the character of our graduates. We are most grateful.

SR. STEPHANIE WILSON, OSU

Sr. Stephanie has been devoted to Catholic education. Her partnership with Cardinal Newman as the President and CEO of the Angela Merici John Henry Newman Foundation, which was established for the benefit of Catholic secondary education in Sonoma County, was key to the success of the Cooperative Campaign. As a founding member of the Foundation Board, her energy and enthusiasm for the campaign inspired us as she made outreach in the community and shared the best of Ursuline. Her guidance towards securing a leadership gift for the new Science Building on the Cardinal Newman campus will help shape Cardinal Newman’s future, moving us from good to great! Sr. Stephanie is a ‘day-star’ that ‘glimmers bright’ in our community.

KAT E CONNELL

English Department

Language Department

After spending time working as a newspaper, marketing, and freelance writer, Bianca Licata decided that she wanted to pursue something that fulfilled her in a different way. She knew that she loved meeting new people, and participating in the exchange of ideas. At first she decided to become a social justice attorney, and took the LSATs. But after spending some time with Cal Lawyers to-be, she decided it wasn't her scene. So, she reflected: She had worked with kids in a few different settings and had loved it. After talking with some teachers, she felt that working with children was indeed one of the greatest careers one could pursue. Today, her goal as an educator is to push students to question, explore, evaluate and communicate their ideas about the world. Bianca is a recent graduate of USF's MA in Education and Teacher Credentialing program. She received her BA in English from UCSB.

Mrs. Connell joined the Cardinal Newman faculty in the Fall of 2014, where she teaches American Sign Language II. She has a B.A. in Human Development and currently is in a Masters of Education Program through University of San Francisco. Kate has over twenty years experience using ASL and has been an active part in the d/Deaf community for approximately five years. Prior to joining Cardinal Newman's faculty she has taught developmentally disabled adults American Sign Language and has worked directly with d/Deaf youth in a residential program. American Sign Language has been a love of Kate's for many years. She is affiliated with Big Brothers Big Sisters of the North Bay and has been a Mentor for over ten years through their program. In her free time she enjoys spending time with her two young sons and her husband. She also is an avid Geocacher. Kate is very excited to be a part of the Cardinal Newman community!

Pilgrimage of Faith

This year's freshman retreat theme centered on the theme of pilgrimage.

The aim of the retreat was to help the freshmen understand that their high school experience, and life itself, is a pilgrimage; a journey during which they experience the presence of God and the support of family and friends. The actual journey to Cloverleaf Ranch also serves as an opportunity to strengthen the friendship and camaraderie of the class.

The students gathered at the Cardinal Newman ACC with their pilgrimage group led by, in most cases, the same Link Crew leaders from freshmen orientation. The Link Crew, trained by Mrs. Alice Meyer, did an outstanding job in providing the freshmen with quality group facilitation. Faculty members also joined the groups and spent time getting to know their students outside the classroom.

Senior Campus Ministry class students helped prepare the day’s activities and served as peer leaders during the retreat. Chaplain Fr. Raul Lemus celebrated the opening mass taking time at the end to bless the students as they began their pilgrimage.

Groups posed for photos as they began their trek through our neighbors, the Sieberts, vineyards. Soon the freshmen reached their destination of Cloverleaf Ranch, owned by Class of 2000 alumna, Shawna DeGrange.

The freshmen spent the morning enjoying the outdoors as they played games, spent time in reflection and shared in small groups to get to know each other better. The hungry pilgrims were welcomed back to Cardinal Newman with a lunch from Homerun Pizza served by parent volunteers.

The retreat culminated in group presentations reflecting their retreat experience and a closing presentation by alum, Patrick McDonell. All in all, the freshmen began their high school journey with a fun day of bonding and shared experience.

Knots: Team Building, Leadership

Training & Theological Reflections

The Sophomore Class of 2016 followed tradition this September as they headed west to Alliance Redwoods Conference Grounds for their class retreat. The theme of "knots" reflects the main ropes course activities and focuses on the ties they make in high school, the challenges they each face and how they can build up and rely on each other in order to grow in faith and character. Experienced naturalists from Alliance Redwoods’ staff guided the students through both high and low ropes course elements. Cardinal Newman faculty and staff enjoyed the day outdoors getting to know their students outside the classroom. Senior campus ministry leaders helped lead retreat activities and the closing prayer service. Surrounded by the beautiful landscape and redwoods of Occidental, the students were truly able to take a day to be in fellowship and community, relax, play and pray together.

Students Editing Film

By Chris Urasaki Just one of the many Senior CBSL projects going on right now!

L

ast year I started to work towards starting a film workshop at a Boys and Girls center in my town but the project never really got going.

Over the summer of 2014, I heard my old elementary school, St. John’s in Healdsburg, was having trouble finding a music teacher and I suggested taking up the period by starting a film class for the 7th and 8th grade.

They accepted and I now teach there once a week on Thursdays.

Just recently the class finished their first round of group film productions.

Broken into groups of four, the classes planned, shot and edited their own 30-second shorts over the course of six weeks. By the end of the year, they will finish at least 3 more projects, gradually increasing in difficulty and length.

The hardest part about the project so far has been learning how to teach and how to control the classroom. I have had to come up with lessons and projects from scratch and I won’t know how well they’ll work until I try them. The junior high kids can be rowdy at times but the fact that they

seem interested and enthusiastic in the project makes it a lot easier and is one of the more rewarding aspects of the work. Seeing the students enjoy the class and get progressively better at something I love is personally very rewarding.

My class is just that, a class. We have our premieres during class time and thankfully St. John has allowed us to have some basic film equipment at our disposal for the duration of the class so we don’t have a need for fundraisers. The same goes for underclass students volunteering; it’s a pretty self contained system.

Service Fair

O

ur local community agencies were represented at our annual Community-Based Service Learning Fair on Aug 25th in Cardinal Newman’s Athletic Convocation Center. All Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior students were able to attend with their Religion Class.

We are grateful to all the non-profit attendees for taking time out of their busy schedules to participate and to build relationship with our students.

Thank you to Catholic Charities Restyle Market, Catholic Restorative Justice, NAMI (National Alliance for Mental Illness), The Volunteer Center of Sonoma County, Extended Childcare, Sonoma County Animal Services, Villa-Capri at Varenna, LoveManifest, Memorial Hospice, Redwood Gospel Mission, Community Support Network, Schulz Museum, Catholic Cemeteries, CalServes, Canines for Independence, Children's Museum of Sonoma County, Special Olympics, Sonoma County Family Y, Operation Goals, Threads for Teens, Free to Be, Mark West Charter School, ASAP at the Cove, and Archbishop Hanna High School for your participation. We appreciate your willingness to partner with us to encourage our students to have a strong community service ethic that will last a lifetime.

2014 JOG-A-THON

It’s not too late to support your favorite jogger or make a tax-deductible gift in support of our new, state-of-the-art science equipment for our new science building!

Much progress has been made on our new state-of-the-art Science Building Project, as the final plans have been submitted. We anticipate breaking ground after the first of the year, with a Fall 2015 completion date. Students have taken a vested interest in this project with their participation in the Jog-A-Thon which was held on Wednesday, October 1st. Students circled the track and are raising money for new science equipment. Show your support and encouragement by making a gift today! Thank you to all who so generously support Cardinal Newman High School.

Father/Son Mass and BBQ

T

he annual Father/Son Mass & Barbecue was held on Sunday, September 28, 2014. This is a special day for fathers and sons, grandfathers, and uncles to spend time with each other. Father Raul began the day with a special Mass. Following Mass, the participants split into groups, rotating between sports; volleyball, baseball and flag football.

It’s always fun to watch the dads and sons playing together as teammates. The very “competitive” sports day ended with a delicious barbecue.

JUNIOR RING

“From Underclassmen to Upperclassmen”

• Athletic Achievement

T

he Junior Ring Ceremony is celebrated each year to recognize the junior class and their achievement of becoming upperclassmen. This year, on October 17th, the junior students, along with their families, faculty and peers, gathered to recognize this important stepping stone in their journey through high school. As a symbol of their unity as a class, each student received a St. Christopher pin and a class ring (if purchased). The theme chosen by the student leadership was “Encourage the Dream of 2016”. This theme tied into the scripture verse from 1 Thessalonians 5:11 that Father Raul used during the ceremony which says, “Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up.” This verse reminds the juniors of their role as leaders of our school to encourage and build up in Christ those inside the Cardinal Newman community as well as those outside. The ring ceremony will be

a reminder of the unity and responsibility the class shares as they journey through these next two years of high school together.

HOMECOMING & ASB

H

omecoming is a time for alumni to return to their school and show their spirit, reconnect with old friends and teachers, and root their team to victory! In honor of this tradition, we examined the ladies in our senior class and determined who should represent our school at the game.

The homecoming queen nominees are those young women who embody the spirit of Cardinal Newman: school spirit, a fun-loving attitude, charisma, and service. The 2014 homecoming nominees were elected through anonymous voting conducted by each student at Cardinal Newman. Congratulations to Amarica Rafanelli, Katie Greenan, Alex Gutierrez, Annie Swenson-Aguirre, Yuki Ma, Tina Lin, Megan Ryan, Kylie Kiech, and Julia Bertolero.

The princesses were accompanied by their fathers and chauffeured onto the field in convertibles during halftime of the varsity football game against Ukiah High School. The student body voted in anonymous ballot boxes for the Queen after the Homecoming Rally. The young woman who was elected Homecoming Queen for 2014 is Alex Gutierrez.

ASB student leaders planned for months to put on a successful Homecoming Dance. On October 25th, “Haunted Homecoming” whisked our students away to fun music featuring DJ Fabian, various card tables with an assortment of Halloween candy, a photo booth, and a lounge area to watch a movie. An amazing time was had by all, faculty and students alike!

Throughout the Fall ASB hosted various events to help promote school camaraderie such as movie nights and Dancing with the Teachers. In addition, Cardinal Newman High School participated in Battle of the Fans. Battle of the Fans is an effort to encourage sportsmanship from the fans at the various sporting events throughout all the NBL and SCL schools.

ADMISSIONS NEWS Preview Day

T

here have been so many exciting things to share about Cardinal Newman; people are beginning to take a closer look. Through our marketing efforts, we enjoyed the company of over 200 eighth grade visitors at our “Preview Day” event. This is the largest group to attend on record.

Cardinal Newman Senior and Recording Artist Sarah Defors, kicked off the morning with a performance of an original song from her debut album. Her message about self belief, following your heart, and overcoming fears connected to the rising high school students. You can follow Sarah Defors on Facebook and Twitter to be a part of the kick-start effort to promote her album when it is released.

Our young visitors heard from student panels, organized with help from Mrs. Tracy Williams and Mr. Matt Vukicevich. Their presentation included information about student life, the Naviance program used in our Counseling Office, and other student support.

Mr. McKevitt, Mr. Maul, and Mr. Castor hosted interactive language and artistic games during the day, which were fun and informative.

Mr. Acevedo and Mrs. Thompson, along with the support of over 20 dance students gave demonstrations to promote the performing arts.

The teachers in our Science Department put on a great show. TJ McMahon (Physics), suffered minor burns to the forehead, which he does every year.

Thank you to John Franchetti, CN Class of ’85 of Rosso’s Pizzeria for baking their delicious pizzas, which were served to our guests.

After lunch, the visitors received gift bags and said their good-byes as we wished them well for the rest of their 8th grade year.

WELCOME FROM LINK CREW! Orientation

O

nce again the year began with a warm welcome to our freshmen students at orientation. The Link Crew, organized and led by Theology instructor Alice Meyer (Ursuline class of ’94), spent their day helping freshmen get to know each other, the school, and what being a part of Cardinal Newman is all about.

Link Crew puts the philosophy of the Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman into practice. Newman wrote about our responsibility to recognize the bond of connection among people. The Link Crew took their time working with small groups of new students in ice-breaker games and fun activities.

This year, Mrs. Williams, freshman counselor, took a roll in the orientation. She arranged presentations which included student and parent panels, integrating a character-building element into the program.

Not only do we want each student to know how to be successful academically and socially, but to embrace the expectation each Cardinal Newman student has in the community.

Thank you Link Crew, Mrs. Meyer and Mrs. Williams for the great care you have shown to enhance the high school experience of these young Cardinal Newman students. We believe in the class of 2018 and wish them all the very best.

academic achievement Newman Oxford Scholar Program:

W

ith the centenary of WWI coming at the start of this school year, our Oxford Scholars are looking back to that time one hundred years ago and reflecting on the then and now experience. Picking a topic of their choice, each is trying to show an understanding of change and consequences of the great conflict. Their papers are due to be submitted by 11am on November 11th, just as the Armistice that suspended the fighting took place in 1918. They will be posted online for review and they will defend their thesis at a dinner gathering in our ACC on Tuesday November 18th. The varying topics show how a significant event can be understood many years later and be impactful.

This year’s scholars are: Paige Amormino, Julia Bertolero, Angela Chang, Sarah DeFors, Alex Dennen, Nick Drake, Grace Forsell, London Freeman, Spencer Jacobs, Adam Kagel, Sydney Laron, Sarah McNamara, Cutler Price, Maggie Rei, Gunnar Walker, and Maddie Wilson.

N

ewman Oxford Scholars strive to be thought leaders in the world.

Like Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman, they are passionate about the world of ideas. They are eager to help solve real-world challenges involving poverty and injustice.

John Henry Newman, during his years at Oxford University, guided

students to follow a rigorous academic curriculum. He encouraged them, through what became known as the Oxford Movement, to take a leadership role in working to improve society through the government and the Church.

The Newman Oxford Scholar Program is designed to acknowledge both the exhilaration and the responsibility of learning. Newman Oxford Scholars will be presented with opportunities for learning beyond the classroom. In addition, they will develop their leadership skills.

Students chosen to be Oxford Scholars are expected to: •Enroll in a challenging course of studies including Honors and Advanced Placement classes; •Achieve a 4.0 GPA every semester, or a year-end cumulative GPA which places them in the top 10% of their class; •Maintain the highest standards of behavior as prescribed by the school and affirmed by the Dean of Students; •Actively pursue to-curricular, extra-curricular, and service opportunities; •Serve as models for fellow Newman Oxford Scholars and for students in the entire community; •Participate in workshops and enrichment activities, ranging from lectures by academicians and Church leaders to community leaders pursuing social justice.

Admission to the Newman Oxford Scholar Program is based on overall academic achievement and potential, standardized test results, grade point average, and teacher or counselor recommendations. Invited students will be asked to submit additional information.

fall sports CROSS COUNTRY

Resurgence and improvement have been the hallmarks of the 2014 season of Cardinal Newman Cross Country, as all four teams established their best regular season records since 2011. The Men’s Varsity team, led by seniors Steve Adams and John Kulczewski, has surpassed preseason expectation and positioned themselves for one of the school’s better team performances in several years. The Women’s Varsity team has benefited from the leadership of senior Cantlen Forni and sophomore Eliana Heath en route to producing the fastest girls team in nearly a decade while etching their names in school history as one of our fastest groups ever. Both varsity teams are poised for great performances at both the North Bay League Championships and the North Coast Section Championships. With only 5 of 14 varsity athletes graduating this year, there is great promise on the horizon for this emerging program.

Notable Performers Men: Steve Adams, John Kulczewski, Dominic Natale, Dylan Kattengell, Connor Shaw, Tucker Cullen, Preston Matossian Women: Cantlen Forni, Eliana Heath, Carlie Borders, Isabelle Vreeland, Alex Dennen, Tori Dove, Clare Curran, Morgan Webb

SOCCER

WAT E R P O L O

Men's Water Polo

The water polo team did well this year with a league record of 6-4.

Our overall record was 9-10, competing against some very competitive teams this year. Three of our losses were within one point and two were within three points. Unfortunately, we will be losing six of our players next year due to graduation. Those who are not graduating this Spring I look forward to seeing next Fall. The team this year developed a good understanding of the fundamentals of water polo. In the off season we need to recruit some lower classmen so that we can keep the program going after next season, swimmers are always good recruits. Stay busy during the off season by swimming, joining club water polo, and by going to water polo clinics!

I want to thank the parents for supplying the team with food before, during, and after events. Special thanks to Chris and Cathleen Stafford, Leslie Bauer, and John Tarantino for all of their continued support; chaperoning, working the desk, doing statistics, and sending emails and reminders to everyone. The team and I could not have performed this season without you! Thank you. Coach Chris Humphreys

Men’s JV Soccer-Cardinal

This year, there seemed to be a general growth throughout the soccer program. The players felt that they were taken seriously and they enjoyed having the opportunity to play during the summer and on Saturdays. This year, all games were filmed and this helped the team greatly. Having the team separated into two JV teams made it possible for each player to have more personal attention during practices and game time. Thank you to the parent volunteers and the student athletes for making this season so successful!

Men’s JV Soccer-Gold Team

This year JV soccer showed a big growth in numbers making it necessary to split the players into two separate teams. This allowed for more one-on-one coaching, helping to grow CN’s soccer program. The players enjoyed having the coaches on the field practicing WITH them. The energy of the players was high and the willingness to work hard was evident throughout the season. We look forward to next year’s soccer season!

JV Women’s Soccer

The 2014 season was an exciting one for the women’s JV soccer team.

Although they had a small roster, they had big hearts, and as teammates they experienced some new benchmarks together. The team played our neighbors, Roseland Collegiate Prep twice, as Roseland formed their firstever women’s soccer team, and came away with two impressive victories.

Winning the home game against Casa Grande and tying them later in the season were first-time achievements against a traditionally challenging Casa squad. With injuries plaguing more than a few players, the team finished out the season with 11 players on the field, and no substitutes on the bench, a physical challenge that they took in stride. With a roster balanced almost 50/50 between freshmen and sophomores, they dug in together and had a very good time.

24 — C A R D I N A L N E W M A N H I G H S C H O O L

Women’s Water Polo

We had a good first season in the MCAL league this year. The competition was tough but the girls held their own and were never discouraged. They improved throughout the season with their skills. The women’s water polo program has really grown with a lot of new talented additions to both the Varsity and Junior Varsity team. The team grew to a total of 31 players this year, which is the biggest it has ever been. The girls are ready for next year and are already planning their off-season workouts.

The team will miss the ten Seniors that are graduating this year including, Gabriela Edman, Celine Gallo, Alissa Wankmuller, Phoebe Sheahan, Julia Kennedy, Paige Amormino, Ella Lorenzo, Ashton Smith, Marissa Garzini and Katie Greenan.

CHEER Cardinal Newman Varsity Cheer is reviving the Cardinal Pride and Spirit. Over the past few years, our committed team parents, athletes, and coaches have successfully brought Newman pride to the forefront through crowd support at games and school rallies, excellent game and half-time performances, and most importantly in building positive school SPIRIT. CN Varsity cheer not only works hard in keeping that student pride alive, they also promote vocal support of Cardinal Newman sports, are visible ambassadors of CN, and positive motivators of school spirit. They are strong students, leaders, public servants and athletes. They not only cheer for football but also work hard through the basketball season.

In the future, CN cheer hopes to build a JV team and a competition team to continue to build a stronger base of support for all our CN teams.

Over the summer Varsity cheer was successful in their endeavors in all facets of cheer. The team earned: •A Team Leadership Award •Received an invitation to the Hawaii Pro-Bowl/and The London Bowl •3 Superior Squad Awards for Best Camp Performance •1st place in High School Camp Competition •Julia Kennedy and Remy Gassman received the All American awards

WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL Varsity Volleyball

The 2014 Cardinal Newman Varsity Volleyball team is battling for a 4th place finish in a very tough North Bay League. The Cardinals will finish off league play competing for an appearance in the NBL tournament and then head into the North Coast Section Division IV playoff tournament. The Cardinals are led by senior Hannah Robles averaging 8 kills and 11 digs per match, junior outside hitter Ingrid Jungferman averaging 13 kills per match, junior outside hitter Jade Buhman averaging 9 kills and 14 digs per match, sophomore setter Megan Vice averaging 15 assists per match and sophomore defensive specialist Kate West averaging 14 digs per match. The coaching staff is extremely proud of the hard work and dedication this young team has demonstrated through their desire to excel first in academics and second in athletics. The Varsity volleyball team would like to acknowledge the support of the parents, students and faculty in helping to create a positive environment for their student athletes.

Junior Varsity Volleyball

This year's JV volleyball team posted an impressive 22-7 overall record, while capturing first place in the NBL with 12 wins & 2 losses. The team’s play was characterized by a “never say die” attitude, as demonstrated by thrilling, come-from-behind wins against Maria Carrillo and Casa Grande. Most importantly, each student-athlete learned to compete in the true Newman spirit and was an outstanding representative of the school.

Freshman Volleyball

The freshman volleyball team had a fun and productive year. Setters Jenna Bucher and Antonia Knight, and hitters/passers Grace Garzini, Kelly Danoff, Madelin Skinner, Samantha Meyer, and Catalina Walsh worked hard and greatly improved their skills and teamwork as the season progressed. I am proud of their efforts and dedication! The team would like to thank assistant coaches Rochelle Keiser and Sue Adams, and also Haley MacPhail and Shelby Rockefeller, for their time and energy.

GOLF Women'sVarsity Golf

The 2014 Girls Varsity Golf Season was exceptional! The girls were undefeated in the North Bay League with a 14-0 record. They qualified for the North Coast Section Division II Championship and placed third overall in the tournament. For the first time the Cardinal Newman Girls Golf team will be honored with two banners to be hung in the gym; one from NBL and one from NCS. The most improved returning player this year was sophomore Emily Pham and the most improved for the second half of the season was senior Megan McConnell. Sarah Knight, a junior who also plays softball, joined the golf team this year and is the most improved from the beginning of the season with a low score of 50 on our home course of Oakmont West. Helping win the banners this year with solid supporting scores throughout the season were senior Angela Chang, junior Alexis Allen, and new to the golf team this year sophomore Natalie Justice. Freshman Addie Matulaitis played her first round in a match against Montgomery. Beginners Paris Bryson, Beatrice Njoroge, Katie Pratt, and Maria JoslynO’Rourke round out the golf team and look to play in future matches.

Congratulations Girls! Go Newman!

WOMEN'S TENNIS The Cardinal Newman Women’s Tennis Team had a very successful fall season after losing some very quality seniors the previous year. We had senior leadership and captains in Preston Bernd, Anna Tamayo, Megan Ryan, and Shannon Foley. The Cardinals ended up 13-8 overall and 10-4 in league.

FOOTBALL Varsity

The 2014 football season has been a great experience for all involved. The seniors have done an outstanding job with leading the team on and off the field. We are extremely proud of the commitment that the players have made to the team. We’d also like to thank the families for making tremendous sacrifices so that their children can compete in athletic competitions. The team won league and holds the title of 2014 NBL Champions. Currently, as the varsity team continues its season with a 7-3 record, the team is seeded #8 in the Div. III NCS playoffs with their first game scheduled against Novato High School.

Junior Varsity

With one game left on the season, the 2014 Junior Varsity Football team has a 6-2 record while playing a very competitive schedule. The season started with two tough losses by a combined total of 8 points. Since then the team has won 6 straight games and is undefeated in league, led by an explosive offense that has scored 239 points and a stingy defense that has allowed only 74 points. This team committed to each other on and off the field. We focused on maximum effort, hard work, and becoming smarter players. There were too many great plays to single out any of the players, which would go against our belief of "TEAM" first. The coaching staff is very proud of these hard working young men and their accomplishments. Congratulations on a great season!

Frosh Football

The 2014 freshman football team started the season strong wining their home opener against Napa High School in dramatic fashion on the last drive of the game. During week two the freshman team suffered their only loss of the season after a hard fought game against St. Mary’s of Stockton. The freshman team closed out their non-league schedule the following week against Clayton Valley Charter with a 41-21 win in front of a home crowd.

Week 4 marked the start of a six game league schedule against traditional rivals. The freshman team hit their stride during the following weeks and finished the season in a dominant six game run outscoring their opponents 212 to 36.

The 2014 freshman football team had a great season with many highlights, but more importantly they displayed with excellent sportsmanship and teamwork along the way. All of the coaches are looking forward to watching these young players contribute to the Cardinal Newman athletic tradition over the next several years.

CN Alumni Retreat

F

or Cardinal Newman alumni from the classes of 1968 to 1980 the word “retreat” contains a variety of connotations. Among them was a time away from the demands of school, a period for quiet introspection or reflection and/or a time for deeper encounter with classmates or retreat leaders. If any of these match your experience then you were introduced to or at least “got” the purpose of a retreat.

Following the scriptural injunction found in Mark 6:31 where Jesus invites his disciples to “...come away by yourselves to a deserted place and rest awhile”, generations of Christians of all persuasions have purposefully sought time away from the stress and strain of daily life to retire to a quiet place for the purpose of reflection, discussion, reading, prayer and worship. In this context participants are encouraged to delve deeper into the mysteries and purposes of their own lives within the framework of a religious or spiritual belief system.

An effort is underway to offer such an opportunity to Cardinal Newman alumni. Because this is somewhat experimental, we are offering it first to graduates from 1968 to 1980 for reasons of age and approximate similarity of experience at Cardinal Newman which, in those years, was guided by priests and brothers from the Missionary Society of the Precious Blood (CPPS).

Those involved in planning the retreat thought it would be an excellent opportunity for schoolmates to meet and revive old friendships, compare their experiences during their years at Cardinal Newman and discuss how those formative years have effected their beliefs and values as adults.

A mailing will go out shortly as well as e-mail reminders to convene a gathering of men to explore the meaning and purpose of their lives at Cardinal Newman and how those experiences have colored their adult lives. For further information contact Tom Webb (1973): sojournertpw@ gmail.com.

Career Day

A

lumni and CN Community Helps Make Career Day a Success!

Cardinal Newman High School’s Career Day was held on Wednesday, October 15, 2014. Career Day is an opportunity for students to learn about a variety of careers and what it takes to be successful in college and beyond.

Thirty-seven people, made up of CN/UHS alumni and our community, gave presentations to our students, grades 9 through 11, and discussed what inspired them to pursue their chosen careers, the educational requirements necessary, the rewards and what real-world problems they encountered. Along with bringing real-world experiences to the table, the alumni discussed the value of their education at Cardinal Newman and the paths they took to get where they are today. Keynote speaker, Tim Bucher ‘82, entrepreneur in the Silicon Valley and winery owner, spoke about how important it is to enjoy what you do and how your path may change. He also spoke of how important high school is; how it’s the starting block to everything else that will come in your life. Tim challenged the students to use a new app that he developed and to let him know if they find any “bugs”. For every legitimate “bug” found, Tim will donate $100 (up to $5,000) to CN. Whoever has the most input, has a chance at an internship at his company, Lyve Minds. These speakers generously gave their time to share their experiences and advice in classroom sessions. Thank you to everyone who participated in making Career Day 2014 a success!

A R T S AT N EW M A N

This fall was packed with the both performing and visual arts at Cardinal Newman. For performing arts the main events were the Fall Dance Show and the Fall Drama Production.

Fall Drama Production - Wild Oats

Director Carl Hamilton led his band of actors in a wonderful play called Wild Oats. It was a “hilarious, rip-snorting send-up of the Old West frontier of wild and woolly legends. A slam-bang wildly funny farce which provides both a field day for performers, and an experience of sheer delight for audiences!” It’s based on a play by the Irish writer, John O'Keeffe. This version is by James McLure and it’s set in the Wild West. The cast consisted of Jackie Castro, Alex Johnson, Emily Jaffe, Chris Lin, Clare O’Brien, Sam Krauskopf, Clarissa Chambers, Zac McMurray, Lexi Pappas, Shannon Stark and Leonette Miksis.

Fall Dance Show Dance Through Time

The Fall Dance Show was another great success. This year’s theme was Dance Through Time. It featured dances from the 1920s through the 1980s. All dance students were in the show. With wonderful costumes and great choreography, it was an amazing event!

Cardinal Newman Rock Ensemble

The school band, called the Rock Ensemble, performed at the grand opening of the new Sutter Hospital in October just down the street from Cardinal Newman. The group chose to perform Pop and Rock songs on stage for the guests at the open house. It was the debut performance. They also performed at home football games as the Pep Band, also songs that they chose and arranged. They’re a tight, selfdirected unit. Look out for them in concert in the Spring!

Arts Alive! 2015

Also coming up in the Spring, both the performing and fine arts get a chance to shine during Arts Alive! week, which is the schools week-long festival of the arts. Arts Alive! will be held on campus April 20-24, 2015. There will be a different event each evening including an Art Gallery opening, a Poetry night, a Film Festival and a Talent Show.

Look for more information on this exciting week showcasing the arts at Cardinal Newman!
