2. New Opportunities to Support John Carroll High School As we conclude this school year, we encourage you to contribute to the 2009-2010 Annual Giving
Campaign before it closes on May 31st. All donors will be recognized in print and online and will receive thanks from the school. We have many exciting projects planned for the upcoming school year but need funds to make these dreams become a reality. Please visit www.JohnCarrollHigh.com to learn the numerous philanthropy options available including online payments, pledges, multiple payment options, personalized scholarship opportunities, etc.
3. New Alumni Database and Directory We are proud to partner with a reputable alumni research company, Harris Connect, which will be assisting
us in a thorough database update. Our goal is to update biographical records for all graduates and publish a
professional alumni directory in the fall of 2010. This new alumni directory will include comprehensive biographical listings with contact information, career overviews, and family highlights of our alumni. Harris Connect will be contacting alumni to update your information; please help us by participating in these efforts. Rest assured that your information will not be released to any third parties and you have the option not to include your personal information in the directory. 4. New Alumni Recognition

you and your family to attend a mass in your honor at St. Anastasia Catholic Church for a special service with a blessing, gifts, and breakfast.
