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!

Scranton Prep Welcomes New President
Rev. 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.

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.

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

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.”

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’.”

Life is Better
at the Beach!
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.

Two Alumni from the Class of 1975 Receive the Rinfret Award
Dr. Peter A. 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.

Two of Prep’s Longest Serving Jesuits Pass Away
William J. 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.

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.

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.
