Only YOU...
I RECENTLY READ AN ARTICLE about the longest-running public service advertising campaign in U.S. history, the one featuring Smokey the Bear and advising that “Only YOU can prevent forest fires!” I was surprised to learn that this slogan was first launched in 1947. Growing up in the 1970s, I remember well seeing TV commercials with the animated mascot delivering his message in a friendly and effective way.
All this conjured an image in my head of our beloved Kiski mascot sharing a similar message with our constituents. But the Kiski Cougar would be focused on two things only YOU can do for Kiski.
Only YOU can bring more great young men to Kiski. Whether you’re an alumnus or a past or present parent or a friend of the school, your perspective on Kiski is different than anyone else’s. You can tell stories from your heart about your experiences here and the impact Kiski has had on your life and the lives of others.
You may encounter a friend or work colleague who has a school-age son. He talks about his son with pride and shares details of his successes, his strengths, his aspirations and dreams. Imagine if those seeds of potential were planted on the fertile grounds of Kiski’s campus?
The majority of our inquiries still come from referrals by those who have
a direct connection to our school. That’s you. More than just sharing our website with a prospective family, consider actively participating in the admission process by visiting campus with them and offering to help as they complete an application and make a final decision. Anyone who’s done this can tell you about the great satisfaction that comes with changing a young man’s life by helping him become a Kiski Boy.
Only YOU can make Kiski your #1 philanthropic priority. Over the past two decades, we’ve successfully completed a number of fundraising efforts that resulted in renovated dormitories, a center for student activities, an upgraded athletic complex, and new science facilities, to name just a few. With a handsomely-updated physical plant we can point to with pride, we now turn our attention to a more noble goal: raising scholarships funds that will allow even more great young men to attend Kiski, including those who would have otherwise been unable to afford it.
Through our new campaign called For the Boys, we will focus on securing much-needed funding for tuition assistance over the next three years. We’ll turn to our faithful donors and local foundations for help in sponsoring gifts and grants for this very worthy cause. For Pennsylvania residents and business
owners, we hope you’ll consider making a donation through the Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program, which gives participants a tax credit of 90% of their donation. More information about this program is available on page 64.
It’s an exciting time for Kiski, and we look forward to updating you on our progress as our initiatives develop and our plans unfold.
Thinking about the inspiration for this letter, we can all agree that Smokey the Bear is an admirable character, and his message is an important one. But, appreciating the highly-competitive nature of Kiski Boys, one that drives them to succeed in anything they try to accomplish, I’ll say this: If Smokey and the Cougar had a push-up contest, our guy would win.
With my heartfelt thanks, as always, for everything YOU do to support the school we love so much, I am
Sincerely yours,
Chris Brueningsen Head of School

NOT A GOODBYE, BUT A SEE YOU SOON
Kiski’s annual year-end celebrations may be a reflection on the year that was— a chapter written—but it is also a reminder to the returning underclassmen and graduating seniors that their Kiski stories will continue even beyond graduation. Our hope is to welcome many joyous returns to campus from our Forever Kiski Boys and proudly share in their successes ahead.

HONORS CONVOCATION
Honors Convocation is traditionally our last formal schoolwide function. Underclassmen are recognized for superlative achievement in and beyond the classroom before a week of final exams that concludes with commencement. By then, the returning Kiski Boys are off enjoying their summer breaks (or anxiously awaiting their final grades).
Student Speaker Luke Waltrip ’22 led off the event and centered his remarks around the theme of Kiski’s uncommon culture saying, “Community is a word that is commonly thrown around when talking about our campus, but I feel like many don’t acknowledge the immense power behind it. The Kiski Brotherhood binds us together and allows us to thrive. This is what I love about Kiski, people from diverse backgrounds coming together to support another community member in need.”
Luke also commended the adaptability of the Kiski campus family, specifically how it traversed different stages of the pandemic during his time on campus. “The Kiski community has the ability to adapt through campus changes. In the two years I have been here, we went from full quarantine mode with a modified dress code to family-style meals and no masks. We adapt. We change. We support each other. We’ve got each other’s backs no matter what happens.”
Assistant Head of School Mr. Ryan John continued highlighting the full community by reminding the boys that, although only a select few of them would receive awards that evening, they should all be recognized for, “The greatness that happens in our classrooms day in and day out. Whether you are here at Kiski next year, or you’re headed off to college, you will face new challenges and you will be ready because of the hard work that you put in here competing with other bright and talented boys,” he concluded.
Once the last awardees were recognized, refreshments were enjoyed and photos taken, the boys returned to their dorms to prepare for their final week of school. Head of School Mr. Chris Brueningsen’s closing remarks from last year's Honors Convocation had come to pass. Campus life this year did much more closely resemble the normalcy that we were living before the pandemic. The Boys had rallied to support each other through the rigors and triumphs for the 134th consecutive year of Kiski’s existence.

SENIOR AWARDS CEREMONY
The tent on the Yukevich Quad filled just as a downpour began. Fortunately, the sound system and parent speaker Mr. Carlos Correa Negrete’s ’92, P’22 booming voice rose above the din. He recounted his time as a Kiski Boy and how it prepared him as a context for his assertion that Kiski Boys remain on path toward success, a trajectory unchanged over the history of the School. “With the Kiski essence in place, Kiski Boys have made, are making and will make a positive impact on society for years to come,” he declared just as the spring shower ceased.
Mr. Correa’s remarks were followed by reflections from retiring Director of Technology Mr. Marcus Muster H’22, P’16. Mr. Muster started teaching at Kiski a year before Mr. Correa’s arrival in the fall of 1987 and this commencement was the last of his 35. He began by telling the story of his uneasy arrival on the Kiski campus to work at his first Kiski football camp. He—as he surmised many of the seniors had too—struggled to adjust before settling into his place among the football team. “As I stand here today, I
feel so lucky to have found Kiski—and although I didn’t know it at the time—all that I had done and been a part of for the first 22 years of my life was preparing me for this opportunity, to work at an all-boys boarding school in rural Pennsylvania. I think it is safe to say that we both have benefited from our time here,” Mr. Muster said as he addressed the Class of 2022.
Speaking specifically of friendships formed, Mr. Muster said, “You know making friends isn’t an exact science. Most of the time you make friends by gravitating towards people that you have common interests with. Sometimes you become friends with the people that you just end up spending so much time with: teammates, roommates and classmates. And sometimes you become friends with the most unlikely of people for the most uncommon of common reasons.”
He completed that thought by saying, “Like you seniors, I’m leaving Kiski with many great friends that will continue to last a lifetime. You may go a few years without seeing or hearing from your
Kiski brothers and friends, but trust me the minute you pick up the phone, see each other at reunion, send each other a text, run into each other by coincidence, connect via social media, it will be like you never missed a beat.”
Head of School Mr. Chris Brueningsen began his closing remarks by commending the seniors for navigating two and a half challenging years. He had prepared his theme by asking the faculty, “What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received.” He organized the responses selected for his speech into three categories: Do it right. Know yourself—understand your strengths and limitations. Be kind.
With Mr. Brueningsen’s last bits of collected advice shared, and his desire for many returns from the Class of 2022 repeated once more, Associate Head of School Mr. Mark Novom reminded the seniors of their final responsibilities regarding the next day’s commencement. He then dismissed them to a final night of revelry before receiving their diplomas.

KISKI’S 134 TH COMMENCEMENT CEREMONY
Chairman of Kiski’s Board of Trustees
Mr. John Jacob Sr. ’89, P’18, P’20, P’23 began Kiski’s 134-year-old tradition by bestowing a rare award upon retiring Director of Technology Mr. Marcus Muster H’22, P’16. The Class of 2022 gained a 68th member as he was presented an honorary diploma. The plaque accompanying his diploma read in part,“In recognition of his remarkable tenure, and a steadfast dedication to scholarly pursuits, we proudly award him an honorary Kiski diploma and confer upon him the title Director of Technology Emeritus.”
Head of School Mr. Chris Brueningsen then introduced Head Prefect Alex Figueroa ’22 for his address. Alex recounted the troubling uncertainty brought on by the pandemic that started during his class’s sophomore year, and how they moved beyond those hard times. With hindsight, he made light of that destabilizing period saying, “I mention this not to remind everyone that COVID is a party pooper—I’m sure we all know that.”
He also highlighted the relief and extra excitement that occurred on
campus when fun traditions that may have been taken for granted previously were maintained or returned. “The International Food Festival was a prime example. Although, we were accustomed to having it in the Turley Dining Hall, COVID required us to have it outdoors scattered throughout the Yukevich Quad. The weather was amazing. The food was delicious, and it simply felt good to be outside again. Both faculty and students were able to interact without restrictions,” he recalled fondly.
Each of his brothers were then called

to the stage to receive their diplomas before Timothy Allshouse ’22 was introduced to give his valedictory address. He focused on the lessons that can be learned by looking backward and applying what was learned for the present. His remarks were of course sprinkled with his endearing self-deprecating humor. When speaking of the power in looking back in order to grow as individuals, diminutive Timothy quipped, “Growth comes in two different forms: physical and mental. However, I believe the most important growth is the
latter. Mental growth is what will stick with us for the rest of our lives. Your body stops physically growing at some point, like I believe I sadly have,” inducing laughter throughout the crowd. He told another—now comical—story about how he had a slight meltdown upon his eighteenth birthday and the realization that he didn’t know how to pay taxes, what he coined a “Timmy Moment.” However, a pair of his faculty mentors, Mr. Ryan John and Mr. TJ Stock ’04, helped to reorient him, reminding him to focus on what he can control…and that
the taxes for a lifeguard living at home as a dependent are quite simple.
Mr. Brueningsen added his own signature humor before closing the ceremony. Speaking directly to Timothy he said, “The last thing I’d ever want to do is stress you out on your graduation day, but I just want to let you know that the diploma you’re holding in your hand…I’m pretty sure it’s considered taxable income.” He then shared his standard heartfelt final words, “For a short time goodbye, forever good luck and may God bless all of you.”

The Class of 2022 is composed of 67 young men who through their experiences at Kiski, are prepared to succeed in college and in life. They have chosen to further their learning and continue their education at the following institutions:
YOUR COUGARS
FALL 2021 SPORTS
Our varsity athletics teams were back in full operation last season and restrictionfree sports have continued through the fall 2022 seasons that will reach their endpoints while this issue goes to print.
// FOOTBALL
Last fall, the football team assembled a 5-3 record while battling through one of the most difficult schedules in recent history. Fortunately, the Cougars were prepared for the challenge by three-aday preseason practices. That earned grit was a critical ingredient for one of their biggest wins of the year. Down 7-19 in the first quarter at Peddie, the team rallied to win 35-26! “The boys played hard and never quit,” boasted Head Coach Bo Buran. The Cougars were unshaken and responded to the adjustments made on the sideline by their coaches, leading to victory!
2021 Football
// GOLF
On the links, Kiski fought to many close victories, losing only two contests by a combined three strokes. Their most remarkable achievement, one that had not occurred over 13 years, came in the Westmoreland County Coaches Association Championship. The Cougars not only won the small-school bracket for a ninth consecutive year, they beat every team in the big-school division too! Accomplishments like that don’t happen without a full team effort. Everyone contributed to the exciting season.
// CROSS COUNTRY
The cross country team covered enough miles to span the distance between Kiski and Charlotte, NC. It was a thrill to return to invitational racing for the first time in two years. The team also hosted two meets on what could still be considered the most grueling course in the region. It takes a special toughness to train and race on the hills of our Saltsburg campus.

15 THE KISKI SCHOOL BULLETIN 2022 Year in Review
// HOCKEY
The hockey team slogged through injuries, weather complications and COVID-related cancelations. However, they reached full stride by the end of January and finished the season with a four-game winning streak. They also enjoyed renewing the tradition of outdoor play on the McDonald Pond. Seeing the boys gliding through the snowfall is always a welcome site.
2021–2022 Hockey
2022
// SWIMMING
In the pool, your Cougar swimmers were mostly new to the sport—some bravely competing their first races ever—but were led by a group of veterans that tallied the vast majority of the team scoring. All earned new best times and that work led to three straight dual-meet victories following a “hell week” of training.
// WRESTLING
The wrestlers are no strangers to taxing training either. They converted their punishing efforts in the Zeigler Wrestling Room into a solid campaign that included a big team victory over Mercersburg. Once again, Kiski was represented on the national level with three grapplers advancing to the elite national meet.
// BASKETBALL
The Cougars played their second game of the season on the Cleveland Cavaliers’ home court, Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse. Though they dropped the contest to perennial national power International Sports Academy, the team made the most of an unforgettable experience. Highlights of the 2022 half of the schedule included a close win against Western Reserve Academy, a 36-point win against rival Mercersburg and a lopsided win in a rematch against International Sports Academy. That outcome served as evidence of their improvement since the early season meeting. Like many of our athletes, the basketball players commit themselves to improvement beyond their traditional season. They often have (early) practices and games in the fall and spring while many of them find additional time to contribute with other sports. The “out-ofseason” games help them to gain exposure with college coaches, a big advantage that opens new opportunities.

SPRING 2022 SPORTS
// TENNIS
Out on the tennis courts, the outmanned Cougars didn’t show any quit in the face of challenges born of inexperience. They fought onward and were rewarded with their first team win at the season’s final contest. The brave souls that stepped in to carry the Kiski Tennis flag into battle with almost no competitive racket sport history represented their School well nonetheless.
2022 Tennis
// BASEBALL
A mostly inexperienced baseball team relied heavily on a few healthy veterans to lead them one play at a time through their schedule. The “small wins” were plentiful even if the team wins were scarce. The team improved and the returners will look to build on that growth next season. Fortunately, the Cougars prowling the Andreini Field diamond have ample space within the recently and beautifully renovated Ross Athletic Center. The facility is complete with batting cages and room for fielding practice.
2022 Baseball
// LACROSSE
The lacrosse team continued their stretch of dominance. Kiski’s schedule included contests against a number of national powerhouses and the best public programs in the region. The Cougars earned a 4-seed in the Midwest Scholastic Lacrosse Association (MSLA) Tournament’s A-bracket. The MSLA coaches voted nine Kiski Boys to All-MSLA teams: five to the first team, one to the second team and three to the honorable mention squad. It is no surprise that many Kiski lacrosse players advance to play on the college level.

// TRACK & FIELD
Lastly, after a two-year layoff, we were excited to see our track and field athletes compete again. The Cougars finished 3-2 on the season, with strong team performances against River Valley and Purchase Line. The team qualified nine athletes for the PAISAA Championships. During that meet, Marcel Holyfield ’22 earned a third-place medal jumping 42’5” in the triple jump. That was a personal best and placed him 5th in the All-Time Kiski Track and Field records. During the invitationals, the team performed well at the Western Reserve Relays. The Cougars earned five medals, including in the 4x100 and sprint medley relay events finishing first and second, respectively. The sprint medley relay team held the top time in the state among PAISAA schools.
Back-to-(Pause)to-Back Champions
Last November, Kiski soccer captured a second consecutive Pennsylvania Independent Schools Athletic Association (PISAA) title. The Cougars were in control for nearly the entire game and ultimately won 4-2. However, a skilled Germantown team entered the game on a 17-game winning streak and had several solid scoring chances. Fortunately, the Kiski Boys were able to turn all but the two threats away.
2022 Track & Field
When the game clock showed all zeros and the win was official, the boys sprinted to the fence separating them from the fans. There they celebrated with their classmates who bussed across the state to support them. Then they congregated at the far goal to take team photos with the 2021 championship plaque that is now displayed in the Ross Athletic Center next to their first plaque earned during the 2019 season.
Years from now, it may be lost on visitors that those titles were won consecutively. The 2020 season—disrupted by the pandemic—was not decided by a championship tournament. Therefore,
the Cougar’s title defense did not resume until the fall of 2021.
It should also be noted that the 2021 title may have been most in doubt during the penultimate game against Shipley. After topping the Hill School in the PAISAA quarterfinals, Kiski hosted a physical Shipley team for the right to advance to the final. Shipley temporarily quieted a raucous crowd after tallying the first score. It wasn’t until late in the contest that the equalizing goal crossed the goal line and Head Coach Jonty Loukes made a fateful decision that likely decided that game and the title run.
“Kiski had just tied the game up, and with about 15 minutes left of regulation time I was already thinking shootout,” recounted Loukes. “During the practices leading up to the state tournament we were practicing penalty kicks. This is fun for the field players, but particularly fun for the goalkeepers because of their chance to outfox the shooters. Aitor [Lopez Barriga ’22] thrived in this environment. He’s 6’4” and has a wingspan just as big so he is a daunting figure in the goal.”

Ben Feinstein ’23 (#8) leading the celebration as the Cougars advance to the finals with Luke Lenz ’23 (#9), Adrian Alvarez ’24 (#11) and Ben Conti ’24 (#20) following.
“Aitor had not played any part of the semi-final game or the previous game against The Hill School, but at that moment I told Aitor to warm up as he would be going in goal for the shootout. Regulation and overtime finished with no goals scored and Aitor took his place between the posts for the shootout. Aitor saved one of the first five penalty kicks and as the shootout moved to sudden-death, Kiski needed a save to prevent Shipley from winning. Aitor came up with a big save. Kiski scored their next penalty kick and then Aitor again came up with another save to send Kiski into the state final,” said Loukes.
The Cougars were met by their classmates on their field to celebrate the big semifinal win. The delayed title defense may have made the latest championship that much sweeter for the players and their proud Kiski Brothers. We should know if the Cougars have enough remaining soccer magic to extend the championship streak to a three-peat just before this issue hits mailboxes. Go Cougars!

SUCCESS
IN LIFE DAY
Focusing on college, careers and preparing Kiski Boys for success in life
Kiski held its second-annual Success in Life Day on April, 29, 2022. Once again, the program was focused on the second half of the Kiski Mission: To prepare young men to succeed in college and in life. Each student followed a personalized schedule.
THE JUNIORS were joined virtually by Career Day presenters from across the nation. They were also hosted by Ms. Megan Neumeister (Director of College Counseling) and Mr. Jon Shelton (Assistant Director of College Counseling) to discuss the next steps in their college application processes.
MEANWHILE, THE SENIORS were treated to three different small group presentations. Mr. Aaron Magazine ’14 (Creative, REBOLTZ) provided guidance pertaining to the creation and cultivation of a personal brand using social media. Ms. Samantha Bushman (Founder/CEO, Talk: The New Sex Ed) led an informative chat regarding consent. The final small group was hosted by Mr. Mark Rhodehamel (Associate Director of Advancement) and was centered around the use of Kiski’s alumni networking software, Wavelength. The seniors ended their day learning the networking “do’s and don’ts” from Mr. Michael Bradley ’97 (President/Owner, MS3 Networking).
THE SOPHOMORE CLASS started with a presentation on personal finance tips for young professionals led by Mr. Derek Green ’10 (Investment Advisor, Schenley Capital). They were then enlightened on the finer points of interviewing by Dr. Jeff Bondy ’73 (Management Psychologist and Partner, HR Professional/Caldwell). That built nicely into the annual mock interview exercise. The sophomores’ skills were put to the test by former faculty members Mrs. Judy McAtee, Mr. John Lombardo, Mr. Andy Muffley, and Mrs. Beth Crawford. Those legends were reinforced by Kiski’s Chief Financial Officer,
Mr. Steven Reubi, science teacher, Mr. Mike Solominsky, Director of the Learning Center, Mrs. Darcie Spahn, and alumni Mr. Derek Green ’10 and Mr. John Boyle II ’95
OUR YOUNGEST KISKI BOYS started their day with a leadership skills presentation helmed by Major Geoffrey Simmons ’96 (Director of Command-and-Control Systems Operations Division, Pentagon/Marines). Those lessons were employed during a boat building and racing exercise led by Mr. Andy Scott ’85 (Art Department Chair). The freshmen were also challenged to lead each other through obstacles on the David Caswell “Cas” Devey ’11 Memorial Ropes Course.
We trust the boys slept very well that evening and that their dreams were brought into clearer focus.
CAREER DAY SPEAKERS featured Mr. Sam Breene ’01 – County Commissioner of Venango County; Mr. Major Canady ’13 –Medical Device Sales, Align Inc.; Mr. Arsheel Khan ’04 – Data Analytics, Citigroup; Mr. Augie Luptak ’13 – Investment Banking, H.I.G. Capital; Mr. Gregory S. Manuel ’78 – Researcher, Project Manager; National Aeronautics and Space Administration;
Mr. Robert Seibel ’02 – Associate Vice President of Global Ethics and Compliance, Bath & Body Works; Mr. Justin Weiss ’10 – Deputy Press Secretary, National Aeronautics and Space Administration; Mr. Shawn Wray – Director of Business Resiliency, Ansys; and Mr. Dave Coughanour – Vice President of Cybersecurity, Ansys.

AN INTERNATIONAL ADVANTAGE
In addition to the advantages afforded Kiski by its rural, boys-only, and small school attributes; the School maintains a long tradition of enrolling young men from all over the world.
Although the majority of Kiski Boys call the United States— and of that group mostly Pennsylvania—home, 23 countries are represented on campus this year. The Boys share their unique perspectives concerning current events, upbringings, and culture (and yes, sometimes debate the superiority of their sports teams, food and music).
This year, we are excited to welcome two Ukrainian students to Kiski through a program called Project Safe Harbor, an initiative that is bringing Ukrainian young people in crisis to American boarding schools and colleges. The program is being coordinated through the Association of Boarding Schools and the Association of Military Colleges and Schools of the United States. The Ukrainian government fully supports the project along with the Ukrainian Global University and Ukrainian Global Scholars Foundation. The cost of their boarding tuitions is being covered by generous Kiski sponsors.
Andrii Maltsev ’23 joins us from Chernihivska in northern Ukraine. He attended one of the top schools in Ukraine and was the president of his class. He has an interest in studying economics, international relations and computer science.
Andrii joined the soccer team and enjoys the campus’ diversity, including his Italian roommate. “It changes how you see the world from different angles,” remarked Andrii.
Mykhialo Mizin ’24 joins us from outside Crimea. He has a strong interest in urbanism and politics and was instrumental in creating a student forum in his previous school to discuss politics and complex issues. Like many Ukrainian students, he was concerned about his ability to continue his studies after Russia invaded Ukraine in February of 2022.
He proactively pursued multiple options and when Mykhialo became aware of the Ukrainian Global University initiative he applied immediately. Associate Head of School for Enrollment Management Bramble Buran provided him with an captivating glimpse of what he could expect at Kiski during the application process. “We had a conversation, not just an interview, and she got to know me not just a student but as a whole person.”
Mykhialo shared that his mission is to use what he learns in the United States to help rebuild his country. This sentiment echoes one of Kiski’s primary objectives, to graduate young men who multiply the impact of the investment in their educations by positively impacting the communities they subsequently join. Meanwhile, all Kiski Boys are enriched by their time together.

Kiski hosted over 300 guests for an extra special reunion weekend. Not only did the milestone reunion classes ending in 2 and 7 attend in great numbers, wrestling alumni reunited from all eras to celebrate their storied program. Still more alumni returned to Kiski to celebrate the life of Tamas Szilagyi P’88, GP’21. Alumni that never need an excuse to return to campus, found plenty of reasons to visit their home in Saltsburg, PA.
Members of the Class of 1962 added an eight-foot steel bench to the Class of 1962 Outdoor Classroom in honor of their 60th reunion.

Weekend
SAVE THE DATE! JUNE 2–4, 2023 REUNION WEEKEND
EVERY CORNER OF THE CAMPUS WAS BUSTLING WITH ACTIVITY. A group of kayakers left to tame the Kiskiminetas River while the Class of 1962 marked the occasion of their 60th reunion by rededicating their Outdoor Classroom established during their 50th. Canoes slid into the McDonald Pond on one bank, while alumni cast fishing rods from the other and golfers strode to the green behind them.
Alumni and their guests learned blacksmithing techniques from Fine and Performing Arts Department Chair Andy Scott ’85, and later in the day Fine and Performing Arts Department Faculty Member Patricia Argyros P’96 guided alumni and their guests through a Paint and Sip activity on the porch of Old Main. Golfers received instruction from Kiski Golf Coach and current World Languages Teacher Mark Orsatti P’24. Admissions Office tours weaved through the handsomely renovated campus and meticulously kept grounds. All the while, small groups of alumni, families and guests favored collecting in small groups under the large event tent or shady trees to recall old stories and share new ones.
LATER, THE CROWD CONVENED UNDER THE TENT FOR A BRIEF STATE-OF-THE SCHOOL ADDRESS
from Head of School Chris Brueningsen. Associate Head of School for Institutional Advancement Steve Szilagyi ’88, P’21 announced Kyle Webb ’86, P’17 as the Distinguished Alumnus Award winner. Frank Urbany ’51, P’80, GP’10, GP’12 added to his collection of “Most Experienced” Alumnus in Attendance Awards and Kevin Brooks ’84 was recognized for traveling the farthest for the event, from Beaverton, OR. Class Captains were recognized for their irreplaceable contributions to the reunion turnout and tireless advocacy for Kiski. The silver, Class of 1997, and golden, Class of 1972, were called forward to receive recognition and gifts. The Class of 1962 was called forward last to hoist the Reunion Giving Cup that they have won every five years since the inception of the award. Class Captain Roger Kishman ’62 was honored with a special gift for his unparalleled leadership.
After the awards and banquet, alumni found tables populated by classmates and new friends to take in live music and delight in conversations. Many lingered there late into the evening while others watched Saltsburg’s Canal Days fireworks from the Class of 1962 Outdoor Classroom or retreated to the bonfire behind the Swank Student Center. They rose to say their last goodbyes the next morning before parting ways. With that, the countdown to the 2023 Reunion Weekend on June 2 – 4 was underway!

WRESTLING ALUMNI REUNION
WRESTLING HEAD COACH JOE ROSS CHAMPIONED a special addition to Reunion Weekend 2022.He and his wife, Carla Ross, and a dedicated group of wrestling alumni created specific events dedicated to their program. Months of calls, emails and messages built an incredible turnout of over 125 guests who gathered to celebrate Kiski Wrestling.
Emcees Ned McCauge ’04 and Chris Banks ’05 introduced each wrestler in attendance as he walked through a smoke filled entrance into their banquet. After welcoming remarks from Head of School Chris Brueningsen honoring Kiski Wrestling’s rich pedigree and Coach Ross’ contributions to that lore, the attendees were treated to reflections from alumni spanning all generations of Kiski wrestling. Craig Spitzer ’83 even joined the party remotely when his remarks were projected onto the dining room wall for the crowd to enjoy.
The evening was brought to a close by a unique perspective, that of proud parent of a Kiski wrestling alumnus, Robert Peirce P’18, P’21. He ended with a heartfelt request for the next generation of Kiski wrestlers after announcing a generous gift of $30,000 for wrestling scholarships made by his family. “The wrestlers here were challenged by this program. I’d like to challenge you to help get more kids into this school, to get more students at Kiski, to learn from Mr. Ross,” he said to an ovation of cheers. “I want you to think about a wrestler that could come here, a kid that needs some guidance. I’d like you to consider this challenge to contribute what you can to continue your commitment towards Mr. Ross, to The Kiski School, to a future wrestler that’s going to thrive under him,” he continued.
The next morning, the group met in the Athletic Hall of Fame for mock weigh-ins before the new Wrestling Wall of Honor was unveiled in the Zeigler Wrestling Room. The wrestlers stood in awe before plaques and photos listing legendary Kiski Champions.
The weekend was by all measures a huge success. During the banquet Mike Eisen ’84 thanked Coach Ross for bringing everyone together. “This is really special. I’m hoping this is the first of many such occasions, maybe for some other sports as well,” he said. Kiski plans to do just that during the years ahead. Football alumni were welcomed to a similar event during Homecoming 2022.

KISKI LUMINARY
TAMAS “POPS” SZILAGYI
When we consider our favorite subject in high school, or our best academic experience, no one remembers their favorite textbook. It is the teacher we remember. It is the teacher that makes the difference. The knowledge the teacher brings of his or her subject along with the driving desire to share this information can shape the life of a student forever. Excellent teaching is an art. It takes years of dedicated practice, fine-tuning, and growth through trial and error by the practitioner to achieve excellence. Hours of preparation mixed with some boldness, pedagogical talent, knowledge, and dedication come together to produce an outstanding teacher. At Kiski, we have enjoyed the blessings of many superb teachers over the years. This section of the Bulletin is dedicated to honoring excellent Kiski teachers, our Luminaries. In this space, we remember teachers who shared their brilliance and enlightened generations of Kiski Boys.
KISKI AND THE SZILAGYI FAMILY HOSTED A CELEBRATION OF LIFE to honor the memory of Tamas Szilagyi during Reunion Weekend 2022. Common themes and specific stories regarding Pops’ five decades of service have been wistfully shared informally since his December 23, 2021 passing, and the gathering during Reunion Weekend provided a space to formally recognize the Kiski legacy Pops etched into the bedrock of the School’s foundation.
Broad smiles, laughter and tears of joyful remembrance spread across the Clark Theater within the Rogers Fine Arts Center. Speaker Brendan Moriarty ’86, Kiski’s Director of Studies and a lifelong student of Mr. Szilagyi’s, wondered what Pops would think of a formal event convened in his
honor. “I can only imagine him looking a little suspicious, rolling his eyes, taking a drag on a cigarette, then insisting he didn’t roll his eyes, and then offering me a new drink as he asks me if I believe that this Zelensky is for real, can he hold on, did I understand the relevance of the Donbas for the Ukrainian economy, did I read what Tim Snyder had to say, did you see what they wrote in the Guardian, why the hell did Messi go to PSG? Pops had, let us say, a volatile, impatient relationship with formal occasions and expectations, especially when they were about him,” said Moriarty.
Tamas Szilagyi expanded and influenced many minds using all forums made available to him in Kiski’s unique boarding school environment. He had a signature teaching style born of legendarily diligent preparation and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge that generations of Kiski Boys benefited from one conversation at a time, in and— perhaps more importantly—beyond the classroom.
“When you’re 15 years old and left to your own devices, or lack thereof, it’s tough. It’s a hard age. You’re surrounded by the failures of your own immaturity—what seem like a lot of ugly mistakes and embarrassing weaknesses. Kiski made you face them, either by design or by circumstance. So you begin to look around for examples of what some folks might call accomplishment but what I’ll call beauty. You want to be delivered from your condition. Transported. When I think back on it—Tom was that kind of example. He was that transcendent figure,” shared David Conrad ’85
“Pops demanded that we dive deep into history, asking why. He didn’t want a regurgitation of who, what, when and where but instead demanded that we deeply investigate

Grubbs ’85
what propelled events that would change history. This approach was indeed revolutionary for fledgling minds. Instead of learning how to ace a test, we were trained by Pops to think for ourselves,” summarized Tim Grubbs ’85. Head of School Chris Brueningsen spoke to his influence as a mentor. “Tamas taught me so much about being a teacher. His philosophy of teaching, a nod to the Hippocratic Oath, was: ‘First, do no harm.’ His preparation for his classes was meticulous. On many visits, I’d see a dozen open books and Xeroxed articles on his kitchen table with passages underlined and highlighted with notes in the margins and a yellow legal pad with outlines for his lessons. There are probably a hundred books in our school library with Szilagyi notes and scribblings in the margins. He taught me that planning for class is serious business and that teaching is, in many ways, a creative, artistic enterprise,” he said.
Tamas was also known as a superlative soccer player and phenomenal coach. He stood in opposition to George Bernard Shaw’s belief that, “Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.” The sight of Tamas passing through campus while casually juggling a soccer ball
that never passed from his control to the ground below is a ubiquitous vision for many from his time at Kiski. And Kiski Boys yearned to qualify for the varsity soccer team he led.
“Two of us, David Boesel and I, having played for years while we were at Shady Side Academy, dreamt of the next year when we could try to qualify for the Varsity and play for the esteemed Mr. Szilagyi. His reputation preceded him, and we knew of his track record of playing in Hungary and then when he arrived in the United States,” recounted Bill Borden ’70
Pops and Bill Borden’s 1969 soccer team members were 2015 inductees of Kiski’s nascent Athletic Hall of Fame, established in 2013 with a healthy backlog of worthy entrants. “It was stated that our team changed the direction of Kiski soccer and, if true, and based on what I saw of Kiski soccer last season, we are flattered indeed,” said Borden.
An enduring memory from that evening was seeing Tamas hold court on the porch of Fair Hall with his former players. Both coach and students beamed with the same youthful exuberance that provided a window into distant events and bonds unscathed by time.
“We can all take comfort knowing that Tamas’s legacy is secure. The memories and stories will be shared and re-told by all of us and passed down to future generations of Kiski Boys. That’s a fitting tribute to this Kiski legend,” concluded Brueningsen. We can dedicate ourselves to the cultivation of his spirit of bottomless inquisitiveness, deft guidance, warm greetings—and yes, even streaks of rebelliousness—that live on at Kiski and in those he inspired.
“Pops demanded that we dive deep into history, asking why. He didn’t want a regurgitation of who, what, when and where but instead demanded that we deeply investigate what propelled events that would change history.”

In 2008, David Conrad ’85 produced Tamas: A Portrait. “I think change only comes as a kind of byproduct of relentless devotion. The devotion of a mother to a difficult child. The devotion of a teacher. Tom spent most of his life with his nose to the grindstone of our lives. What we needed. What we didn’t even know we needed. I just wanted to say it out loud,” Conrad shared when reflecting on his motivation behind the project. Scan the QR code to view the documentary.

BRIAN ELLIS ’94 We always hung out after the alumni soccer games, there were endless visits to his house, too many to count, and many letters from my multiple duty stations and deployments, always with a card from him or Brigitta or both in return. I loved it that they didn’t use computers. There was always something special about getting a real letter when you’re 10,000 miles away from home.
JEFF GREEN ’75 He was more than just a teacher. He was a mentor. He also had a major impact on forming my ideology and international views. I feel sorry for those future students who will not have the opportunity to learn from him.
From left to right: Tamas Szilagyi’s grandson, Zander ’21; daughter-in-law, Tara; son Steve; and granddaughter Carlin gathering under the shaded cover on the Yukevich Quad.
BRUCE BROWN ’83 Tim Waite [’83] reminded us of a class where Tamas once started to climb out a window, second floor, because of a classmate’s wrong answer to a question! REALLY.... he did goofy stuff you can’t even imagine in today’s world. BUT, it was so very memorable & that’s exactly why he did those things—to teach a vivid lesson the student would never forget
Steve Szilagyi toasting the crowd assembled for his father’s celebration of life event with a Hungarian favorite of Tamas's, “Bull’s Blood.”
ED MARKS ’68 I was on Stuhldreher Field with a couple of my soon-to-be-teammates before our first preseason practice when Coach Szilagyi came out with a bag of balls, laid the bag down, took out a ball, flicked it up in the air, and proceeded to dribble the ball the length of the field, the ball never touching anything but his head. This was 1966 for gosh sakes! You just didn’t see this in America back then. I couldn’t have asked for a better “formal” introduction. I was hooked and have been involved with soccer as a player and coach ever since.
David Conrad ’85 providing insight into the life of a remarkable man.
BRYANT MASON ’62 He always spoke with knowledge and information about European countries I had never visited. He whetted my interest for travel. I wished I had taken one of his classes. He arrived on campus in 1962, the year I graduated.

1985 FOOTBALL TEAM
The 1985 Football team clinched Kiski’s first Interstate Prep School League Championship since 1978. The championship wasn’t decided until a final come-from-behind win seemingly ripped from the movies. Kiski faced rival Shady Side Academy (also 3-0 in league play entering the final game) on Kiski’s Homecoming. Tom Coste managed to field a squib kick on a drenched field and return it for a touchdown as time elapsed. The team may have been known for its overall defensive prowess along with timely big plays, but the offense more than held its own, averaging over 21 points per game.
BOYS: Ross Baird, Lane Bender, McKinley Boyer, Matt Breman, Phil Carroll, John Ciesielski, Scott Cooper, Tom Coste, Lee Daubenspeck, Jim Duke, Bob Fleck, Mark Franklin, Mike Gallagher, Roy Geiselhart, Dave Goodwin, Gregg Gumbert, Ken Hinkle, Stephen Hitchcock, Kyung Sa Hong, Bill Hughes, Mike Hyland, Dave Kelly, Gary Kiser, Kyle Lengauer, Peter Maury, Alfie McCloy, John McSorley, Paul Minda, Pete Nastase, Rob Patterson, George Poknis, Jim Polahar, Joel Radman, Troy Seskey, Doug Spence, Ray Spera, Dave Straney, Marshall Trigona, Pat Whigham, Pete Zappas

1987-88 SWIMMING AND DIVING TEAM
The 1987-88 Kiski Swimming and Diving team entered the season in the unexpected position of not being the reigning Interstate Prep School League (IPSL) Champions for the first time in nine years. With uncommon levels of resolve, resiliency, and comradery, the team fought through challenges, including the loss of two top divers to season-ending injuries, to score impressive wins over key rivals and to finish with a near-perfect regular season record. After an impressive full-team effort to secure victory at the IPSL Championship, 11 swimmers competed in the Eastern Prep School Championships, seven of whom went on to earn All-America honors.
BOYS: Steve Ball, Sam Beatty, Mike Bennett, Jason Burkey, Drew Daly, Pete DeHaas, Steve Ferguson, Chris Gaydos, John Highlands, Brad Kosanovich, Jim Kucik, Andy Mahalingappa, Rachel McAtee, Dana Martinelli, Shay McCabe, Carl Miller, Brian Oliver, Robert Osvold, Jay Pignatello, Lee Potter, Dave Preslar, Phil Pringle, Dan Ream, Eric Rusak, Nick Sisk, Todd Swanson, Steve Szilagyi, Bryson VanNostrand

Golfing for Scholars
The 7th Annual Kiski School Golf Tournament
Another beautiful day of golf was enjoyed at The Pittsburgh Field Club in Fox Chapel, PA on Tuesday, September 20, 2022 to support Kiski Scholarships. The Kiski School’s Board of Trustees once again hosted the annual Kiski Golf Event and this year PNC Bank generously provided principle sponsorship for the outing.
The golfers were well-fueled for the day by a delightful lunch spread and in high spirits after receiving their gift packages. The course was in pristine condition and challenged even the best golfers in the group. Following play, the group gathered for cocktails and a brief program.

Class Notes
1940s
1 Beano Cook’s ’49 autobiography, Haven’t They Suffered Enough?: An Unbelievable Career in Sports, PR and Television, by John D. Lukacs is available on Amazon. “Going to Kiski was one of the best things to ever happen to me. If I hadn’t gone there, I doubt my life and career would have unfolded the way it did,” said Beano Cook.
1950s
2 Dr. James Hazlett ’53 and his wife Helaine celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on May 27, 2022 surrounded by their four children and ten of their twelve grandchildren at Kernwood Country Club in Salem, MA. After
a year at Kiski, Jim spent four years at the University of Michigan before attending the University of Pennsylvania Dental School, graduating in 1961. That is where he met his favorite dental hygienist, Helaine. After two years in the Air Force in Kansas City, Jim associated with Helaine’s father in his dental practice in Saugus, MA, finally retiring after fifty years in 2013. Jim is enjoying retirement playing a lot of BAD golf and still rooting for the Steelers.
3 Scott Campbell ’57 only recently retired from jumping out of planes with the WWII Airborne Demonstration Team! The journey was inspired by a 20year search for the next of kin of a WWII war friend of his father who lost his life in a jeep accident. Scott eventually found the grandniece of CPT Cleveland Fitzgerald!
4 Hugh “Whitey” Purnell Jr. ’59 and his friend Peg escaped their COVID containment fever in his 1971 Oldsmobile
Cutlass Supreme, which won a first place award at the Oldsmobile Club of America national convention in Murfeesboro, TN. They also visited the Biltmore Estate in Ashville, NC, the former home of George Vanderbilt and the largest house in America.
1960s
5 Chris Hill ’60 continues to enjoy cycling on New England roads, and kayaking in Narragansett Bay. He is also still researching and teaching philosophy at Brown University and his gratitude is everlasting for three inspirational Kiski mentors: Wade Mack ’46, Joseph Millar and John Pidgeon H’62.

8 Gerry Yukevich
(left) and Alexander “Joe” Allen
continued their annual tradition of meeting at Gerry’s home on Martha’s Vineyard for brunch. Joe has been vacationing on the Vineyard since he was a youth and discovered Gerry was living there. About 12 years ago, Joe’s aunt was raving about her new doctor who had an unusual last name. Joe knew the name well. Gerry’s brother Mike ’60 was the prefect in Joe’s dorm his first year at Kiski and Joe was the prefect in Gerry’s freshman dorm. The Kiski bond is alive and well.
10 Steve Szilagyi ’88, Associate Head of School for Advancement, enjoyed a great day of golf with alumni and long-term supporters of Kiski (left to right): Bob Jamison ’64, Colvin McCrady ’64, Steve and Duff McCrady ’61
11 Steve Szilagyi ’88 also recently enjoyed golfing and catching up with longtime and generous supporters of Kiski: (from left) Carl Kalnow ’68, Colvin McCrady ’64, and John Jacob ’89.
12 Rick Curtiss ’81 (right) valiantly responded to a call for help from Greg ’64 and Dimmie Zeigler (left). The Zeiglers were picking up their trailer for the
summer when Greg fell and injured his right knee while already dealing with a troubling infection in his left leg. He was taken to a hospital by ambulance for treatment. Rick didn’t hesitate when the weary travelers needed help retrieving the truck and trailer left behind and returning the pair to their home. “Kiski ties never die. I knew Rick growing up, what, sixty-five years ago? Still a strong connection,” said Greg.
13 George Lula ’66 married Julie Hammond Weir, formally of Middleburg, VA in June of 2021. The couple resides in Aiken, SC and enjoys a shared pursuit of all things equine.
14 What are the chances that two Kiski grads separated by 45 years are seated at the same table at a wedding? That happened this spring to Augie Luptak ’13 and Robert Thomas ’68

17 Vikram Gosain ’72 completed his third cross-country bicycle ride in July, 2022, from San Francisco to Times Square. The trek was 3,072 miles and
included over 70,000 feet of cumulative climbing. Prior cross-country bicycle rides were Seattle, WA to New York City, NY (seven years ago) and San Diego, CA to Jacksonville, FL (when he was 24). This one was definitely the most difficult of the three rides, due largely to the mountain grades on this route.
C. Augustus “Gus” Martin ’73 was recently confirmed as the founding Director of the new School of Public Service and Justice at California State University, Dominguez Hills. Gus is a nationally recognized expert on terrorism, homeland security, and criminal justice. He has also written many books concerning terrorism.
19 Steve Szilagyi ’88, had the pleasure of visiting with alumnus and Board of Visitors member, Stephen Friedberg ’74. The two Steves were able to share some good stories and laughs together. They also were able to catch up about many essential Kiski topics including: recent admission and fundraising results, endowment growth, and, new capital building projects being placed into motion.

The family is pictured with Ben’s mother Benja (left) in Luzern, Switzerland.
23 Love of travel and photos, along with his recent diagnosis, pushed Jason Hite ’93 to live life to the fullest and inspire others to do the same. Years of traveling with his camera finally turned his passions into a company that, “I can truly be proud to say it’s all mine,” shared Hite. You can find his work at newhitesproject.com.
24 Brian Ellis III ’94 (left) and his son Tamas visited with Steve Szilagyi ’88 during reunion weekend.
25 Major Brian Ellis III ’94 (doorway, black helmet) has come back out of “semi-retirement” to become a Teacher/ Advisor/Counselor (TAC) for the Corps of Cadets at Virginia Military Institute. TACs are immersed in every aspect of a cadet’s life and serve as instructors, mentors and guides during a cadet’s four-year college experience. Brian also returned to the skies, volunteering with a round canopy tactical parachute team, the Phantom Airborne Brigade. Phantom is comprised of retired and wounded veterans of the United States and other allied nations who were once paratroopers and who meet monthly to get back into the air with their comrades.

Rebuilding the Fern Hollow Bridge
Representatives from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation made a personal call to Andrew Swank ’97, President and Owner of Swank Construction Company, after the Fern Hollow Bridge collapsed in Pittsburgh on January 28, 2022 to ask them to take the lead on clean up and building the new bridge.
Immediate mobilization made an aggressive timetable possible, which will allow the new span to open before Christmas 2022. President Biden was in town and visited the site hours after the collapse. He returned on October 20th to celebrate the swift progress and vowed to return and walk across the new bridge once it is complete. He is pictured with Andrew.
CRAFTING A BOOK OF KISKI MEMORIES
We are working with Publishing Concepts Inc. (PCI), the company that creates our alumni directory every five years, on a new exciting product for our alumni community. PCI will soon use postcards (like the example shared here) and emails to reach out to begin Kiski’s Oral History Project!
PCI will use interviews regarding your favorite Kiski memories from specific categories like athletics or your favorite faculty member to compile a printed (or digital) coffee table book of unique stories that share common threads from all Kiski eras.

Kevin Scanlon ’92 14 th annual will’s gift
Will’s Gift is named in honor of E. William Turley ’64, one of the finest educators in Kiski’s history. Although he was not an artist himself in any traditional sense of the word, his 35 years on the campus could be called nothing but a masterpiece. His devotion to his students knew no bounds and he inspired many of them to be, if not artists, then whole and true versions of themselves. His gift was his passion for inquiry, for truth, and for the guts to accept the price of such a pursuit— attributes without which no fine artist can succeed. His gift was this kind of bravery and he gave of it every day.
On behalf of The Kiski School, Will’s Gift is given annually to an artist working in Western Pennsylvania. The goal is to assist with the continued health of
Pittsburgh’s creative community and to increase and develop Kiski’s strong collection in the visual arts. The hope is that the campus itself will become an archive and teaching center, a living and virtual gallery of the region’s finest work. “If enough small fires can light an entire community, let Will’s Gift be the fuel for one of them,” said David Conrad ’85, co underwriter of Will’s Gift along with Kristofer Rockwell ’90
This year’s Will’s Gift recipient is Kevin Scanlon ’92. Scanlon is an award winning photographer who has worked with an impressive array of celebrities, artists, musicians, athletes and everyday people. Recently, images from his coronavirus Mask Portrait Project were chosen for the American Photography Photo Annual, shortlisted for Communication
Arts Photo Annual, and garnered a grant from The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. The project continues as he bookends each image with an unmasked portrait of his subjects a year later.
Scanlon has lectured and taught workshops at high schools and colleges, including the Arts Center College of Design, Los Angeles Center for Photography, and organizations like the American Society for Media Photography.
“One of my early influences was Ben Stechschulte ’90,” mentioned Scanlon. “He introduced me to a lot of amazing photographers’ works and guided me with technique and strategy when I was a Kiski sophomore. I still see him now and then in NYC.”
Scanlon is originally from Pittsburgh, PA and now splits his time between Los Angeles, CA and Brooklyn, NY. You can view his work at kevinscanlon.com.

THANK YOU
Dear Friends:
We are proud to share each Kiski accomplishment with you, our community of alumni, parents and friends. After all, you are behind each of those achievements. You are co-authors of their life-changing journeys at our School.
This concept can be likened to a block of movie credits scrolling up a screen. Although the movie’s stars are understandably featured for promotional purposes, the credits list hundreds of contributors who made the project possible in its incomprehensibly complex detail. All involved are forever connected by the final product in the way that we welcome your sense of ownership of our results.
Within this annual report of giving we seek to recognize your philanthropic support of Kiski during the most recent year (July 1, 2021 – June 30, 2022). You have helped us to maintain our commitment to enrolling the most well-deserving boys regardless of their tuition needs— the stars of our annual production. You lift them to their greatest potential by investing in experiences that challenge and a supporting cast who nurtures them along the way.
Thank you for your thoughtful commitment to the latest volume of our ongoing mission to prepare young men to succeed in college and in life. Thank you also to our volunteer Class Captains, Kiski Fund Parent Committee members and all those who advocate for worthy investments in Kiski Boys and a sustained connection to our School. You have helped us to answer needs that grow exponentially over time by inspiring likeminded individuals to join our cause.
We hope that our paths will cross soon so that we may express our gratitude in person. Please never feel that you need an excuse, only the desire, to visit us on campus. In the meantime, know that we are grateful for all that you do to help our stars shine with undiminished brightness each year. Thank you!
With all good wishes,
Chris Brueningsen Head of School
Steven T. Szilagyi ’88, P’21 Associate Head of School for Institutional Advancement

THE TOWER SOCIETY
The Tower Society recognizes individuals who have designated Kiski as a beneficiary in their wills and/or estate plans and have informed Kiski and the Advancement Office of those intentions. Tower Society members demonstrate remarkable foresight in ensuring their legacies through a planned gift to Kiski. Gifts through the Tower Society generally include trusts, life and other insurance policies, charitable remainder trusts, charitable lead trusts, IRA charitable rollovers, and additional funds which enable you to structure a gift to maximize tax and financial benefits.

THE KISKI SCIENCE TRUST
In 2008, alumnus Elliott B. McConnell Jr. ’46, established
The Kiski Science Trust. The Kiski Science Trust is an endowed fund to be used for teaching as well as promotion of the sciences at Kiski. The Science Trust has also been generously supported by Harry Seibel ’00, Van Messer ’69, and Mr. McConnell’s family members. The fund benefits the sciences at Kiski by providing annual cash flow to purchase state-of-the-art scientific equipment, attain science-industry guest speakers, and explore the sciences outside of the classroom by allowing the students to attend science-related field trips. Sadly, Mr. McConnell passed in 2018 but his impact on science at Kiski will continue. His hope was to help Kiski be nationally recognized for science education. This trust provides an example of ways in which donor support for Kiski enables the School to achieve its goals and maintain excellence in all aspects of the educational experience.

Campaign Support
FOR THE BOYS
Dear Friends,
Kiski continues our commitment to raise funds to keep our School strong and growing. Our new For the Boys Campaign enables us to open our doors to boys who truly deserve to be at Kiski and who cannot afford it all on their own. Financial aid provides deserving students the opportunity of top-quality education which otherwise might be unobtainable and provides Kiski with a highly qualified student body from varied walks of life.
Since 2010, Kiski has awarded over $50 million in tuition assistance to nearly 700 families. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for financial aid. Enrollment of full-tuition international students was greatly impacted and reinforces that Kiski needs to continue to seek scholarship support. In addition, we are implementing financial and marketing initiatives to move Kiski into the future with high enrollment and impact. In 2019, Kiski was the first independent school in the United States to reset tuition; it is now 20% lower than peer institutions. This tuition reset led to great increases in inquiries and applications. Even with the impact of the pandemic, Kiski continues to enroll over 190 students annually and we anticipate growth in future years.
Kiski is on a positive course to impact the lives of more boys through increased financial aid offerings, the tuition reset, and increased outreach. Our admissions team is focused on attracting students
within our traditional markets as well as from new areas domestically and internationally to attract full-pay students along with those who may need financial aid.
For the Boys is poised to raise $5 million over the next three years for scholarships and financial aid from generous grants and gifts as well as through the Pennsylvania Educational Improvement Tax Credit Program and Special Purpose Entities (see page 66 for more information on EITC and SPE). Already over $1 million has been raised in new pledges and gifts during our early quiet phase of this new capital campaign for Kiski.
Kiski continues to provide boys the highest quality of education each and every day in the classroom, in the dorms, and on the playing fields. Your personal support of this new For the Boys Campaign will help many deserving students, and it will directly sustain the School and our important mission for many years to come.
Sincerely,
Steve Szilagyi ’88, P ’21 Associate Head of School for Advancement
to their first formal dinner of the 2021-22 school year.

Since the 2019-20 school year, Kiski raised over $3 million in scholarship funding and received over $500,000 in EITC and SPE annual support.
DONATE NOW
This campaign is a team effort and will be accomplished with a mixture of gifts of all sizes. Please consider giving what you can in addition to your Kiski Fund support to help deserving Kiski families in need of tuition assistance. Follow the QR code to give today!
63 THE KISKI SCHOOL BULLETIN 2021–2022 Annual Report of Giving
A thoughtful Kiski Donor owes $9,000 in PA taxes.
Our donor makes a $10,000 gift to support the scholarship need for eligible Kiski Boys from PA via EITC/SPE.
Our donor receives a 90% tax credit on the gift ($9,000), eliminating the PA tax burden.
100% of that gift supports Kiski Boys.
For a net cost of $1,000 to the donor, Kiski Boys receive $10,000 in life changing scholarship aid! (WIN-WIN!) $10K

HEAD OF SCHOOL CUP COMPETITION (Annual
Gifts Only)
Each year, we rely upon our fantastic Class Captains to energize and organize their classmates to come together to support Kiski. The Head of School Cup provides recognition to the classes and Class Captains who have made an extraordinary effort to give back to Kiski. The awards for Most Dollars and Most Donors are given to classes contributing the largest amount and having the highest number of donors to annual giving from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022. Likewise, classes have the opportunity to achieve the award for Highest Percentage of Participation in the fiscal year. This gives classes that have fewer members a chance to achieve recognition for their efforts. The Highest Percentage of Participation award is a competition for classes with at least ten active classmates.

WHY GIVE TO KISKI?
Perhaps you are an alumnus and would like to contribute to the education of our current class of Kiski Boys, just as alumni donated to The Kiski Fund when you were a current student. Or, maybe you are a current parent whose gift will support the faculty and programs that make Kiski so special to your family. Maybe you are a “Friend of Kiski” and simply believe in the good work we are doing with boys. Regardless of your motivation to give, your gift will be greatly appreciated by the boys that receive your support.
YOU MAY THINK...
I can’t to give a lot, so my gift doesn’t matter.
NOT TRUE! Gifts of all sizes speak to your belief in a Kiski education. Your healthy participation has helped us to secure large foundation grants because they see your giving as a vote of confidence in Kiski.

The annual fund supports extras the Boys don’t need.
NOT TRUE! The annual fund is built into the budget each year and covers expenses that are central to Kiski’s unparalleled experience.
You can make a difference in the lives of Kiski Boys. Scan the QR code to donate today!
YOU MAY THINK...
NOT TRUE! If Kiski was your house, capital campaigns would cover non-annual expenses like putting on a new roof. The annual fund would cover recurring expenses like electric bills. Even if you need to replace the roof for the long term stability of the house, you still need to pay your electric bill.
Kiski has raised millions of dollars in its capital campaign. They don’t need my annual giving support too.
