FROM THE PRESIDENT

DEAR NOTRE DAME FAMILY: As the new President of Notre Dame High School, I am excited to present our annual Notre Dame Journal which appropriately focuses on the theme and question: “Where Will Notre Dame Lead You?” As you read the outstanding stories of accomplishment featuring our current students and graduates, you will begin to realize as I did, that “The Sky’s the Limit.” Case in point being our cover story featuring Tim Holland ‘06 and the amazing journey which led to his appointment in American Samoa as a commanding officer of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Global Monitoring Division. As you read the pages of this ND Journal, you will also discover the truly extraordinary accomplishments of the Class of 2019 in which 314 graduates were awarded more than $44 million in scholarships. This is a great testimony to the dedicated faculty and staff of Notre Dame who continue to shape the next generation of leaders, preparing them for college and eventually the workforce. One of these graduates, Sanjana Buddi ‘19 is an example of a young woman who took leadership to the next level as a student at Notre Dame. In 2015, she travelled to India and was so inspired by her visit that she created her own non-profit which raised over $10,000 for school supplies in the poorest regions of India. As if that was not enough, at only 17 years old Sanjana gave a motivational TEDx speech in Cape May regarding this leadership work. Notre Dame also inspires leadership in the critical areas of diversity and race relations. Two of our recent graduates, Nabia Evans ‘19 and Shomari Hollis ‘19, were awarded Certificates of Accomplishment for the Princeton Prize in Race Relations at Princeton University for their work with the SHADES Club at Notre Dame to fostering “greater inclusion among the student body.” The work of these two graduates has left a legacy for the next generation of leaders to follow. Throughout the ND Journal, you can clearly discern that leadership, the “sky’s the limit” mentality, and service are resonant of the ethos of a Notre Dame education. Stories abound of student-athletes making a difference in their community through service and student-artists whose hard work has led them to perform and act at the highest level of artistic expression. Thank you for your support of Notre Dame High School and our critical mission to produce the next generation of young women and men who will make a difference in our world, guided by their faith and the wonderful lessons learned at their beloved alma mater. Go Irish!

THE SKY’S THE LIMIT

Tim Holland and members of the NOAA Corps clean the coral at the Pearl and Hermes Atoll.

s a child, Tim Holland ’06 dreamed of being an astronaut someday. With a deep desire to explore the great wonders of outer space, Tim, a Lieutenant Junior Grade with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Officer Corps, more commonly known as the NOAA Corps, looks to cultivate his passion for space travel by studying our planet first. Tim invited Notre Dame students to explore his unique career path when he was on campus this spring for one of our Career Exploration Days. Alumni from varied vocations have visited with our students to share their education and career experiences. It is a wonderful way for students to learn about different career opportunities and to foster meaningful connections with alumni. Tim’s advice to students — “Keep moving forward. Recognize opportunities that are presented to you, perhaps in the strangest way, and be grateful for those from which you have learned.” Tim has learned quite a bit from his time at Notre Dame. He excelled in the classroom, the pool and lacrosse field. “The rigorous academic curriculum helped to prepare me for the challenges in college, and now, my career. And, being an athlete helped develop drive, purpose, and leadership skills that I use in my work today.” When he enrolled at Syracuse University as an Aerospace Engineering major, he continued with sports as a member of the Men’s Division 1 Swim Team. It took him a while to

develop the time management skills needed to balance a full engineering course load and train enough to complete at the D-1 level. When he was starting to apply for internships, he realized his grades from his ﬁrst few semesters kept his GPA below his peers. He knew he needed to do something to make up for his lackluster GPA, so in his junioxgineering School to let him work in his engineering lab with PhD students. By the time he graduated, he had recommendations from the Dean for whatever path he chose to advance next. Tim told our students “There is great value in networking and making personal connections, no matter how old you are or how advanced in your career you get.” Before graduating from Syracuse in 2010, he applied for a number of engineering and service jobs but did not receive any offers. At the end of that summer, Tim heard from a professor at the University of North Dakota that there was an opportunity for him to attend graduate school there. He had heard of the professor at a conference during his undergraduate study and sent him an email requesting more information about the work he was doing testing space suits, but he never heard back from the professor. It was over a year before he responded to Tim’s email and one month until the start of the new academic year. So Tim packed up his car and drove to Grand Forks, North Dakota to attend graduate school at the University of North Dakota where they have the only working collegiate space suit laboratory in the United States. There Tim helped to build an inﬂatable habitat

Through our Career Exploration Days, we aim to expose our students to a variety of potential career interests and the unique paths toward these vocations.

test bed and designed a number of components for space suits. After graduating with a Master’s of Science degree in Space Studies, Tim went on to obtain an internship with NASA’s National Space Biomedical Research Institute at Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, with a focus on long-term deep space habitats. He spent time at the Neutral Buoyancy Lab where astronauts are trained in space suits. Tim also participated in the design of a test bed for a lunar lander with the NASA Robotics Academy. He was later hired fulltime at NASA as a Biomedical Flight Controller for the International Space Station working in Mission Control, hand-in-hand with the flight surgeon, to make sure that the crew had everything they needed to maintain optimal health and safety. Again, connections were key. “I got my job in Mission Control because I met an astronaut at a conference. I introduced myself and asked him questions about space suits to which he didn’t know the answers. When I followed up with him, he put me in touch with one of his colleagues who helped to open the door for my job at NASA.” While working at NASA was a dream, the explorer in Tim was aching to get out of the concrete bunker that housed Mission Control where he was employed for four years. Adventure was calling, and he applied for and was offered a commission with the NOAA Corps. NOAA Corps officers serve on the sea, on land, and in the air to support NOAA’s environmental science and stewardship mission. Tim spent two and a half years aboard NOAA Ship Oscar Elton Sette sailing around the main eight Hawaiian Islands, Guam, and the Northwest Hawaiian islands in the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument. One of his most memorable missions was at the Pearl and Hermes Atoll where the crew spent a month removing derelict fishing gear from the coral reef. He was even bumped on the back by a 15 foot-long tiger shark while recovering scientific instruments from the sea floor. Currently, Tim is assigned to NOAA’s Global Monitoring

Division (GMD) where they have observatories based in Barrow Alaska, Mauna Loa Hawaii, American Samoa and the South Pole. He spent a month leading a research team at the Barrow Atmospheric Baseline Observatory where they tracked greenhouse gases, halocarbons and surface radiation and studied the ozone layer. Now stationed in American Samoa, Tim is the commanding ofﬁcer of the observatory for a year and then will return to GMD’s headquarters in Boulder, Colorado to train with the U.S. Antarctic Program to go to the South Pole. He will spend 13 months at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole station leading the science team. Tim is still on track to reach the ﬁnal frontier. After his assignment with GMD is complete, he is looking to apply to become an NOAA aviator. And, as always he is waiting for NASA to open up applications for the next round of astronaut selection. The sky is literally the limit for Tim Holland.

“Today we are moving on to the next chapter of our lives; for some of us that is college, for others a career, and still others service in the military. So when we look towards our future and dream of a path we can follow, we know there are going to be hard decisions we will have to make; and we know we can meet these challenges and tests, and when we do it-it will show us how much we are capable of overcoming obstacles. These tests help us learn to accept the situation we ﬁnd ourselves in, and to come out stronger on the other side of the adversity we are facing.”

— OLIVIA MAE PANKO, Valedictorian, Notre Dame High School

By Mary Stadnyk, Associate Editor [Reprinted with permission from The Monitor, Catholic newspaper of the Trenton Diocese.]

“G

oing to Notre Dame was a true blessing for me” said Sanjana Buddi of her four-year experience in the Lawrenceville high school. “Going to a school where a teacher will know your name, even if you haven’t had their class in three years, and stop to talk to you, makes you feel as if you are a part of a family.”

The weekend of June 8-9 saw the Notre Dame community bid farewell not only to 314 graduates, but also to the school’s president, MARY LIZ IVINS, who retired on June 30. The Saturday Baccalaureate Mass celebrated on campus by FATHER JASON PARZYNSKI, Chaplain, included the longstanding tradition of students presenting roses to their mothers. The following day, the graduates received their diplomas during a commencement ceremony held at the CURE Insurance Arena, and heard compelling speeches by class valedictorian Olivia Mae Panko, and salutatorian Matthew Bourne Reed. “We have undergone many adjustments together at Notre Dame, but our biggest change is right around the corner’’ said Reed, recalling refurbishments made to the school building, accomplishments achieved and challenges met by students and sports teams. “With such a big transformation ahead of us, it is easy to

get scared” he said. “However, I know we can all get through the change that is coming...like the school that nurtured us, we can only grow and meet the challenges of positive change.” Principal JOANNA BARLOW said the Class of 2019 students “truly realized their full potential in our faith-ﬁlled environment, and their accomplishments have exceeded expectations.” “Members of the Class of 2019 are some of the most academically strong to have passed through the halls of Notre Dame as evidenced in their college acceptances” she said, citing institutions such as Boston College, Duke University, Northwestern University and the University of Southern California as examples. Barlow also acknowledged the students’ generosity and selﬂessness that helped to grow and expand the school’s service program. Additionally, class members’ participation on sports teams “brought pride and honor to Notre Dame through county, state and league championships.” Graduate Patrick DiPasquale said “My experience at Notre Dame was, in one word, amazing...Because of [it], I know I am ready to take on the challenges of college and beyond.”

HONORING

TEACHERS AND STAFF

t a rowdy spring pep rally, MRS. MORGAN WRIGHT ‘06 WALTER and DR. BRIAN BRIDGEWATER were announced as the 2019 Teachers of the Year. MR. DAVE CHEBRA ‘98 was named Staff Member of the Year. Nominated by students, parents, faculty and staff, Teachers of the Year are awarded annually. This was the second year Notre Dame awarded a Staff Member of the Year. Mrs. Walter, a faculty member in the Mathematics Department, began teaching at Notre Dame in 2014. “She is a teacher who puts students first,” said a parent about Mrs. Walter. “Because of her efforts, my son finished with a B and, more importantly, for the first time, he finally felt like he understood math. After taking her class, he is now more confident and determined to pursue his dream of being an engineer.” Dr. Bridgewater, a faculty member in the Science Department since 2015, shared these sentiments when speaking about his students.

he 2018–19 Notre Dame Yearbook was dedicated to MRS. EILEEN

PALAZZA. Mrs. Palazza has taught

U.S. History 2 and Honors U.S. History 2 for the past seven years.

“At the start of every semester, in every class, I tell my students that I am the luckiest teacher in the world because I have the best students in the world” said Dr. Bridgewater." I tell that to everyone I meet too, and I mean every word of it. I always strive to work with my students and steer clear of having them work for me. That way we’re all part of the same team — something that helps them now, but also prepares those who are headed to a career in the sciences for the team-based realities of how science is really done.” Mr. Chebra, A/V Media Specialist in the Technology Department, worked tirelessly to prepare Notre Dame’s newly-renovated auditorium for its spring musical and monthly Liturgies. He also works with students in our Broadcast Studio where they produce morning announcements and ND commercials. As the A/V Media Specialist, he works in the auditorium technology booth where he oversees the sound and lighting for Notre Dame productions. “It’s an absolute honor to be selected as Staff Member of the Year. To know the work I do here is appreciated ﬁlls my heart” said Mr. Chebra.

ACADEMICS

otre Dame was proud to announce the recipients of our recently established Academic Merit Scholarship Awards. One full and two half scholarships are offered annually to incoming freshmen. Recipients are selected based on their performance on the High School Placement Exam (HPST) or the Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT), written essays and interviews conducted with school administration. The recipient of the Fitzpatrick Family Merit Scholarship, offering full tuition, was Sasha Salins. Sasha was an 8th grader at Saint Augustine of Canterbury School in Kendall Park, NJ. Her extracurricular activities include community service and performing arts. The Mary Ann Liptak Merit Scholarships award half tuition to its recipients. The two winners of these scholarships were Aidan McGovern and Lucia Samuel. Aidan attended Millstone Township Middle School. Outside of school, he is involved in theatre and visual arts.

t only 17-years-old, Sanjana Buddi ‘19 proved that she has the power to make an incredible impact in the world. On October 14, 2018, Sanjana gave a motivational speech at the TEDx Cape May. She was one of the ﬁve featured students who spoke at the “Common Ground” themed event. TED is a non-proﬁt organization devoted to spreading ideas and knowledge through short, but powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged. Today, it covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages. To help spark conversation in local communities, TED created a program called TEDx, which is held at the regional level. Typically, only adults are asked to speak at TEDx events. It was an extreme honor for Sanjana to give her speech titled “The Power of Youth Changing the World," at this prestigious event. It discussed her involvement with the organization

PURE Youth. PURE Youth is a group whose mission is to provide education tools and raise money for schools in India. Sanjana was inspired to work with the organization after her trip to India in 2015. She visited the high school that her parents attended, which was rather eye-opening. She left the school crying after realizing the opportunities she had that these students in India did not. When she arrived back in the United States, she was motivated to begin work with the charity. She created her own branch of PURE Youth in Lawrence, NJ and has assisted in establishing chapters across the US. Sanjana funded her chapter through fundraising, bake sales and a “GoFundMe” page. With the help of her friends and generous donations, she raised over $10,000 which she put toward buying supplies for schools in India. Since May 2017, Sanjana’s chapter of PURE Youth has helped over 30 schools and 8,000 children. Last summer, she ﬂew to India to volunteer at some of the schools for which she raised money.

“After I visited these schools with malnourished children with torn dresses, bare feet and aspiration in their eyes, it was an eye-opening experience for me,” said Sanjana. “I wanted to help them fight their barriers and they helped me fight mine.” At her TEDx talk, Sanjana discussed all of her accomplishments working with the charity and how her trip to India has impacted her life. Her main message was youth empowerment. Her goal was to inspire other teenagers to realize that they too can make an impact in the world. Sanjana credited her time at Notre Dame for helping her pursue this work. “Notre Dame has pushed me to become a more confident person and pursue service” said Sanjana. “I don’t know where I would be without the support and assistance of my teachers, classmates and school administrators.”

All of the candidates participated in the RCIA Program here at Notre Dame before the official induction. In the words of our Chaplain, FATHER JASON PARZYNSKI, the RCIA Program is “designed by Bishops and Catechists around the world to prepare those who want to become Catholic.” The RCIA Program stands for Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults. It is a program designed to help those who desire to enter into a faith-filled community within the church. This was the third year Notre Dame had students complete the RCIA process and the first year for a staff member.

Notre Dame was blessed to be able to implement the RCIA process and Conﬁrmation preparation into our school. MRS. EILEEN HART, a faculty member in the Religion Department, played an essential role in the RCIA Program. For a number of years, she worked as the Coordinator for the RCIA Program at the Diocese of Trenton and carried her experience over to Notre Dame.

Matthew Rogers ‘21 received Conﬁrmation and First Eucharist. Samantha Bensch ‘19, Dirk DePompo ‘21, Sam Albers ‘22, Daniel Bensch ‘22 and Stella Scudillo ‘22 received the Sacrament of Conﬁrmation. Faculty assistant and former teacher, MR. ROBERT WOOD, was received into the Catholic Church at this liturgy.

BUNDLES FOR BABIES

otre Dame’s Celebrate Life and Feminism Clubs joined forces this past May to spearhead a baby item drive to beneﬁt Choice One Crisis Pregnancy Center in Lawrenceville, NJ. The mission of the center is to provide women and teens with practical assistance and positive alternatives to abortion. They are a not-for-proﬁt organization that is rooted in faith. They believe that God loves unconditionally and completely, and that his love requires us to care.

Each new mom who comes to Choice One is provided with a baby “bundle” for their newborn. Each bundle contains items such as diapers, wipes, onesies, socks, sleepers, bibs, stuffed animals, sweater sets, outﬁts, blankets, washcloths and receiving blankets. New items for the bundles were generously donated by hundreds of Notre Dame students, faculty and staff. Members of both the Celebrate Life and Feminism clubs bundled the items, placed them in baskets and wrapped them. Due to such an outpouring of support from our

Notre Dame students, the two clubs were able to bundle 41 baskets to donate to Choice One. A caravan of students drove the bundles to Choice One on May 29. The crisis pregnancy center extended a sincere thank you to all of those who participated in this drive.

STUDENTS ATTEND MARCH FOR LIFE

The annual trip to Washington D.C. is held to observe the anniversary of the Supreme Court Decision, Roe v. Wade. After they arrived in Washington, the group met with Counsel for Jersey, Mr. Daniel Smith and Democratic Senator, Cory Booker. Avery Immordino ‘20 and Anna Stout ‘21 read their prepared statements about the sanctity of human life. The students spoke very eloquently and intelligently on the need for our laws to support life in all stages and at all ages. They provided the position of the Catholic Church, as well as the science that substantiates the fact that life begins at conception. They spoke maturely and calmly about a topic that has, unfortunately, become so controversial.

BISHOP DEDICATES NEW ALTAR

ONSIGNOR WALTER E. NOLAN continues to bless the Notre Dame community with his generosity. This past year, he donated a new altar for our Chapel. On March 31, we were honored to have Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M. celebrate Mass and perform "The Order of Dedication of an Altar.”

The Bishop was joined by Msgr. Nolan, FR. DENNIS APOLDITE (former Notre Dame Chaplain) and FR. JASON PARZYNSKI, our current Chaplain, to concelebrate the Mass. The sacred ceremony, performed prior to the Celebration of the Eucharist, included four steps: anointing the altar with chrism, making it a symbol of Christ, burning incense on the altar to signify Christ’s sacriﬁce, covering the altar to prepare for the Liturgy of the Eucharist and ﬁnally, lighting the altar with candles. The candles were lit to represent Christ as a light in this world, shining out in the church and through it in the whole human family. Following the Mass, Bishop O’Connell blessed our Blessed Mother and St. Joseph statues, as well as the altar votive candles, which were donated by Fr. Apoldite.

After the march down Constitution Avenue, the students walked past the Supreme Court and proceeded to the Rayburn House Office Building. Students were greeted by Republican Congressman Chris Smith, who represents the 4th District in New Jersey. Congressman Smith is a very strong supporter of laws that promote the dignity and sanctity of human life. Congressman Smith spoke with our students and encouraged them to get involved and make a difference. He shared that there are many opportunities to intern with his office, both in New Jersey, as well as in Washington. This was a memorable day for our students. They learned first-hand how to participate in civil discourse in our nation’s Capitol with those who make and affect laws. Our students did so in a mature and sophisticated manner so that their voices could be heard.

STUDENT LIFE

he Notre Dame community joined together on November 14 for the 2nd Annual Hoops for Hope charity basketball tournament. Even bigger than last year, 294 students and 12 faculty members participated. 74 students volunteered from the Celebrate Life Club, SHADES Club, Justice Club and the Service Club. The idea for the charity basketball tournament originated with the Notre Dame SHADES Club, whose members wanted to work together with other clubs and organizations within Notre Dame toward a common goal. Last year, all proceeds from the tournament went to the Hurricane Relief Fund, to aid those in Puerto Rico and Dominica who were impacted by Hurricane Maria. This past year, proceeds went directly to the New Hope Hospital in Haiti. This hospital serves more than 250,000 people who live in poverty. A friend to Notre Dame, DJ Carlos Hendricks, returned for his second year to provide music for the tournament. He expressed his deep gratitude to the students and faculty for their efforts to make a difference in Haiti. In addition to monetary donations, the SHADES Club collected toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, batteries and other necessities, that patients in the hospital might need.

MRS. EILEEN MARX, a faculty member and one of the SHADES Club moderators said, “We discovered how wonderful people are to share their talents and time with everyone. Any student, teacher or staff member we asked responded with such support and enthusiasm for the cause, and that’s what ND is all about.” Cortaz Williams ’20, a SHADES Club member, designed the logo for the event, which was printed on t-shirts that were given to every participant in the tournament. For the second year, AnnMarie Crivelli ’80, owner of Destination Athlete®, donated 500 t-shirts for the tournament. Forty-six teams joined together and participated in the exciting tournament. In addition to the supplies collected, a total of $3,775 dollars was raised for the New Hope Hospital in Haiti. Many thanks to members of the SHADES Club, Celebrate Life Club, MRS. EILEEN MARX, MRS.

It is a time when communities come together in unity and faith to work toward justice, peace, love and the dignity of life for all people. Members of the Notre Dame SHADES, Celebrate Life and Justice Clubs participated in the liturgy and presented a special program following the Mass. The short program, narrated by Shomari Hollis ‘19, Dan Argate ‘19 and Jocelyn Crum ‘19 began with a poem by Langston Hughes entitled “I Dream a World.” Then, Ruth Nebo ‘19 and Sabrina Williams ‘20 shared their beautiful Gospel voices with their rendition of the song “He Wants it All.” Following the soloists, African American dance styles were performed by Jharia Morris ‘19, Nabia

Eva Pierrot ‘19, a member of the SHADES Club reﬂected on the importance of this Mass. “This program is really important to me because it’s a fun way to showcase culture and religion. Not only are we coming together to grow in our faith, but we are also exposing the Notre Dame community to African American art and heritage.” Sabrina Thomas added, “We need to have this program to be aware and to make people more open. I think no one was expecting what we did in our performances, and it left everyone really shocked because it was very unique.”

STUDENTS ATTEND 4TH ANNUAL SHADES RETREAT By Karissa Chen ‘19

he Notre Dame SHADES Club held its 4th Annual Retreat at the Church of St. Ann in Lawrenceville on April 5. The theme for the day-long retreat was “Becoming...Becoming Me, Becoming Us, Becoming More!” This theme was derived from Michelle Obama’s autobiography, “Becoming” centered around one’s journey of growing, evolving and becoming the person they aspire to be.

Students were warmly welcomed by PRINCIPAL BARLOW at the start of the retreat. The retreat began with a Prayer Service, featuring songs performed by Sabrina Williams ‘20 and Jharia Morris ‘19, a worship dance performed by Nabia Evans ‘19 and Jharia Morris ‘19 and reﬂections by the leaders of the SHADES retreat.

Students joined small groups for sessions centered on the “Becoming Me” aspect of the retreat. The group sessions consisted of self-identity activities and discussion questions, allowing students to reﬂect on their time at Notre Dame. There was a panel discussion entitled “Becoming Us,” which focused on maintaining students’ culture, race and identity as they enter college and the workplace. The panelists shared their background and experiences from their professional or academic life, while answering questions from students. The panelists included Dr. Dwayne Proctor, Chair of the Board of Governors of the NAACP, Senior Advisor to the President and CEO of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation; Ms. Nicole Bronzan,

Senior Communications Ofﬁcer at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and former editor at the New York Times; Dr. Lisa Sanon-Jules, Assistant Dean of the Honors College at Rutgers University; Mr. Dwayne Curry, a Program Director of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Mr. Mubarak Lawrence, who works with Rising Sons, a non-proﬁt organization in Philadelphia.

PRINCETON PRIZE IN RACE RELATIONS RECIPIENTS

abia Evans ‘19 and Shomari Hollis ‘19 were recognized at the 2019 Awards Ceremony and Reception for the Princeton Prize in Race Relations of Central and Southern New Jersey. The ceremony was held on May 1 at the John Maclean House at Princeton University. The senior students were awarded Certiﬁcates of Accomplishment, in recognition for their work in challenging their school and community to promote racial equity, respect and understanding of all people. Shomari Hollis founded Notre Dame’s African-American Club and was its co-president. He was responsible for recruiting many of its original members. In order to encourage greater inclusion among the student body, the organization is now called the SHADES Club. As a freshman, Shomari helped to organize and plan the ﬁrst SHADES retreat which has now become an important annual school event. Each year, more than 100 SHADES members attend these retreats, as well as representatives of many other clubs and athletic teams. He was responsible for organizing several panels at each of these retreats, one of them being “Taking a Stand on Taking a Knee.” During his sophomore year, Shomari was involved in planning a presentation to Notre Dame’s faculty on racial issues. Shomari also produced an educational video that highlighted this presentation. The video was shown to the entire school community during the Black History Month liturgy and is now shown to the incoming freshman class and new teachers at Notre Dame.

Shomari’s advisor, MRS. ROSE FITZPATRICK ‘75 STEVENSON, says that “It is rare during my 16 years of teaching for me to say that a student has come along and truly changed the hearts and minds of a school community. With honesty, I can say that student is Shomari Hollis.” Nabia Evans was a member of the Leadership Council for the SHADES Club and was crucial in the planning and implementation of several historic events at Notre Dame High School. Throughout high school, Nabia worked to inspire open and honest communications about race and diversity among students and staff. Committed to expanding the understanding of the rich traditions of African American history, Nabia led events that positively impacted the atmosphere and culture of Notre Dame. She helped to organize three annual retreats that focus on engaging students and faculty and serve as platforms for honesty and understanding between students and staff. One of Nabia’s most signiﬁcant contributions was her leadership in planning and delivering a traditional African American prayer service with her family, at the ﬁrst retreat. The prayer service was such a success that it has become a tradition on these annual retreats. Shomari and Nabia were both sponsored for this award by MRS. EILEEN C. MARX, a World Religions teacher and faculty moderator of the SHADES Club at Notre Dame High School.

SHADES stands for: S: South America; H: Haiti and Honduras; A: African Americans, Africans, Asians and All Americans; D: Dominican Republic and the countries of the Caribbean; E: Europeans, Ethiopians and Everyone in our School; S: So many different races, religions, cultures and nationalities.

FAITH THROUGH MUSIC

ortions of this story are used with permission from The Monitor.

ND Journal

During the Diocesan Year of Youth decreed by Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., The Monitor recognized young people who are living their faith, doing their best and making a difference in the community. Chad Nelson ‘19, was featured in the August 29, 2018 edition.

He began to turn his faith into music when he entered 8th grade. He originally began writing and recording songs for fun, but it soon turned into one of his biggest hobbies.

Chad takes his faith very seriously and incorporates it into his everyday life. He is a member of St. Mary of the Assumption Cathedral in Trenton. “I talk to God almost on a daily basis, and I look to him for strength and courage in everything that I do. He’s brought me a long way” shared Chad. “Growing up in Catholic school and just being in that setting with prayers every morning, every afternoon and weekly Masses — it’s helped me grow in that environment. I look to God for help in my activities like music, sports and my daily life.” Chad attended Catholic school his entire life, beginning in elementary school, St. Gregory the Great Academy and continuing on to Notre Dame High School. His faith was strengthened by his Catholic school education, along with Sunday services with his family.

“I had a natural ability to ﬂow with my lyrics and wordplay with metaphors. It just came to me” said Chad. “After eighth grade … I wanted to get serious with it.” Chad used SoundCloud to release his ﬁrst small album of songs that he titled, “Written Scriptures 1.0.” It wasn’t long after he released two full albums titled, “Written Scriptures 2.0” and “Evolution.” Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M. and the Diocese even caught word of Chad Nelson’s work through a video that highlighted the “Diocesan Year of Youth.”

According to The Monitor, Chad wrote a rap song about young people and their talents and unity to celebrate the Year of Youth. The video was produced by the diocesan Department of Multimedia Production and released on their YouTube channel. “A lot of people ask me, ‘How do you still find the inspiration to write so many songs?’” Chad said. “It’s crazy to think how many songs I’ve written by now that just come to me, but God is a big part of why I’m able to continue, to be able to write and find that inspiration in my music, and to keep my content clean. It’s intriguing for a lot of my listeners. [God’s] just always been present in my music and hopefully he will continue to be.” Along with recording his music, Chad was also a member of the Notre Dame Varsity Soccer team and Campus Ministry. Chad hopes to continue his athletics through intramural teams in the future. Regarding his faith, he has definite plans to continue his faith-filled journey in college through a Campus Ministry program.

nthony “TJ” Gilmer ’19, travelled to Fort-Liberté, Haiti for a mission trip over the Christmas holiday.

TJ was there for two weeks with a group from a Christ-Centered Church called Central, located in Ewing, NJ where his father is the Pastor of Spiritual Development. TJ and his team worked to ﬁnish a local school that was under construction for ﬁve years. He was a part of the construction team and assisted in building large shelves to store papers and supplies inside the building. There was also a medical clinic team working at the school.

LIFE-CHANGING HOLIDAY IN HAITI By Christina Morris ‘19

During his time in Haiti, TJ helped feed homeless individuals at local churches and almost two-thousand children inside of the school. “The highlight of my trip was feeding the kids” said TJ. “We had rounds of kids that would come in singing chants and I would just think that this is a once-ina-lifetime experience. They seemed so happy despite their circumstances.” “Service for me means being a blessing to others” said TJ. “I feel like we’re something special when we’re able to help out others and see a smile on their face. It really makes me proud of what I’m doing.”

STUDENTS TRAVEL ABROAD By Christina Morris ‘19

Kaylee McEvoy ‘19 and Christina Morris ‘19 both traveled to Spain and spent multiple weeks enriched in the culture, cuisine and language of the country. Kaylee visited with Putney Student Travel, a program for students interested in language, while Christina visited family and friends for six weeks. Both Kaylee and Christina have been passionate about the Spanish language since their freshman year of high school. Both students agreed that their time spent in Spain allowed them to strengthen their vocabulary and conversation. While in Spain, Kaylee attended lessons on grammar, history and geography. Christina visited the Cathedral of St. James in Santiago de Compostela, where she attended a mass with pilgrims who had recently completed a religious walk. “Seeing the pilgrims after they completed this monumental religious journey was so moving for me,” Christina shared.“I hope one day in the future I will have the opportunity to participate in this pilgrimage.” Mia Min ‘19, also traveled internationally this past summer. She was part of a three week study abroad program in Germany. Mia lived with a host family, attended classes at a German High School and explored the historic streets of Passau.

“This experience made me feel more connected to Germany than I ever was,” said Mia. “I’m really looking forward to this school year with my academics and, of course, the German Club.” Faculty member, MADAME MARINA SUES, and 10 of her students traveled to France this past June, to visit historic sites such as the Eiffel Tower and the Palace of Versailles. In addition to exploring Paris, they also explored the Loire Valley, where they visited the beautiful Chateaux along the Loire River, Mont Saint Michel in Brittany and the infamous beaches of Normandy. Students, including Mia Taylor ‘20, used the French skills they learned in class to communicate with locals around the city. Faculty member HOPE BAUCH and students Lauren Linder ‘19, Sara Haas ‘19 and 20 other Notre Dame students traveled to Alaska. The trip taught them about the diverse ecosystems of the state, permafrost and how climate change is impacting society. “Going to Alaska opened my eyes to the true beauty of the world around us,” said Lauren. “I came back with a new found passion to protect the Earth for future generations.” The time spent exploring these unique cultures allowed these students to come back more enriched and prepared for the upcoming school year.

CELEBRATING THE 10TH ANNUAL PINK OUT By Christina Morris ‘19

he 10th Annual Notre Dame Pink Out football game took place on October 26, 2018. The special half-time anniversary event was sponsored by ND Cares, a club mentored by MS. DIANE WARGO, dedicated to providing comfort and support to breast cancer patients in our community.

Students honored all of those impacted by breast cancer, by wearing the Pink Out shirts during the school day on October 25. The logo for the shirt was designed by Cortaz Williams ‘20, an AP Art student and a member of the Varsity Football Team. During the ceremony, Notre Dame honored 43 survivors and angels of

breast cancer. Hair stylists from Salon Artigiano in Hamilton, NJ cut the hair of over 60 young ladies. The hair from these students, adults and alumni was given to Pantene Beautiful Lengths and was used to make wigs for cancer patients.

The Performing Arts Department worked tirelessly to perfect this musical, and made sure it was one to remember. Nick Potocki ‘19, a member of the pit orchestra for this production, reﬂected on his experience in Performing Arts at Notre Dame. “I’ve been in the pit orchestra all four years at Notre Dame and I have been involved in dozens of productions over the years.

his past year, Notre Dame High School Performing Arts students were proud to present, The Twelve.

The drama is based on Reginald Rose’s 12 Angry Men that follows the jury in a homicide trial of a young man who is accused of murdering his own father. The jury of 12 men must decide if he is guilty. If he is found guilty, he will be sentenced to death for his crimes. Although their decision is once unanimous, a reenactment of the murder and additional testimonies forces the jurors to reconsider. Discrimination based on race, background and their own troubled family relationships, all impacts the ﬁnal decision. Are these men able to put aside their differences and come to a decision? Or will their work result in a mistrial? Only our audiences knew the answer.

AWARD-WINNING STUDENT COMPOSER

NDJournal

By Christina Morris ‘19

sabella Dussias ‘21 is an award-winning composer of Contemporary and Classic Music. This past year, Isabella composed the music for Notre Dame’s Spirit Video. The video, which is shown to prospective families and students, highlights the multitude of academic, athletic and performing arts opportunities available at Notre Dame. “Composing music for the Spirit video was a lot of fun,” said Dussias. “It was a privilege to use my passion of composing music to promote the school that I love.” The video captured classes, Campus Ministry activities, after school sports, orchestra and Madrigal rehearsals, and much more. Isabella composed various melodies throughout the video to correspond with the shift between activities shown. She divided the video into different categories and decided which melodies would be used based on those groups. “For athletics, I used melodies that were more upbeat to match with the excitement of sports games,” said Dussias. “During clips of service work I chose to use melodies that were more emotional and that worked with the activities being shown.”

To compose such music, Isabella used a software program called “Logic.” She plugged a keyboard into her computer and used keystrokes to generate different sounds. Isabella has been a member of the music community for many years. She composed her first piano solo at age 11 and just three years ago traveled to Vienna, Austria to participate in the Golden Key Piano Competition. In 2016, she performed a piano solo at Carnegie Hall for the Key Piano Competition. Isabella was also a finalist in the 2016 and 2017 Marvin Hamlisch Film scoring competition in the youth category. Not only is she a composer and pianist, but a singer and songwriter as well. She is a member of the Notre Dame Madrigal Chamber Orchestra, String Ensemble and had a role in Shrek The Musical, last March. “This is something that I definitely want to pursue in the future,” said Isabella. “I’m very grateful that Notre Dame has allowed me this unique opportunity.” Take a moment to watch the Spirit video on ndnj.org, where you can hear Isabella’s composition and see all of the activities that make Notre Dame so special.

In addition to her work with this video, Isabella composed the intro and closing music that played during morning announcements on NDTV.

In his second year at the helm, the Irish improved from 13-13 to 20-5. In late December, the team won the 2018 Albert E. Martin BUC Basketball Classic at Red Bank Regional High School. They also posted a 12-1 mark in the CVC, ﬁnishing second to Trenton High School and advanced to the semiﬁnals of the Mercer County Tournament.

NDJournal

“It is always an honor to receive an award when you are selected by your peers” Roche said. “The CVC has great coaches who are great people. Many of the coaches were worthy of this award.”

RICH ROCHE CVC COACH OF THE YEAR

Roche returned to coaching after an 11 year absence. He jumped back in last year when the Irish needed a last minute replacement. Before becoming an Athletic Director, he spent many years coaching in the college ranks.

oach JOHN MCKENNA has been inducted into the National High School Strength Coaches Association (NHSSCA) Hall of Fame. In June, he attended the NHSSCA Hall of Fame induction ceremony held in Tennessee. Coach McKenna is in his 20th season as the Strength and Conditioning Coach at Notre Dame High School, and has been a football coach for over 36 years. In his full-time role at Notre Dame, he trains all physical education classes and athletic teams in season and out of season. John is also the moderator of Catholic Athletes for Christ.

COACH MCKENNA INDUCTED INTO THE NHSSCA HALL OF FAME

In addition to this induction, Coach McKenna was the ﬁrst strength coach inducted into the New Jersey Coaches Hall of Fame and just recently was honored by the National Football Foundation for his Contribution to Amateur Athletics. He was also inducted to The Sports Faith Hall of Fame in Chicago. Coach McKenna has trained professional, college and high school athletes. He has also developed the popular “Building Your Foundation Youth Program” for the development of younger athletes. He was also recently named to The Board of Directors, Region 8 Northeast (ME, VT, NH, RI, CT, NY, PA, VA, WV, MD, DE.)

urrent Notre Dame faculty member and former Boys Varsity Soccer Coach, MIKE PERONE, was inducted into the Soccer Coaches Association of New Jersey (SCANJ) Hall of Fame. SCANJ represents over 325 public, private and parochial high schools in New Jersey.

COACH PERONE KICKS HIS WAY INTO THE SCANJ HALL OF FAME

In addition to team accomplishments, Coach Perone earned countless awards including the 1988 Scholastic Coach Magazine National Coach of the Year, the 2004 SCANJ Coach of the Year and the 2014 NSCA Coach of the Year Private and Parochial Award. He was inducted into the Mercer County Soccer Hall of Fame in 2007 and the Notre Dame Athletic Hall of Fame in 2008. Arguably one of his greatest accomplishments, Mr. Perone recorded his 500th win in 2016. Coach Perone retired from coaching in 2017, as the oldest of the Mercer County Soccer Coaches. He remains a faculty member at Notre Dame and is the current Chairperson of the Physical Education Department.

IRISH FOOTBALL WINS DIVISION

his Irish Football Team had a triumphant season. Their biggest triumph was obtaining the WJFL Capital Division Title by defeating Trenton 21-7. Not only did they win this prestigious title, but they beat a team who never had a divisional loss. Cortaz Williams ‘20 gave the Irish the lead when he scored a two-yard touchdown run with 8:44 remain in the game. Coach Marc Lordi ‘06 explained that every player on the team played a huge role in this win. Lordi explained that it isn’t one player that wins a game, it is a team effort and shared his thoughts on Cortaz Williams’s game-changing touchdown and the team victory. “He is a great player,” Lordi said of the game’s leading rusher. “We are so proud of him but it’s not just him. It’s the counter punches we have with the other guys out there too. They actually open it up a little bit for other players to run on the outside and run different types of plays. So it’s a team effort, even though it doesn’t seem that way on the stat sheet.”

There were a few speciﬁc players on the team that were recognized in New Jersey for their exceptional performance this past season. Irish defensive end, Tristan Tritt ’19, recorded an area-high 12 sacks and a record 51 tackles to be named the Times of Trenton Defensive Player of the Year. Tristan was also chosen to the Times Defensive All-Area Team. In addition to these awards, utility player Williams received the Frank “Mammy” Piscopo Memorial Award as Player of the Year. He was also named the best local player in the West Jersey Football League. It is rare for a junior to receive this honor. Lastly, Williams was also chosen to the Second Offensive All-Non-Public Football Team. The Irish Football Team received several accolades from NJ.com and The Times of Trenton. Named Times of Trenton Team of the Year, the Irish soared to a 7-3 record last season, including a six-game win streak, shaking off a 2-8 record in the previous season.

FALL 2019

An accomplished soccer player during his high school and college careers, Coach Perone began coaching the Notre Dame Varsity Boys Soccer Team in 1977 as the youngest head coach in Mercer County. While leading the Irish, Coach Perone won two Mercer County Tournament Championships, nine CVC Championships and his 1984 team was ranked ﬁrst in the state.
