Dear Christ the King Family,
As we complete another year in the dynamic ministry of
Christ the King Catholic School, we reflect on the many
transformations our school has had over its 49-year history.
From our small beginnings in 1964 to
the thriving parish school we are today,
our parish community has supported
every step we have taken along this
journey. And, we are blessed to say,
that throughout these years our primary
mission has never changed, to provide a
quality academic education within the
context of our Catholic faith.
Catholic education is not only the work
of the dedicated staff of Christ the King,
nor solely the work of those parents who
send their children to our school.
Rather, it is the work of the entire
community. The success of Christ the
King Catholic School is due in no small
way to your generosity, love and support.
Your financial contributions, your hours
of donated service and your commitment
to our future have helped our school succeed. Your
dedication to providing a faith-filled education for all who
seek one, is truly a gift to our Christ the King family.
It is my hope that all the children of Christ the King
Catholic School can come to know the love of God as
revealed in the person of Jesus Christ, find respect from those
of us who serve here at our parish school and come to realize
the great plan God has for each one of them. Of course, the
ultimate fact is that God wants each of us to be free. This
freedom is found only in becoming what God wants us to
be. It is my hope that Christ the King School can help every
child to realize their freedom by becoming exactly who God
has designed them to be for all eternity. Let us pray together
that this reality will be achieved at Christ the King School.
Please be assured of my prayers for you.
I am indeed grateful.
Sincerely in Christ Jesus,
Mission
Christ the King Catholic
School strengthens the
God-given capabilities
of each child in a loving
Catholic community.
Students experience
an environment that
Rev. Msgr. Richard Paperini
is gospel-centered and
service oriented.
from the Principal
a message
This is my fourth year at Christ the King and my fourteenth year in education. I came to Christ the King
because, as a lifelong Catholic, I wanted to combine my faith and my vocation as a teacher. What I see everyday
is a parish and school community that cares deeply about their faith and each other.
I am delighted and thankful to share with you that our parish school is thriving. We have over 250 students, of
which approximately 83% of our students are Catholic and that number is growing each year. Nearly 40% of our
students are minorities, representing 11 different languages spoken at home.
As a mission of our parish, our students, parents, and staff are committed to serving our community in a variety
of ways. Our parents serve on numerous parish ministries and volunteer across our community. The Parent
Community Organization (PCO) supports multiple community building events such as the Ice Cream Social &
BBQ, the Fall Festival, Father-Daughter Dance, Family Bowling Night, and Family Movie Night to name a few.
In addition to supporting specific classroom community service projects, our school staff is currently sponsoring
a teacher in the Congo through the Light of Africa program. Our students are involved in numerous service
projects every year including - collecting over 2,000 pounds of food for the Christ the King chapter of the
St. Vincent de Paul Society, raising money for the American Cancer Society and the Madonna Center Baby
Shower Drive. In addition, our students help support Christ the King’s Helping Hands & Open Arms ministry
and St. Andre Bessette Downtown Chapel. Our middle school students serve numerous parish ministries
including - Altar serving, helping with the Knights of Columbus dinner, and collecting items for the Christmas
Food Boxes to name just a few. Last year our eighty middle school students completed 5,292 hours of
community service. This is an average of 66 hours/student - more than double the school requirement.
How amazing is this!
We continue to offer a rich academic program that includes the core subjects plus Library, Art, PE, Spanish,
Music, and integrated technology. However, the foundation of our school continues to be our Catholic identity
and our religion curriculum. Every week begins with a student led school-wide prayer service and all students
attend Mass on Wednesday mornings. All school days begin with daily prayer and every grade has religion
classes and multiple opportunities for prayer. In addition, this year we are thrilled to have Dr. Elaine Park
working closely with every class in their religious instruction.
We are blessed to have a diverse community that works together to provide the children of our
school a positive and challenging education. The creativity and dedication of teachers, staff and
parent volunteers inspires our children to make the most of their God-given capabilities.
We give thanks and look to the years ahead with faith and gratitude for the overwhelming
support our school receives from each of you. May God continue to bless each of you and our
school community.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the difference between the 3 Funds
supporting CTK?
A. Annual Fund: The Annual Fund appeal
supports the school’s operational budget. The
cost of educating each child exceeds tuition
revenue and the parish subsidy. The Annual
Fund helps to fill this “gap” and maintain lower
annual tuition increases.
Endowment for Education Fund: The
Endowment for Education Fund provides for
the long-term viability of the school. The funds
are invested by the Archdiocese to provide a
permanent provision of support for Christ the
King Catholic School. During the 2012-2013
school year, the Endowment for Education Fund
provided $10,000 for tuition assistance to our
students.
Tuition Assistance (Support-A-Student): Tuition
Assistance aids qualifying Catholic families to
pay tuition, both annually and in cases of
emergency. This year nearly one third of our
students received tuition assistance, ranging from
6 to 80% of annual tuition cost. The average
award is approximately $1,500.
Q. What is the timeline for the Campaigns?
A. Donations are accepted year round. The
Joseph E. Weston Foundation matches up to
$10,000 for non-parent Tuition Assistance and
up to $15,000 for CEED Endowment Fund.
This is a great opportunity to double your gift!
The campaign concludes June 30, 2014.
Q. Can a person charge a gift, or have
donations automatically deducted from a
checking or savings account?
A. Yes to both! Donors can charge their
Annual Fund gift to their credit card. Gifts
can be charged online at the school website
(www.ctkweb.org). Donors can request gifts
be deducted electronically from a checking or
savings account following completion of a
VANCO authorization form available from
the school Development office by calling (503)
785-2418 or checking online at www.ctkweb.org
under the Support CTK link on the homepage.
Q. Can my gift be matched by my employer
and/or United Way?
A. Depending on the donor’s employer, most
charitable gifts to an elementary school can
be matched. A matching gifts brochure listing
participating employers is available from the
school, or a donor can contact his/her company’s
Human Relations office. United Way
contributions also can be directed to Christ
the King Catholic School.
Q. How do the students and school give back
to our parish and local community?
A. Within our parish, students support the Altar
Society, Madonna Center Baby Shower and
Holiday Cookie Faire, Helping Hands,
St. Vincent de Paul Society Thanksgiving Food
Drive, Downtown Chapel Penny Power
Campaign, Oregon Humane Society, St. Francis
Dining Hall, plus give over 300 hours annually in
service as altar servers for liturgies. Last year, our
middle school students contributed over 5,292
hours of service to our various parish ministries
and local community.
