St. Robert School Annual Report

FALL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT

ST. ROBERT SCHOOL

Life Smart

There’s book smart.

There’s street smart.

And at St. Robert School, there’s Life Smart.

Preparing students for the classroom called life.

For one hundred years, St. Robert School has been fulfilling its mission “to educate and sanctify children for Christian leadership in accordance with the highest standards of knowledge and human ideals.” We are proud that our school has maintained its relevance throughout these many decades. One of the key reasons for our long, successful history - even in the face of today’s rapidly changing culture — is that our program design is intentional. It is based on an ever-present awareness of the realities of the contemporary workplace, careful adoption of evidence-based instructional practices, and, most fundamentally, the measuring of all strategic decisions against the benchmarks of our core values.

I wish you could see what I see and encounter as I walk through our parish school. I see your gift at work making a difference in the lives of our students.

Catholic schools are first and foremost a ministry of the Church. St. Robert of Newminster Parish has sustained Catholic education here for the past 100 years. We are committed to providing not only a solid educational foundation, but also the skills and faith needed for our students to make a positive contribution to society.

We are shaping the future right now, with the manner in which we are educating our children here. St. Robert School is a leader in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee.

Your gift is making this possible. I say to you the only words that can convey my appreciation — Thank You. Fr. Dennis Dirkx Pastor, St. Robert Parish

St. Robert School

“Life Smart” is more than just a brand. It’s our commitment to nurture a kind of smart that goes beyond books and serves something bigger than ourselves. It’s marked by innovative ways to reach for high standards of excellence with new methods of learning that include workshop-style classes, integrated technology, personalized learning, inquiry-based projects, and data-driven teaching and learning. In our school, leadership is not only an outcome, but a way of working. Just as we prepare our students to transform the communities they will influence, we are proud that our professional staff lead the way in implementation and teaching of best practices in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee. These accomplishments are born in a diverse community where all are welcome — because we are, first and foremost, a holy people, formed in the beautiful truths of our faith, ever-seeking to live that faith in the messy realities of everyday life. Excellence, innovation, holiness. Leadership, community, diversity. Although time and technologies march ever-forward, these markers of our identity have withstood unfolding history and formed legions of students who are Life Smart saints and leaders.

This publication highlights some of the particular ways these core values come to life in 2015. Know that the gifts you contributed in the past year made these successes possible, and that every dollar you contribute reaches into the future by touching the children who will lead it.

Our next century may look different from our first — not only because we are responsive to the culture around us, but because the needs and resources of our community are changing. Your continued support is critical to the implementation of innovative visions for a sustainable future. Can we count on your partnership to assure that generations to come will have the option of a Life Smart Catholic education?

Dollars to be raised by H&S to support the school operating budget

St. Robert School Home & School Association The St. Robert Home & School Association is an organization of parents of the students of St. Robert School. One of the key missions of the Home & School Association is to organize fundraising events that provide direct financial support to St. Robert School for the purchase of items that meet identified needs for individual classrooms, the physical environment of the school as a whole, capital purchases that fall outside the school budget, or other identified improvements or enhancements.

Our primary sources of fundraising are the Emerald Auction, the Calendar Raffle and the Rummage Sale. The parents of St. Robert School volunteer at over 50 Home & School Association-sponsored programs and events each year, enabling us to collaborate with the school leadership, the faculty and the parish to build a strong community, enhance our children’s educational experience, and keep our school vibrant and flourishing. We thank you for all your efforts.

For the 2015–16 school year, the Home & School Association has committed $181,000 to support the school operating budget and H&S events and programs.

UNITE

Our 7th and 8th graders placed 1st and 2nd in the prestigious St. Thomas More High School Math Meet.

MIDDLE SCHOOL DRAMA (On the stage, not the hallways.)

Students can participate in a professionally-directed musical each year. Previous productions include State Fair, Peter Pan, and Mulan.

ANDROID OR APPLE? LAPTOP OR TABLET? Learning is personal, and so is technology preference, so students bring their own best-fit devices — just like in the mobile world around them.

Thank You 2014-2015 Donors The 2014-15 Annual Fund Thank you to everyone who invested in the mission of St. Robert School with a gift to the 2014-15 Annual Fund. Tuition alone does not cover the full cost to educate a student. The Annual Fund, along with Home & School Association fundraising, interest income from the School Society Endowment Fund, and a subsidy from St. Robert Parish bridge that gap. Your unrestricted and individual gifts, ranging from $10 to $10,000, totaled $188,269. We are grateful stewards of the funds you entrust to us.

Scholarship Donors Every family pays some tuition to attend St. Robert School. The amount of financial need is determined via a third party confidential process. This includes our Catholic Urban Scholars, a program begun last year in partnership with Milwaukee parishes in our district that currently do not sponsor a parish school. Through the generosity of these donors, we were able to offer the gift of a St. Robert education to families in need.
