PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
“Let the message of Christ, rich as it is, find a home in you.” Colossians 3:16
Dear Parent(s), Guardian(s), and Students:
A
s the school year comes to a close, we reflect In Spirit and Truth to
celebrate the many accomplishments as we journeyed through another academic
year. We are proud to be named after a young person who exemplified
incredible courage, commitment, and compassion. Saint Joan of Arc was
martyred at the young age of 19 because of her steadfastness and belief in her
faith and her actions. Our school motto, In Spirit and Truth connects us to the
strength Saint Joan embodies and to her character. This year our students have
embraced the spirit of Saint Joan to foster friendships, build upon knowledge
and skills and as a group of learners, they have strived to build a community
based on forgiveness of one another, caring for each other, bearing one another’s
burden and facing all challenges with courage.
Our EQAO Mathematics and Literacy results continue to demonstrate that our
students are excelling in academic achievement as compared to last year.
Students find a home at Saint Joan where they shine in academics and, equally
important, our students become involved in any of the multitude of clubs,
committees and athletic opportunities. Their sense of belonging is second to
none. You will be witness to the many highlights of this year as you read the
pages that follow.
We salute our Class of 2011—2012 as they graduated on June 27, 2012.
Graduates, as your high school years come to an end, you have equipped
yourselves with the tools and skills necessary to be lifelong learners. Now, you
are ready to go forth In Spirit and Truth and stand on our own, making decisions
about where you want to go in life; what kind of person you want to be. You
have been positive role models who have proven yourselves in the classroom,
the field, the stage, the kitchen, the Chapel, and the community. As you leave
Saint Joan of Arc, it is our hope that you take with you the values and traditions
of such a fine institution. Remember that you do not stand alone; rather, you are
a member of a fine group of people. May God continue to bless and guide you
in the days ahead.
It is this same sense of community that is instrumental to the continued success
of our school. We are blessed at Saint Joan to have in our midst so many
dedicated staff, parents, and Chaplaincy, and truly, the accomplishments of our
students are a reflection of the healthy and vibrant partnerships between all
members of our Catholic school community.
We are indebted to our parent community for your constant support. Our
Catholic School Council (CSC), has been such an integral component to the
success of our students. They have demonstrated incredible leadership whether
coordinating guest speakers, informing parents via monthly newsletters, or
organizing a Catholicity Evening to promote Catholic values and sense of
community to name a few. We are appreciative of Mr. L. Piacentini’s time and
efforts as CSC Chair this past year. We welcome parents to join CSC this
upcoming academic year. Our first meeting will be Wednesday, September 19,
2012 at 7:00 p.m. in the Library. Thank you to the executive and all CSC
members for another spectacular year!
As Principal, I am extremely proud of my students and grateful for the staff that
nurture and motivate our student body on a daily basis. I thank my teaching and
support staff, my secretaries, and custodians for the time and care you have
given our students. It is In Spirit and Truth that we educate the mind, body, and
soul.
We say farewell and wish Ms. L. Francescutti a wonderful beginning to her well
deserved retirement and thank her for the many contributions she has afforded
our students and in particular the Family Studies Department. Congratulations
on a magnificent career!
We congratulate Ms. D. Pincivero in her new role as Department Head of Family
Studies.
It is with mixed emotions that we bid Mr. E. Pivato farewell. He has served our
community over the past three years and provided our staff, students, and parents
with the leadership and vision to advance our school. His watchful eye, wisdom,
and integrity have made Saint Joan of Arc an extraordinary school. We will
miss him and wish him well in his new assignment as Principal of Father
Bressani. Congratulations!!!
In closing, may you savour the lazy days of summer to reenergize and replenish.
Take the time to be with family and friends and be thankful for the many
blessings that surround you. Have a safe, restful summer break and may God
remain by your side.
In Spirit and Truth,
A. Rubino

ear Staff and Students:
The best memory I have of Saint Joan over the last three years is the positive, daily greetings from
students, and a staff who go beyond what is required to achieve all that inspires. As well, I will forever
cherish the incredibly hard working and caring Administrative teams comprised of Mr. B. Crook, Mr. J.
Babic, Mr. S. Hayes, and my hero, Ms. A. Rubino.
The encounters we have had at Saint Joan make me wish to know you all better. But it is not how well we
come to know each other that matters … what matters is the shared bond we have, and the determination
to bring out the best in one another given the short time together that we are given. Continue to raise
each other up so that you are as strong as THUNDER.
To the staff and students at Saint Joan, I wish you God’s grace and a lifetime of happiness, one body in
Christ.
Thank you for all your support, warm wishes, and touching moments together. May we meet again.

e are pleased to announce the results of our students' performance on the March 2012 E.Q.A.O. Ontario
Secondary School Literacy Test. The success rate of our first-time eligible students was 81%, an increase of 2%
from March 2011, and only 1% from the overall Provincial rate of 82%. We are also pleased to announce that our
students in the Academic programming level equaled the Provincial success rate of 93%. Our students who are
enrolled in Applied English also showed an improvement, with an increase of 4% year-over-year. We congratulate
all of our students and staff for their individual and concerted efforts towards improving Literacy.
Students and parents are reminded that the successful completion of the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test is
a mandatory requirement for earning the Ontario Secondary School Diploma. Students who wrote the O.S.S.L.T.
this past March will receive an E.Q.A.O. Individual Student Report along with their Final Report Cards. Students
who were unsuccessful on the O.S.S.L.T. can complete this graduation requirement by attempting the test a second
time, or by enrolling in the Ontario Secondary Literacy Course, which serves to improve students' literacy, earns
students an additional credit, and meets the criteria of the O.S.S.L.T. for graduation.
This coming school year the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test will be written across Ontario on Thursday,
April 11, 2013. Parents and students who are interested in preparatory activities for next year's Ontario Secondary
School Literacy Test can visit www.eqao.com or our school website http://stjo.ycdsb.ca this coming school year.

S
pring is always a wonderful time for the Arts at Saint Joan of Arc.
Many students
have attended our
trips to
The ROM and
The AGO.
Junior Drama students saw a performance from Second City.
On May 2, 2012 we had our annual Arts Night whereby numerous Drama and Dance students shared their
talents. There was also a Visual Art and Photography Display that stretched into the front foyer of SJA. On
this night we recognize the many talents and accomplishments of our Arts students.
This year the Visual Art class of Mr. T. Klobucar created a three-part image of Saint Joan of Arc for the front
of the Chapel. A work of art that is both spiritual and beautiful.
On May 28 and 29, 2012 the Grade 12 Drama class performed Alice in Wonderland under the direction of
Ms. S. Nardi. It was a beautiful production that explored a timeless classic. The Drama students and Visual
Art classes created sets, props, and costumes. It was a spectacle.
The choirs / bands and guitar classes, continue to perform their music in our feeder schools. Ms. R.
Abrahamse and the Music students also performed at Canada’s Wonderland and Music Alive Festival in
May 2012 and received a Gold Award. The choir received a Silver Award.
To culminate the Music students’ year was their Spring production entitled Hollywood Hits production
along with our Photography show entitled Snap on June 6, 2012 in our gyms. The Music Department also
hosted Battle of the Bands in April and Music Week in March, our first annual.
Many thanks to Ms. R. Abrahamse, Ms. C. Luongo, and Mr. P. Agati for their dedication to our students’
musical education. Also to Ms. A. Santini for her continued efforts in developing the Photography in our
school.
Have a restful summer.

n May 22 to May 25, 2012 the students of this Semester’s Marketing
classes again set up their booths in front of the cafeteria for 4 exciting days
of selling products of their choice.
During this time, the students had a chance to experience what it was like
to manage and market a product and get a feeling of the role of a marketer.
After four days of selling, the class was able to raise $986.68 for the Sick
Kids Foundation; a worthy cause that can not be overlooked.
Top sellers of Mr. R. Fiore’s class:
Alec Christodoulou, Massimo Nardone,
Nicholas Malisani, Andrew DiGaetano,
and Aaron Ortins

It is with great pleasure to congratulate the entire class on their success
and their accomplishments during this Semester’s Marketing Fair.

Business Leadership Luncheon at Saint Joan of Arc. It was a great success!!!

D. Schlimm, A. Rubino,
J. Eisbrenner,N. Spencer, T. Esteves
The event was an excellent opportunity for the Grade 12 Business students to
showcase the management skills they acquired in the course throughout the semester.
The students planned, organized, and delivered the Business Luncheon to over 80
students, teachers, and special guests. The Grade 12 class delivered presentations,
provided lunch and entertainment, and invited guest speakers from the business
community to speak on the topic of leadership.
We were fortunate to have four guest speakers who volunteered their time, including: Dirk Schlimm – Management Consultant at
Jenoir Management International, Jane Eisbrenner – President & CEO of Junior Achievement of Central Ontario, Tony Esteves
– Inspirational Speaker, and Nina Spenser – Canadian best-selling author / motivational speaker. The guest speakers motivated
students with their messages of leadership and encouraged SJA’s future leaders to reach for the stars!
The Grade 12 Business Leadership
students executed the event with great
professionalism and should be proud of
their accomplishments! We look
forward to more business luncheons for
the upcoming 2012 - 2013 school year.
Great work BOH4M!!

CHAPLAINCY AND RELIGION DEPARTMENT
A
s we approach the end of another school year, we reflect on the many wonderful contributions our students have
made to the Saint Joan of Arc school community through Chaplaincy and Religion.
Our Lenten Season began with a number of students participating in
our annual Vow of Silence held on Ash Wednesday, February 22,
2012 in support of ShareLife. Students raised money and earned
Community Service Hours as they remained silent for an entire
school day in solidarity with the marginalized in our world. Many of
these students assisted with the distribution of ashes following a
reflective prayer service over the P.A.
On March 1 and 2, 2012, a group of dedicated students fasted for 25
hours in our annual Thinkfast. Students were both informed and
challenged by Luke Stocking, Development and Peace Coordinator,
as they learned about the importance of food solidarity for local
farmers and the dangers of industrialized farming with its emphasis
on profit. Close to $1000.00 was raised and donated to Development
and Peace. Our Fast began with a prayer service and concluded with
a Mass, and breakfast in the Cafeteria. Special thanks to the local
Tim Horton’s and COBS Bread for their donations.
Three students attended the Ordinandi Dinner on March 6,
2012, hosted by Serra House in honour of newly ordained
priests in the Archdiocese of Toronto.
Grade 12 students, Mae Manalo, Andrea LiCalzi, and
Felipe Rubim had an opportunity to meet with Father
Hansoo Park at the dinner.
Our Lenten Liturgy, held in the gym during Holy Week,
prepared our hearts for the Easter Triduum and focussed
on God’s mercy and grace. Special thanks to Ms. C.
Luongo and her vocal students, for their role in the music
ministry.
On May 3, 2012 students from Saint Joan of Arc
participated in the Board-wide Vocations Day hosted by
Serra House. Students had an opportunity to learn about
religious life and the important contributions they make to
society. Students also had the privilege of meeting with
Cardinal Thomas Collins.

CHAPLAINCY AND RELIGION DEPARTMENT
During the week of May 8 to May 11, 2012 we celebrated
Catholic Education Week. Special emphasis was placed on the
Right to Life for the unborn as prayers and power point
presentations focussed on the seriousness of the sacredness of all
life from conception to natural death.
A number of our students
participated in an overnight
trip to Ottawa in support of our
national efforts to bring about
change with regard to attitudes
towards abortion in Canada.
Students participated in a mass
celebrated in Notre Dame
Cathedral, a peaceful march
through the streets of Ottawa
and testimonies by the Silent
No More Campaign, people
who regret their abortions.
Special thanks to the Knights of Columbus for sponsoring and
organizing this event for Saint Joan of Arc Catholic High School.
Our students continued to experience retreats at the Grade 9, 10,
and 12 levels. Grade 11 World Religions students were privileged
to hear from Holocaust survivors, participate in Sacred Symbol presentations in our Chapel, and visit various places of
worship. These are moving and very enriching experiences for our students.
On May 30, 2012, our school community celebrated our Saint Joan of Arc Closing Feast Day mass outdoors. Once
again, our liturgy was enhanced by the music ministry of our vocal students under the leadership of Ms. C. Luongo.
Student reflections by Grade 12 student Syed Daud and Grade 10 student Olivia Mistretta were shared. Special
thanks to Mrs. Ambrosini, for sharing her thoughts of gratitude with us. Our Principal, Ms. A. Rubino addressed the
students and staff on the many achievements they accomplished over the school year and bid a fond farewell to retiring
teacher, Ms. L. Francescutti. The Lord provided wonderful weather for us all. Our students were commended for their
full participation and reverence.
On June 11, 2012, the Saint Joan of Arc community honoured our Grade 12s at their Graduation Mass. Special thanks
to Servants by Song Choir at St. David’s. We thank in a special way, Graduate students Giancarlo Stalteri and Jessica
Galeano for their heartfelt reflections and Mr. P. Hill for his inspiring words to all in attendance.
As we reflect on the past school year, we continue to give thanks for our Catholic Education system that allows us as a
school community to gather in faith and learning. As people of faith, we strive to encourage our young people to be
leaders in the community, by word and deed. May their example be a blessing to others as they give an account of the
joy that is in them.
Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live,
in your love, faith and your purity (1Timothy 4:12)
May the summer months ahead be a time of refreshing for you and your families.

CO-OPERATIVE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
A
s another Semester is coming to an end for Saint Joan of Arc’s Co-op students, they are preparing for
their final evaluation in the form of a performance task. This task is performed at the placement and will
demonstrate acquired student’s skills relative to the career chosen.
Michael Cerquiera achieved an 82% mark in the Electrical OYAP Accelerated
Program at Humber College. Accelerated Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Programs
offer an excellent opportunity to earn part of a Level One Apprenticeship Program
while in the last semester of Grade 12.
Our students have had great opportunities to experience various career paths. These
opportunities include plumber, mechanic, chef, where our students earn valuable
experience in a fast paced environment. These opportunities allow the student to
showcase their employability skills that can be transferred to any occupation.
Central Placement interviews will be taking place in mid to late June for
opportunities at Markham Stouffville Hospital, North York Hospital, York Central Hospital, and Rogers
Television. Saint Joan has 7 students who have forwarded applications for these opportunities and are
awaiting interviews.
We also have a number of students that have expressed interested in the Dual Credit Program in such
programs as Social Psychology, Introduction to Criminal Justice at Humber College, Introduction to
Computer Applications, Blueprint Reading at Seneca College. Students can take one college course and
earn a credit that is recognized by two institutions - the College and the high school.

As the Semester draws to a close, we can reflect
on the learning that has taken place to help
students understand literature and use it as a
means to understand the world around them.

Victor Frankenstein
We now have a wonderful Literacy
Lab, where we have been able to
engage our Junior level students in an
online environment. The Grade 12
classes participated in Book Club meetings and
one of the Grade 9 classes got the opportunity to
meet and work with a published poet.
We are proud to announce a new course: Grade
12 College Preparation Literature Studies (Sci-Fi
Film and Literature) for next year! This will be a
fantastic course with modern literature and films
to analyze and discuss in and beyond the
classroom. Other electives that are scheduled for
next year are Grade 12 Studies in Literature at the
University level, which takes the students through
an analysis of the canon of literature and Grade 12
Writer’s Craft, where students get to explore the
art and purposes of writing in a creative and
personal way.
As we think about the coming year, we encourage
students to continue to read throughout the
summer to continue to hone their literacy skills.
Here are a few favourites from the English
Department that may get the students through the
dog days of summer:

his year, ESL students were given the opportunity to get involved in their community and help the
environment by participating in York Region’s Adopt-a-Stream Crossing Program.
On May 15, 2012, thirty ESL students, along with three teachers and two settlement workers, travelled to an
area near San Remo Court where they learned how to plant trees, work together as a team, and reflect on the
importance of protecting our environment. After a long day of hard work, students planted 64 trees in total!
This was an invaluable experience for students that they are sure to remember forever. Students showed true
Saint Joan of Arc spirit and made a lasting impact on our community for years to come.
Students worked hard, and had fun!

T
he Family Studies Department has enjoyed another exciting and memory filled year.
Every Tuesday and Thursday Ms. V. Sarraino’s Breakfast
Club welcomed more students who stopped by to enjoy a
healthy breakfast and stayed on to socialize and start their
day off on a positive note.
Ms. L. Francescutti’s Food Leadership course provided
breakfast Semester 2. Ten Leadership students and their
special needs buddies created wonderful breakfast treats
that were enjoyed by staff and students alike.
Ms. L. Williams and Mr. V. Sarraino were the driving forces behind our new Human Growth and Development
Course (HHG4M1). Current students spread the word about the course and enrolment has almost doubled for
next year!
Thanks to Ms. A. De Caria, we are please to re-introduce Grade 12 Fashion next year. Her many interesting
projects inspired students to be creative and enjoy their sewing skills.
Ms. A. Salluce gave our current Grade 9s a taste of the practical aspects of Family Studies as they were introduced
to simple sewing projects and food labs.
On a personal note, I will be retiring at the end of this school year.
As founding Department Head, it has been an honour to see the
Department grow from two courses to eight offerings. What began
as a staff of one has blossomed to a staff of six full time members, all
with special talents and skills but bound together by a passion for
our subject area.
I congratulate Ms. D. Pincivero who will be replacing me as
Department Head and thank all the many wonderful students who
chose Family Studies as their course option.
You have all touched my heart and I will cherish many happy memories of my years at Saint Joan.

to college and apprenticeship programs. They provide
students with an opportunity to enroll in a college course
while they are still working towards their high school
diploma.
A
lthough the school year is quickly coming to an end,
our Counsellors are already busy preparing for next year’s
graduates. Several important events occurring throughout
next year will be listed on the Saint Joan of Arc website
(http://stjo.ycdsb.ca) under the heading Guidance.
Parents should mark these important dates on their
calendars.
Once again, Saint Joan will be hosting a Parent
Information Night for those who have children that plan
to attend University, College, or an Apprenticeship. This
event will take place on Thursday, September 20, 2012
at Saint Joan of Arc from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Present
will be our Universities and Colleges from the Greater
Toronto Area and Mr. L. Cotton from the School Board,
who will discuss Apprentice / OYAP opportunities.
These programs are called “dual credit” because high
school students can take one college course and earn a
credit that is recognized by two institutions - the college
recognizes the course and counts it towards a certificate,
diploma, or degree and the student’s high school
recognizes the credit and counts it as an optional
(elective) credit towards his / her diploma. In cases
where the dual credit course is tied to an apprenticeship
program delivered at the college, successful completion
counts towards the student’s apprenticeship certification
(e.g., Level 1). Students are provided with support for
transportation and course fees are paid for by the
Ministry. Students also receive a college student ID card
that allows them to experience and access college
facilities.
We look forward to seeing you in September. Wishing
everyone a wonderful and safe summer.
Listed below are a few examples of the many courses
offered to students at Saint Joan of Arc.

Working After School?
Think Safety First
As a number of graduates and other students
enter the workplace this summer the topic of
safety can often escape consideration. Every
day in Ontario, about 50 youth workers are
injured or killed on the job. Students are reminded to
work smart and protect themselves by knowing the
hazards in their workplace and how to protect themselves.
Students should not be afraid to refuse unsafe work, it
may mean their lives.
When going for a job interview, students should ask safety
questions such as getting safety training before they do the
work or what potential safety concerns there may be that
students should be concerned about?
On their first day at work or on a new assignment students
shouldn’t be afraid to ask questions, especially if they’re
asking how to do a job that they’ve never done before.
Students should gather enough information to be clear
about the duties that need to be done and how to do
them safely.
Remember employers must provide workers with the
instruction, equipment, and supervision to protect their
health and safety.
The Ontario Ministry of Labour offers a number of
resources about safety.
Listed below are a few Safety Tips. For additional
information visit their website:

Get Training - How do I do it? Show me! What do
I look for? Learn how to work safely. Follow the
rules and know what to do in an emergency
Be Supervised - Supervisor, will you be here to see
that I do the job right? If you’re not around, who
should I ask?
Wear The Gear - Hair nets, gloves, aprons, safety
glasses, ear plugs, etc. Use them properly as
required.
Identify Risks - Before you start the job, report
unsafe practices and situations to your supervisor or
employer.
If You Don’t Know, Ask! - There are no “dumb”
questions. Learn about your rights and obligations
under the OHSA.
Do Your Job - Don’t do anything you haven’t been
asked to do, or have been told specifically not to do.
Follow The Safety Rules - And if you don’t know
the safety rules, ask your supervisor.
Report Hazards - Tell your supervisor if you see
anything hazardous, even if it involves another
worker.
If You’re Hurt - No matter how minor, report
injuries to your supervisor and tell your family.
Talk To Your Family - Tell them what you’re doing
at work. Let them know if you think something’s
wrong.
Be Honest - If a task is too much for you, say so!
Don’t attempt something that you can’t handle.
Never Assume - Don’t assume you can do
something without instruction, guidance, or
supervision.

FROM THE LIBRARY
T
his past year has been an exceptionally busy and active one in the Library. We have, once again, added many new
resources to our collection to support student literacy, ongoing learning, and the integration of technology in the
classroom.
Both the Accelerated Reader Program and the White Pine Reading Club have been a true success. Several students
received perfect scores on the Accelerated Reading tests, and in doing so, are now eligible to win a prize for their efforts
and dedication to the program.
The 2012 White Pine event took place on April 20, 2012 at the Catholic Education Centre. Students from many of
our high schools, including Saint Joan of Arc Catholic High School, participated and were able to share their love of
reading. This year’s event included over 100 student participants, a guest author, Don Aker, who was very well
received by both students and teachers, and an ‘Awesome’ art activity. In addition, students enjoyed a complimentary
lunch, had the opportunity to vote for their favorite book, and connect with so many other students from several
schools. As coordinator of this yearly event, I hope to continue this tradition in years to come and give students the
opportunity to share their love of reading.
During the month of May the SJA Library welcomed Cosimo Stalteri, a studentteacher from the University of Toronto (OISE). Cosimo is a former Saint Joan of Arc
student who returned in hopes to give back to the community which made his student
experience a valuable and meaningful one. His diligence, enthusiasm, abundance of
creativity, and expertise did not go unrecognized by both teachers and students.
Cosimo volunteered a great deal of his time to the drama presentation, Alice and
Wonderland, by providing free make-up and hair services for both rehearsals and the
two-night presentation. In addition, he readily volunteered his time, to visit a seniors
home with our Grade 11 Hair and Aesthetics class. Finally, as shown in the photo,
Cosimo painted and donated three of his own paintings to the school Library. We want
to thank Cosimo for his dedication and never-ending commitment to students and our
school community Good Luck with all your future endeavours.
SUMMER READING
It is a known fact that reading improves oral language and writing skills. An excellent way
for students to build on such skills while away from school is to read a variety of materials:
Newspapers, magazines, graphic novels, and non-fiction. By making such materials readily
available in the home teens may be more inclined to read for pleasure. Please visit our
website for a list of Summer Reading.

classes went to Canada’s Wonderland for the day.
They had the opportunity to apply what they have
been learning in-class to real-world applications
at Wonderland. The students had a great time and
enjoyed living out the math they have learned.
Thank you to Ms. M. Rotondi for organizing the
trip for the students.
We would like to congratulate all the Grade 12s that are graduating and wish them the best in
their future endeavours. We hope that all your dreams and wishes become a reality. Keep up

his last term, the Moderns Department has been filled with activity! Our Grade 9 students had the opportunity to visit the
Toronto Zoo in April, where they completed a scavenger hunt in French. The students were working diligently to complete this
task, all while enjoying the beautiful May weather.
In April, our Grade 10 and 12 French classes were able to enjoy an authentic French meal at Marcel’s Bistro, in downtown
Toronto. Here, students had the opportunity to order their food in French and partake in French conversation.
It is with much anticipation and happiness that I announce that I will be starting my maternity leave as of September 2012. In
my absence, Mme. T. Di Paola will be standing in as Acting Department Head of the Moderns Department.
Finally, on behalf of the entire Department, Mme. H. De La Cueva, Mme. T. Di Paola, Mme. M. Piacentini and myself, we
would like to wish you a safe and restful summer! À bien tôt!

PHYSICAL & HEALTH EDUCATION DEPARTMENT
A
s another school year ends we reflect on the past. In doing so, we hope to have given our best and use the past as a
foundation to set goals for the future. This year in the Physical and Health Education Department our students have thrived at
achieving the Department’s primary objective, improving their physical fitness levels.
Through the implementation of a new mode of delivery in Grade 9, a continued emphasis on healthy active living in Grade 10, a
focus on personal fitness in Grade 11 and completion of a triathlon in Grade 12 our students improved their fitness levels and are
leading healthier lives.
With the support of our partners - City of Vaughan, Kettle Creek Golf Course, Carrickmacross Golf Centre, Hardwood Hills,
Toronto Island, Safe International, SAJE Vital Signs, and Bushido Kai - we continue to offer diversity in programming to help
our students attain their optimal level of fitness in various ways.
The Physical and Health Education Department also oversees Athletics and Intramurals at Saint Joan of Arc. This year the
participation levels at SJA were 2nd in all of York Region. This is an outstanding accomplishment and a credit to our studentathletes, teacher-coaches, and the never-ending support of our Administrative team.
The Fall season began with our Senior Soccer team returning to the YRAA final and concluded with Jessica Armstrong
representing the Thunder at the Provincial Cross Country Championships where she finished 6th.
The Winter season was highlighted by our immensely talented Junior Boys Basketball Team and ended with our Senior Girls
Wrestling Team bringing home the YRAA Championship as well as having several wrestlers advance to the OFSAA
Championships.
Continuing in the high standard set in the Fall and Winter, our Spring athletes were not to be out done. The Senior Boys
Baseball Team advanced to the region final for the second year in a row and our Track and Field Team ended the year by
sending numerous athletes to the Provincial Championships.
Overall it was a very successful year and there were too many accomplishments to mention in a brief newsletter. However, I
invite you to visit our Hall of Fame wing at Saint Joan of Arc where you can travel down memory lane. The tour will take you
through all of our student / athlete accomplishments not only for this year but also for the entire history of Thunder athletics.
Finally, we concluded our year with our annual Athletic Banquet. Mr. M. Fantauzzi gave the keynote address and outlined the
value of high school sports for our students as well as delineating the significant differences between community sport and
learning through sport at SJA. Congratulations to our junior achievement award winners, Jessica Armstrong and Jonathan
Femi-Cole. Also best wishes and good luck in the future to our graduating athletes of the year Adeife Adekusibe and Andrew
Prempeh.
Have a fantastic summer and as always, stay active, get fit and may the Lord keep you in good health.

n Saturday, May 26th, Saturday, June 2nd, Sunday, May 27th, and Sunday, June 3rd students in Ms. M. Miccoli's and Mr. J.
Gillingham's University Physics class volunteered to be a part of University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science and
Engineering RobotX Challenge. This interactive program featured 4 days of total robotics immersions.
The Saint Joan of Arc Physics Robotic Team consisted of John Anthony Annabelle, Adam Bozzo, Marco Giancola, and
Lucas Santaguida. This Robotic Team strategized, designed, built, tested and competed! The Team consulted with their
Team Advisor and Mechatronics expert from across the Faculty who shared their wealth of knowledge. On the final day of the
program, participants battled it out in the ultimate competition to see whose robot came out on top!
We are very proud to inform the school community that the Saint Joan of Arc Physics Robotic Team ranked 1st Place overall in
the Capture the Flag Robot Race and placed 2nd overall for the Robot Battle. We are extremely proud of these students for
putting forth such determination, and taking on this challenge and coming out on top. Congratulations!
T
he Science Department would like to congratulate Davin Babulal on his acceptance to the Ontario Science Centre School
(OSCS). The Science School seeks students with a passion for learning and communicating science who have a strong
academic background, demonstrated initiative, independent-study skills, and the ability to work as part of a team.
At the OSCS, there is a strong emphasis on the communication of science. Davin will gain experience in this area through
practicum hours spent participating in engaging activities within the Science Centre and the local community. Furthermore,
Davin will be taking his Grade 12 University Science courses and we wish him the best of luck!

M. Miccoli, Science Teacher
n April 18, 2012, Ms. M. Miccoli's and Mr. J. Gillingham's Grade 11 Physics classes went to the Dixie Curling Club to
investigate the physics behind one of Canada's most popular sports - Curling! The students first received a lesson from the
curling instructors on site regarding some of the basic principles of curling. After they felt comfortable on the ice, students then
got the opportunity to try to curl themselves. Many of the students (and even the teachers) found it difficult at first to even
propel the curling rock down the ice, but after a few attempts, many of the participants got the hang of this fun and engaging
activity. During the day, the Physics students got to see a first-hand account of the force of friction and how sweeping the
broom on the ice would melt the ice and reduce the coefficient of friction, allowing the rock to travel further. The students had
a great time curling, and they were definitely tired after an exhausting day of "HURRYING HARDDDD!!!".

J. Gillingham, Science Teacher
ur Spring Blood Donor Clinic was the most successful to date. The clinic collected 51 units of blood which exceeded our
goal. Those 51 units collected will help save approximately 153 patient lives! To all those that donated don’t forget that you
will be eligible to donate again in July. Go to bloodservices.ca to find a clinic near you.
Finally, all the Science teachers would like to wish our Graduates the best of luck as they begin their journey into their postsecondary pathways. Have a safe, restful, and enjoyable summer!

The Principal’s Platinum Award 2011 — 2012
The Principal’s Platinum Award is a certificate awarded to students at the end of the year.
We salute these students on earning the recognition worthy of being known as “The Principal’s Platinum
Award”. This award is based on the student’s dedication to academic excellence and commitment to attend
classes and to being punctual.
1. Students are expected to attend all classes. Students should not have more than 3 absences in total.
Legitimate illness and school-related activities (field trips, athletics, clubs, etc.) will not negatively
affect a student’s ability to achieve this award.
2. An average of 70% must be maintained over a full load of classes
(4 courses per Semester for Grades 9 – 11 and at least 3 courses per Semester for Grade 12).
3. Students must maintain an excellent behavioural record and character worthy of our Catholic
Community.
Congratulations to the following Principal’s Platinum Award recipients for the 2011 – 2012 school year.
