Message from the President
Our mission is to provide students
with an education rooted in the life
of Christ and to foster the pursuit of
excellence to the whole person.
Dear Parents, Alumni and Friends of Bishop O’Connell High School,
Good evening and thank you all for coming to the 12th Annual Gala and Auction. This evening is a time of
celebration for the accomplishments of our students and faculty, and also an opportunity for the community to
support the school’s exciting initiatives. Mardi Gras represents a time of parties and celebration. How fitting
that tonight we celebrate the past and the future of Bishop O’Connell with a wonderful party!
Through the support of this flagship fundraising event, Bishop O’Connell is able to provide an outstanding
education to our students, while enhancing our technology programs, ensuring competitive salaries for our
exceptional faculty, and investing in curricular materials to sustain our excellent academic programs. Please
remember that everything we do for our school, whether fresh paint on classroom walls or new desks for
teachers and students, plays a role in fulfilling our desire to provide the best learning environment possible.
Please bid high and often and join in the excitement.
We give special thanks to all our Gala participants, supporters, and volunteers. Your tireless support and
generous efforts have made this evening possible. On behalf of the Bishop O’Connell community, I express our
deepest gratitude to the coordinators of tonight’s event, Julie Gazala and Staci Meruvia. We thank them for the
countless hours they spent dedicated to ensuring the success of this Gala. Their commitment and devotion to our
school serves as an example to us all.
Great things happen every day on Little Falls Road. Guided by our mission to provide an education rooted in
the life of Christ, our school is the best possible place for young men and women to grow and develop into
caring, responsible, global citizens.
Thank you for celebrating with us tonight!
Sincerely,
Kathleen Ryan Prebble

Message from the Principal
February 9, 2013
Dear Friends of Bishop O’Connell High School,
I am happy you could be here with us at the Gala this year. Each year, we are humbled by the generous spirit
that permeates this evening. The vision of Bishop O’Connell’s next fifty years as a superior college-preparatory
Catholic school begins to crystallize in the wonderful support you provide this evening and throughout the year.
As Principal, I spend a great deal of time observing what is going on in our classrooms and we are very proud
of the exceptionally talented faculty we have, their commitment to ongoing professional development, and the
strides we have been able to make in recent years to ensure that together our teachers and students are able to
reach beyond the walls of the traditional classroom to enrich the learning experience. We intend to continue to
leverage technology and the best instructional practices to actively engage students and your enduring support
helps make that possible.
Thank you! Enjoy the evening.
Sincerely,
Joseph E. Vorbach III
Principal

Message from the Gala Chairs
Dear friends of Bishop O’Connell High School,
Welcome to Mardi Gras- A Knight of Celebration. We are delighted to have you all here to celebrate and support
our 12th Annual Gala and Auction.
The definition of the word celebrate is “to observe (a day or event) with ceremonies of respect, festivity, or rejoicing.”
Our school community not only celebrates here tonight, but we see this celebration every day in the life of our school:
 As a school, we teach and celebrate respect.
 As a school, we host a multitude of festivities throughout the year such as Homecoming, Superdance and
Prom, to name a few.
 As a school, we rejoice! We rejoice in our faith and we rejoice in each other.
As Gala chairs, we’ve witness this kind of celebration every time we come to school. Seeing this community of
respectful, joyful and caring students is exactly why we returned to chair this wonderful event for a second year in a
row! We also celebrate the wonderful volunteers, faculty and staff who have worked side-by-side with us over the
last two years., and we are blessed to have made so many friends in this process. Most of all, we are once again
overwhelmed by the generosity of time, talent and gifts that the O’Connell community shares to make the Gala a
success.
Thank you for contributing to the amazing experience that came with chairing our school’s flagship fundraising
event. We hope you enjoy the evening. Celebrate and let the good times roll!
Sincerely,
Julie Gazala
Staci Meruvia

Raise Your Paddle
Be a Hero!
“Technology is nothing. What’s important is that you have faith in people, that they’re
basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they’ll do wonderful things with
them.”
-Steve Jobs
The students at Bishop O’Connell High School have benefitted from major technology
upgrades around our school over the past two years. School-wide wireless Internet
access has created new opportunities for engaging learning experiences in the
classrooms.
Through the generosity of our donors, the school owns two mobile technology labs,
which have become a popular supplement to our Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)
program.
Please consider being a Hero tonight and help us raise money to purchase additional
mobile labs, including new iPads and tablets which will benefit students and teachers
across all areas of study.

Silent Auction Closings
We will be using a Rolling Closing System this year that will close out one section at
time, one item at a time. If there is more than one item in a section you would like to
bid on, you can easily do so. No need to recruit unreliable spouses to help you “hover”
over bid sheets!
How a Rolling Closing Works
As in the past, the Silent Auction will be divided into different sections. At 7:15 p.m,
the first section will begin closing. Watch and listen for the Red Apple Auctioneer, as she
will be “The Closer.” Each item in a section will officially close when the Red Apple
Auctioneer walks by and physically touches the bid sheet. (The bid sheet will then be
picked up.) This means that even if you haven’t had a chance to see every item in the
section that is closing, you can still take a look and place bids – as long as you are in
front of the Auctioneer as she closes out the section. Items will close in numerical order
with item #101 closing first, followed by item #102 , then #103, and so on.
Silent Auction Closing Begins at 7:15 p.m.
Sections Close in the following order:
1st: Knights’ Regalia

2nd: Knights of the Round Table
