Prep Parents` Club Installation Dinner
Dear Prep Alumni, Parents and Friends: The work of Scranton Prep is never done because the work of Creation is never done. The Holy Spirit is ceaselessly calling us forward, inviting us deeper and challenging us to give ourselves ever more to the work of shaping a world that reflects the heart of God. At Prep, we do that by helping shape the hearts and minds of young people. It’s hard for me to imagine more meaningful or more important work than that! When I was a high school student, if someone had asked me to explain the point of a Jesuit high school education, I think I would probably have answered something like, “Helping students prepare for college and helping them get into the best school that fits their needs and ambitions.” That answer is accurate, as far as it goes. It’s not a bad answer for a high school kid. When I was a young Jesuit, if someone had asked me the same question, I would likely have answered something like, “Helping young people grow up.” Again, not a bad answer, as far as it goes. Prep does indeed help young people grow up, and it does so by challenging them to grow academically, socially, athletically, artistically, spiritually, and in many other ways. We do that primarily by accompanying them with respect and love throughout their years at Prep. And after so many years of experience, we’re good at it! When people today ask me what I think the purpose of Jesuit education is, I tell them that it’s “helping parents raise their kids to become the men and women they were created to be.” I think that’s a fuller, better answer. It recognizes the deep truth that God has entrusted children to their parents and these parents have in turn entrusted their children to Prep during four critically important formative years so that we might work together as a team to help the Spirit form them and invite them to choose to become the men and women God created them to be: men and women of faith, hope and love; men and women for others; men and women whose very lives give greater glory to God. I am grateful that so many people help make Scranton Prep’s work possible. For generations, Prep has been able to live out our mission as a Jesuit and Catholic school because of the remarkable generosity of our parents, alumni and friends. My prayer is that God will return that generosity a hundredfold!

Ryan J. Maher, S.J. began his tenure as Scranton Prep’s new president on July 1, 2015. He was installed as the ninth president of the school during the Mass of the Holy Spirit on September 11th by Mr. Peter Danchak, chairman of the Scranton Prep Board of Trustees. Rev. Robert Hussey, S.J., Provincial of the Maryland Province of the Society of Jesus, presided. Father Maher and Jesuit priests from the University of Scranton concelebrated the Mass in the Saint Robert Bellarmine Theatre, with the Prep student body, faculty, and staff attending. Jesuits gather before the Mass of the Holy Spirit and Father Ryan Maher’s installation as the new President of Prep. Left to right: Rev. Bernard McIlhenny, S.J., Rev. Richard McCouch, S.J., Rev. Daniel Sweeney, S.J., Rev. Timothy Cadigan, S.J., Rev. Robert Hussey, S.J. (Provincial of the Maryland Province), Rev. James Redington, S.J., Rev. Ryan Maher, S.J. , Rev. Herbert Keller, S.J., Rev. Thomas Pesci, S.J., Rev. Stephen Surovick, S.J. Father Maher expressed his belief that “my whole life has prepared me for the presidency of Scranton Prep. My parents made huge financial sacrifices to make a Jesuit education possible for me, both in high school and in college, and I have never forgotten that. Their faith shaped their lives, right down to the way they spent their money. Their sacrifices changed my life. That inspires the work I do every day.” Born and raised in Arizona, Father Maher graduated from Brophy College Prep, the Jesuit high school in Phoenix, and then went on to Georgetown University where he earned a degree in linguistics. He then worked on Capitol Hill for four years as a legislative assistant in the United States Senate. After entering the Jesuit Order in 1986, he went on to earn an M.A. degree in philosophy from Saint Louis University and a M.Div. degree in theology from the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley, CA. In 2001, Father Maher was awarded a doctorate in Private School Administration from the University of San Francisco. He was ordained a Jesuit priest in 1997. During his life as a Jesuit, Father Maher has worked at St. Joseph’s Prep in Philadelphia and Gonzaga College High School in Washington, DC. He served for eleven years as an administrator and professor at Georgetown University where his duties included serving as associate dean in the College of Arts and Sciences and director of Catholic Studies. In 2005, he was sent to the Persian Gulf to help found the Georgetown School of Foreign Service in Qatar. He served there for two years as associate dean and professor of theology courses for the mostly Muslim student body from across the Middle East. Father Maher is committed to service programs as an integral part of Jesuit education. Over the years, he has led such trips for faculty, staff and students to locations all over the world -- everywhere from eastern Africa, Central America and southern In- dia, to Appalachia, Camden, NJ, and the Navajo nation. “Jesuit education is about deepening the heart, sharpening the mind, forming the imagination, widening the sphere of compassion, and rooting the life of adult faith in our students. Service programs that bring young peoFather Ryan Maher, S.J. and Mr. ple face to face with people Peter Danchak, Chair of the Scranton on the margins of society Prep Board of Trustees, sign the play an invaluable role in Declaration of Shared Purpose between the Maryland Province that process. Jesuit education without a connection to the and Scranton Preparatory School at Father Maher’s installation. poor and marginalized is a contradiction in terms,” he says. Father Maher acknowledges that he is “grateful and blessed” to be beginning his presidency at a time in the life of Scranton Prep when the school is thriving. “Father Keller has left me a great legacy to safeguard, a firm foundation on which to build. Our facilities are first-rate, our faculty are deeply dedicated, our enrollment is strong, our student body is smart and big-hearted, and the wind is in our sails.” But Father Maher is not content to manage the status quo. “Saint Ignatius urges us to always seek the magis, the greater good that we can do in the service of God,” he says. Father Maher sees Prep as called to expand our outreach to the poor and marginalized while at the same time strengthening and expanding our already excellent curriculum. Looking ahead at the next five or six years, Father Maher is excited by the possibilities. “I would like to see us deepen our commitment to the arts, even as we expand our higher level offerings in math and science. To my mind, one marker of a successful Jesuit high school is a vibrant arts program – especially in theater, choral music and the visual arts – coupled with high-powered math and science courses. As other schools reduce the former in order to emphasize the latter, we insist on both because of our understanding of what it means to be a truly educated human being.” Father Maher believes that a large part of his job as president lies in articulating and safeguarding the spiritual vision that defines Prep. “Our rootedness in the Jesuit “You know how and Catholic tradition enables us good it feels to be at to resist the temptation to chase Prep.

That’s us.” God’s grace, our work too.” Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 | 3 Graduation 2015 Excerpt from Mia Woloszyn’s valedictorian speech: “There is a quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson that states, ‘Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.’ Today, we begin our journey down whichever path in life we may chose. Some of us know exactly what we are going to do and how we are going to do it, and some of us are unsure about what the future holds. No matter which situation we may be in, it is up to us to create our own path, despite what the world is telling us to do. This path that we are creating, and the trail that we will be leaving is perhaps easier for us to attain, simply due to the experiences and opportunities that Scranton Prep has granted to us. Throughout our years at Scranton Prep, we have completed rigorous workloads, taken difficult AP exams, and studied hard for some of the most challenging courses offered, all while receiving the best education possible. An education not only on an academic level, but on an intellectual and spiritual level as well. We have learned what encompasses the well-rounded individual and what it means to truly be men and women for others.” Excerpt from Peter Kulick’s salutatorian speech: “We are all gathered here together for our last class assembly. When we leave Prep today, we are no longer students of Scranton Preparatory School, but we are now and will always remain the graduates of the class of 2015. Prep has given us a solid foundation for the future. What we learned here will remain with us forever. We are called to share what we’ve learned at Prep which is to be “men and women for others”. This can be challenging at times as we will all have difficult life decisions ahead of us. We have to remember our roots - who we are and where we came from. We will all have positive impacts on people’s lives. Today we will set out in the world and start a new part of our life. We have fulfilled our call to men and women for others but it doesn’t stop now. As St. Ignatius said, “go forth and set the world on fire”. This is the time that we go ahead and do just that.” 4 | Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 Scranton Prep held its 69 th commencement exercises on June 6 – June 7. On Saturday evening, eight priests concelebrated the baccalaureate Mass in the St. Francis Xavier Center. Rev. Herbert B. Keller, S.J., Prep president, was the principal celebrant and homilist. On Sunday morning, Father Keller, assisted by Mr. Matthew Bernard, Prep principal, presented diplomas, awards, and academic honors to 198 graduates. Excerpt from Father Keller’s Baccalaureate Mass homily: “When I was in grade school, growing up in Philadelphia, I used to walk in the Fall with my older brother and my Dad to a park about three blocks from our home. And just about every weekend we did something that so many of you, I am sure, did with your own mothers or fathers: we threw a ball around. And for us, in the crisp Fall air, it was a football. And my Dad was the quarterback and my brother and I took turns on offense and defense. And if I was on offense, I’d go into a huddle with my Dad as my brother strained to overhear our play from a few yards away. All of these plays were designed on the palm of my Dad’s hand and the most involved would be something like: ‘Go out five yards, turn right, then a couple of steps and turn left.’ But most of the time, my Dad would simply say this: ‘Just go out long. I’ll find you.’ And it seems as if he always did. So, I was thinking that this is exactly what God says to you on this feast of the Eucharist tonight: Wherever you go in your life, however whole or broken you are, however together or incomplete, in the joy and in the messiness, in the light and in the darkness, He gave His life for you and He is not about to leave you. And so He says to you tonight: ‘Just go out long, I’ll find you’.” Student Awards Academic Excellence First Place Award Mia Rose Woloszyn Second Place Award Peter Mark Kulick Third Place Award Madalyne Anne Sunday Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 | 5 John A.

Auction 2015 March 28, 2015 Everyone knows that “Life is Better at the Beach” and after this brutally cold winter everyone attending Prep’s Auction 2015 welcomed thoughts of summer vacations, cookouts, and enjoying the great outdoors. Co-chairs Mrs. Kathy Terrery and Mrs. Kim Wylan embraced the beach theme both with decorations and an expansive outdoor living section. An amazing array of silent auction gifts, coupled with a live auction masterfully conducted by auctioneer John Cowley and assisted by Father Herbert Keller, S.J. provided a much-appreciated escape from the winter doldrums for the nearly five hundred guests. As always, the success of the Auction can be attributed to the hard work and commitment of the parents, students, and faculty volunteers who dedicate their time and resources to ensure a better auction experience for everyone.

Cognetti and Robert J. Knowles, Jr., both members of Scranton Prep’s Class of 1975, have been honored by the Scranton Prep Alumni Board of Governors as the 2015 recipients of the prestigious Rev. T. Donald Rinfret, S.J. Distinguished Alumnus Award. The Rinfret Award is presented annually to a Prep graduate/graduates who have brought distinction to the school through service of others, particularly in ways that reflect Prep’s motto: Ad Altiora Natus – born to higher things. Dr. Cognetti and Mr. Knowles have long been strong and loyal supporters of Prep. The generosity of each of these men underscores their commitment to a system of values that were instilled in them as young students in the 1970’s. Though they followed different career paths, they never lost sight of the Jesuit mission; rather they embraced it and made it the nucleus of their lives. Their contribution to the life of our area and their generosity to the causes and institutions in which they believe, stand as strong testaments to their goodness and character. Dr. Peter A. Cognetti is a primary care physician specializing in family medicine, and is affiliated with Regional Hospital of Scranton. He graduated summa cum laude from the University of Scranton in 1979 and received his medical degree from Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia in 1983. There, he was the outstanding family practice graduate and given that recognition by the Philadelphia Family Practice Society. While completing his residency at Sacred Heart Hospital in Allentown, PA, he received the Meade Johnson Nation Award and Scholarship for top national Family Practice resident. In 1986, Dr. Cognetti was board certified by the American Board of Family Medicine. Following two years of practice in Orangeburg, SC, he returned to his native area in 1988 to begin his private practice. In 1997, he joined with Dr. Patrick Conaboy to establish Cognetti and Conaboy Family Practice. Dr. Cognetti’s dedicated commitment to his community and his profession has merited him well-deserved recognition. In 2013, Dr. Cognetti was named “Man of the Year” by the Scranton Chapter of UNICO for epitomizing the UNICO motto “service above self”. He was also named a Boys & Girls Club of Northeastern Pennsylvania Champion of Youth. Dr. Cognetti has chaired Hoops for Hospice 3-on-3 basketball tournament and co-chaired the Haiti Ambulance Fund (he’s gone on several mission trips to Haiti). He has served on the United Way’s board and as president of both the Pennsylvania Academy of Family Practice and the Mercy Hospital medical staff. He has also served twice as president of the medical staff at St. Joseph’s Center in Scranton and was a member of Scranton Prep’s Alumni Board of Governors. He was named to the Pennsylvania Health Policy Board by the late Gov. Robert P. Casey. Presently, Dr. Cognetti is a member of the Board of Directors of the Columbus Day Society and UNICO. He is a staff physician at the University of Scranton’s Leahy Clinic, and sits on the Advisory Board of St. Luke’s Foundation for Haiti. Dr. Cognetti resides in Waverly with his wife, Marianne. They are the parents of five children, all Prep graduates: Sarah ’04, Caroline ’05, Peter ’08, Anne ’10, and Will ’13. Robert J. Knowles, Jr. is the owner of Knowles Insurance Agency, a property-casualty insurance agency operating in Scranton since 1963. Mr. Knowles has extensive experience in the insurance industry with a lifetime career span of over 30 years, working both locally and nationally. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts. He began his career in 1979 with the Hartford Insurance Company in Pittsburgh before moving to the company’s Philadelphia Regional Office as a Commercial Property and Casualty Underwriter. He joined Knowles Associates, a family business, in 1983 as Commercial Account Manager and became a principal in 1985. In the Jesuit tradition of “men and women for others”, Mr. Knowles realizes the significance of giving back to the local community. His strong belief in the vitality of Northeastern Pennsylvania and in the importance of education and the arts are the cornerstones of his community service. He has served on Boards at both of his alma maters. During his tenure on Scranton Prep’s Board of Trustees, he served as chairman of the Finance Committee and was the driving force in the memorial classroom naming campaign for Mark Clarke. In addition, every five years he spearheads the 1975 class reunion. He is currently a member of the Performing Arts Authority, a Director at Burkavage Design Associates, and Vice Chairman of the Northeastern Pennsylvania Health Care Foundation. Previous community commitments include serving as the Vice Chairman of Mercy Health Partners, Director at Franklin Security Bank, President of the Country Club of Scranton, President of Metro Action in Scranton and President of the Waverly Community House. Additionally, Mr. Knowles has held board positions at the Country Club of Scranton, Scranton Preparatory School, Junior Achievement, the Scranton Chamber of Commerce and the Scranton YMCA. Mr. Knowles also served on the Alumni Board of Directors at the College of the Holy Cross and on the Board of Trustees at Keystone College. Mr. Knowles and his wife, Michele, live in Waverly. Their three children graduated from Prep: Susan in 2008, Jack in 2012, and Matthew, a member of the Class of 2013. You can now follow Scranton Prep on Twitter.

McGrath, SJ, died on July 9, 2015 at Manresa Hall in Philadelphia, PA, two days shy of his 87th birthday. He had been a Jesuit priest for 56 years. Father McGrath’s unique and creative ways of mastering a language, especially Latin, became legendary with students who loved his stories, anecdotes and memory aids. Though short in stature, Father McGrath always gained the respect and esteem of both students and faculty. A recipient of Prep’s Ignatian Award, he is fondly remembered by so many alumni, friends and fellow Jesuits. A native of Philadelphia, Father McGrath graduated from St. Joseph’s Preparatory School and entered the Jesuits at the Novitiate of St. Isaac Jogues in Wernersville, PA in 1946. There he made his first ascetical and literary studies, receiving an A.B. degree in 1952. He completed his philosophy program at the newly opened Bellarmine College, Plattsburg, NY in 1953. He was ordained to the priesthood on June 21, 1959. Father McGrath taught for three years at Georgetown Preparatory School and was among the group of Jesuits who founded the Bishop’s Latin School in Pittsburgh where he served for twelve years. He was then assigned to Scranton Preparatory School and found his home for the next thirty-five years teaching the classics to several generations, establishing him as the longest serving Jesuit faculty member in the school’s history. 34 | Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 Father William F. Lamm, S.J. passed away at the Jesuit residence in Wernersville, PA on May 27, 2015. A native of Long Island, New York, Father Lamm graduated from Xavier High School in 1944 before entering the Jesuits at the Novitiate of St. Isaac Jogues in Wernersville. He received a B.A. in history from West Baden College (Loyola University) and completed his theological studies at Woodstock College in Woodstock, Maryland. He was ordained to the priesthood on June 23, 1957. After briefly considering mission work, Father Lamm felt his calling would best be served teaching and working with high school students here in the States. After a brief assignment teaching English and history at Gonzaga High School prior to his ordination, Father Lamm moved to Scranton Preparatory School in Pennsylvania in 1959 where he found his home for the next 28 years. There wasn’t a facet of Scranton Prep that Father Lamm didn’t have his hands in during his long tenure; including teaching English and Latin, ministering to students and faculty, acting as treasurer, even serving as custodian of grounds and buildings. In 1987, Father Lamm spent several years ministering at Manresa-on-Severn retreat house and then served more than 10 years as the assistant province treasurer and secretary until 2005. He was a Jesuit priest for 57 years. 40-Year Reunion Class of 1975 Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 | 35 Cody Barrasse Memorial 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament & “Continue Cody’s Commitment” Party Over 500 people gathered at Prep on August 8, 2105 for the 3rd Annual Cody Barrasse Memorial 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament, which benefits the scholarship fund at Prep established in Cody’s honor. The first full tuition Cody Barrasse Scholarship recipient, Kaliyah Lynady, was announced at the tournament. Kaliyah is a member of the current freshman class. Tournament participants competed in 8 divisions: men’s and women’s junior high, high school, competitive adult, and non-competitive adult. This year marked the first annual “Continue Cody’s Commitment” party, which was held on the evening of August 8th 36 | Prep News Annual Report 2014-2015 at The Leonard in Scranton. The purpose of the event was to remember Cody, to enjoy each other’s company, to promote the importance of organ donation, and to raise funds for expenses incurred by families of local transplant recipients. Approximately 400 people joined in the festivities that evening. The tournament and party were both huge successes thanks to the efforts of the 100+ volunteers, 76 participating tournament teams, 325 sponsors/donors, and countless friends and family members. Between the two events, over $60,000 was raised for Cody’s memorial scholarship fund.
