Cardinal Gibbons Mission Statement

Cardinal Gibbons High School is dedicated to providing students with a strong formation of Catholic values, academic excellence, lifelong learning and a commitment to service.

Dear Parents, Alumni, and the Entire Cardinal Gibbons Family,

From the Principal Oscar Cedeno

It is with immense pride and gratitude that I share our Annual Report with you. The pages you are about to read are not just a compilation of figures and accomplishments, but a testament to the unwavering support and dedication that each of you has shown towards our beloved school.

For many generations, Cardinal Gibbons High School has stood as a beacon of excellence in education and character formation. This legacy is not just built on the efforts of our dedicated staff and faculty, but is equally a result of your generous contributions and belief in the values we uphold.

This Annual Report serves a dual purpose. Firstly, it allows us to express our heartfelt gratitude for the support we received during the last school year. Your contributions, whether financial, in kind, or through volunteer efforts, have been instrumental in our success. Secondly, it provides us with an opportunity to share the incredible achievements and milestones of our students and faculty, all of which were made possible because of your support.

As you flip through these pages, you will find the names of individuals, families, and organizations whose contributions have played a pivotal role in our school’s continued success. Each name represents a personal story of generosity and commitment to our school’s mission.

Here are a few notable highlights from the past school year that your support has made possible:

•Athletics: Cardinal Gibbons Athletics had an exceptional year, with the Baseball Team winning its first State Title in 37 years, a wrestler securing a second consecutive individual State Championship, a Diving State Champion, and a Track & Field State Champion in shot put. Additionally, Cardinal Gibbons was proud to send 32 committed student-athletes to compete at the collegiate level.

•Auction Proceeds: The 33rd Annual Auction, “Meet Me in Tahiti,” raised over $210,000, with $150,000 used for cafeteria and faculty lounge improvements.

•CGTV: Cardinal Gibbons’ CGTV students showcased their talents at the Student Television Network (STN) Spring Nationals in Long Beach, submitting six video projects in a nationwide competition including winning first place in the Crazy 8s Morning Show category. Their “Snap Back with Snapple” commercial, which aired on CGTV and during Night of the Arts, earned an Honorable Mention in the commercial category, highlighting the students’ impressive creativity and production skills. One of our seniors was also recognized by the Florida Scholastic Press Association as top three in the state for Broadcast Journalist of the Year.

•Silver Knight Awards: Cardinal Gibbons High School proudly competed in all 15 categories at the 66th Annual Miami Herald Silver Knight Awards, showcasing impactful student projects that benefited children and the community. Our nominees stood out among 788 seniors judged across various disciplines, including art, science, and journalism.

•Speech and Debate Team: Cardinal Gibbons Speech and Debate Team celebrated an incredible year, with students earning top national rankings and major tournament placements. Highlights include a State Champion in Informative Speaking, top national rankings in Humorous and Impromptu Speaking, and notable performances at the Tournament of Champions and Nationals. A record six students qualified for Nationals in Des Moines, Iowa, showcasing the team’s outstanding achievements.

In closing, I offer my deepest appreciation for your unwavering belief in and commitment to Cardinal Gibbons High School. Your support propels our mission forward and empowers us to shape the next generation of compassionate leaders and critical thinkers. We are inspired by the road ahead and look forward to what we can accomplish together for our students and our school.

With warm regards and deepest appreciation,

WHAT IS THE ANNUAL FUND?

The Cardinal Gibbons Annual Fund is a yearlong appeal that forms the cornerstone of our fundraising activities and allows every member of the Cardinal Gibbons community, including alumni far and wide, to support our mission. Gifts made to the Cardinal Gibbons Annual Fund help cover the outstanding costs of our day-today operations. Every gift, no matter the size, immediately, and directly impacts our students and enhances their educational experience at Cardinal Gibbons. Our donors help support tuition assistance, academic programs, classroom upgrades technology enhancements and faculty professional development.

What is the Annual Fund used for?

The Gibbons Annual Fund will be used exclusively for the current year’s operating costs, which includes:

• Tuition Assistance

• Renovation of Current Classrooms

• Enhanced Technology

How is the Annual Fund different from the Dinner Auction, Golf Tournament and other fundraisers?

All of these events are essential annual fundraising programs, and we sincerely appreciate all who continue to support them. However, gifts made to our Annual Fund are specifically dedicated to supplement our operating budget and address annual expenses.

How can I help?

Through your support of the Gibbons Annual Fund you can help us fulfill our mission and meet our operating needs. You can help us provide tuition assistance for those families in the greatest need and help enhance our students’ educational experience.

Gifts of $1,000 or more welcome you into the James Cardinal Gibbons Society, which honors our outstanding philanthropic leaders.

Is my gift tax-deductible?

Yes. Cardinal Gibbons is a 501(c)3 not for profit organization, where all applicable donations are tax deductible.
