Greetings from the Head of School

I n today’s study of business and leadership, “change management” is a

thing (“Change or Die” summing it up rather pithily). We, too, live
the change imperative; rather though to serve the unchanging value of
Catholic education. In this issue of Tidings, you will read about the
addition of St. Margaret Regional School and our new, Pre K-12 school
model. With proper planning and God’s grace, this new model will allow
the timeless value of Catholic education to continue and thrive on Cape
Cod for many years to come.
I write to you grateful for your faith in the future -- the future of our
school, and the future achievements and holiness of our students. We
honor your generosity and work hard to ensure that your faith in our
future is well-placed.
The school teaches academic, moral, and spiritual excellence marked by
a clear mission, dedicated staff members, and strong community. With
tuition costs kept low, it is critical that the school grow in its ability to
underwrite outstanding programs, provide scholarship assistance, and
secure the best teachers available. Vibrant Catholic schools call the entire
Catholic community to “step up” through financial gifts, vocal support
in the community, and the gift of presence - students enrolled, parents and
friends at events and in the pews. This is the formula, and I thank you for
your gifts, support, and presence.
The 2018 fiscal year closed with a sharp increase in financial aid need,
financial aid requests, and financial aid giving. As such, the school did
not “make budget” at year’s end (FY18 data included in this report).
In response, the school’s FY19 budget has planned and awarded aid in
accordance with these new realities. Your generosity in financial aid giving
is paramount, too.
This year, 560 students enter St. Margaret Regional School, St. Francis
Xavier Preparatory School, and St. John Paul II High School ready to
become accomplished, well-rounded, spiritually mature young men and
women who know their God and their place in the world. Thank you for
your faith in their futures, and ours.

With gratitude,

Christopher W. Keavy
Head of School

Welcome to the Family

New school alignment strengthens and advances
Cape Catholic education

T he Diocese of Fall River, faced with demographic and financial

challenges, announced in March that St. Margaret Regional School in
Buzzards Bay would align with St John Paul II High School and St. Francis
Xavier Preparatory as one, unified Pre-K – 12 Catholic school for Cape
Cod. Students in Pre-K through grade 4 remain at St. Margaret Regional
School while students in grades 5 through 8 have moved to St. Francis
Xavier Preparatory School. “Change, while difficult, is necessary to ensure
vibrant Catholic education on the Cape for many years to come.” said Chris
Keavy, Head of School.
Recognizing that the realignment had implications for St. Margaret
Regional School students and families, the Diocesan Catholic Schools
Office took steps to mitigate tuition, transportation, and educational
concerns. In a series of meetings last spring, parents had the opportunity
to talk with school administrators, and admission events were held for
incoming St. Margaret students to introduce them to SFXP. As a result,
26 middle school students previously enrolled at St. Margaret now
attend SFXP. Many are taking advantage of the free bus transportation
from St. Margaret to JPII/SFXP, made possible by the Foundation to
Advance Catholic Education (FACE) grant.
Larry McGrath, a parent of a St. Margaret fifth grader, was surprised but
not shocked by the news of the realignment. “The writing was on the
wall,” he stated. ‘My son’s class had grown smaller and so had the other
middle school grades. As a volunteer soccer coach, it was getting hard to
field a team.” McGrath’s son decided to attend SFXP after spending a
day shadowing at the school. McGrath said, “We were impressed by the
breath of the SFXP program, the warm and caring environment, and the
financial assistance and transportation offered by the Diocese.”
Over the summer, significant improvements were made to the facilities at
St. Margaret. The building received new flooring, painting, lighting, and
extensive renovations of the main entryway, computer lab, and library.
More importantly, the program was expanded to include Spanish language
from Pre-K forward, a comprehensive new science program, and the
addition of strings instruction for primary grades. Leading these efforts
at St. Margaret are Head of School Chris Keavy and new principal Beth
Mahoney. Mahoney is an experienced administrator who has worked in
key roles for Catholic schools and Catholic ministries; most recently as
vice principal of Holy Family-Holy Name School in New Bedford.
The realignment comes at the same time that the Wall Street Journal and
David Coleman, CEO of the College Board, in separate opinion pieces,
 Faith in the Future | 3

affirmed the value of “religious”
education. The Wall Street Journal
highlighted the results of a recent
study of self-discipline and Catholic
Schools by the Thomas B. Fordham
Institute, which explored whether
students in Catholic school ex-
hibit more self-discipline than their
peers. The study concluded that
“You can instill self-discipline in
students, a virtue that will help them
in their studies and later in life.”
Current parent Meghan Garrett,
who has two boys at SFXP and one
at the high school, agrees. “Both of
my boys benefit from SFXP’s struc-
ture and emphasis on organization
and have thrived academically. The
teachers want their students to be
successful.” Garrett, whose boys
commute from Kingston, believes
deeply in Catholic education and
the moral and spiritual foundation
it offers. Coleman calls it “grace
and gratitude,” when he writes:
“A religious training invites us to
strive with all our might but also to
recognize the limits of our power.
Let me assure you that what is
lasting is the grace and gratitude
that makes a young person both
more humble and stronger, less
fragile in their success. In replacing
entitlement with gratitude, we are
invited to think deeply about what
we owe to others instead of what is
owed to us.”
Garrett is very supportive of the
Pre-K – 12 model and believes the
new configuration will attract new
families. “Beyond the practicality of
schedules, a Pre-K -12 school allows
students to develop a strong ethical
and moral foundation rooted in the
Catholic faith,” she commented.
This new alignment is part of an
effort, which began in 2015, by
Diocesan Catholic school leaders to
develop a roadmap for the future of
Catholic school education. As Fall
River Bishop Edgar M. da Cunha,
wrote in his 2017 pastoral letter,
“Catholic schools are a treasure
that we dare not take for granted or
neglect.”

New Administrative Team Represents Continuity and Growth

A newly-constituted leadership team allows the unified school to pursue long-term goals and maintain
excellent quality in day-to-day operations:
Mr. Chris Keavy serves as Head of School and focuses on mission and identity, planning, and advancement.
Mr. Keavy is the founding Principal of Pope John Paul II High School, having opened the school in 2007. In 2013,
he was named Head of School - SJPII High School and SFXP. He holds a B.A. from Assumption College, an M.A.
from Boston College, and an M.A. in Educational Administration from
Ursuline College in Ohio.
Ms. Beth Mahoney now serves as Principal of St. Margaret Regional School.
Ms. Mahoney is an experienced administrator, most recently as Assistant
Principal at Holy Family-Holy Name School in New Bedford. She earned a
B.A. from Notre Dame College and an M.A. in Theology from Boston College.
Mrs. Beth Kelley returns for her sixth year as SFXP Principal. She is a
graduate of Regis College and is currently working toward earning her
Masters’ Degree in Catholic School Administration through the University
of Dayton.
Ms. Mona Lisa Valentino, previously JPII Assistant Principal for six years,
became the high school’s second Principal on July 1. She earned a B.S.
from Fairfield University and an M.A. in Management and Leadership from
Lesley University.

Leadership Studies at Three

JPII’s Leadership Studies Program Shapes Leaders of the Future

I t’s an age-old debate; are leaders born or made? JPII’s signature Leadership
Studies program banks on the latter -- and has student success to prove it.
“After three years, we are seeing exactly how Leadership Studies and
Practicum sharpens students’ skills, and their ability to work effectively and
confidently. It’s a home run,” said Mona Lisa Valentino, JPII Principal.
The leadership program supplements classroom content in leadership
theory with independent practicums in the local community. In the
first semester, students focus on various leadership styles and practice
public speaking, goal setting, and problem-solving. Students see multiple
perspectives of leadership, as speakers who hold diverse professional
positions in the community share their leadership journeys and perspec-
tives. Michael Lauf, President/CEO of Cape Cod Healthcare, has addressed
the program’s students since the first class. “I’ve been thoroughly impressed
with the quality of the students. We depend so much on today’s youth for
what we’ll all be doing tomorrow. I’m just excited that there are still so
many kids out there that want to lead, that want to be involved.”
The second half of the leadership program is more independent and
students apply the leadership skills they have learned at a practicum
within the local community. Cape Cod Healthcare, Joint Base Cape Cod
Coast Guard, Cooperative Bank of Cape Cod, and Baxter Nye Engineering,
for example, have hosted practicums. “Students work with both leaders
and managers, and experience first hand the day-to-day environments
related to the majors they are considering for college,” said Karen Godfrey,
Director of Leadership Studies.
Some students discover their professional interests through the program.
“For my practicum, I worked with Debora Bowman, a pediatric speech-
language pathologist who works for Cape Cod Hospital,” said Meghan
Powell, JPII ‘17. “The practicum helped me realize the career direction I
wanted. I decided to attend Duquesne University because of my practicum
experience. I am in an accelerated masters program for speech-language
pathology.” Nate Whiteley, JPII ’18 echoes this sentiment: “During my
practicum, I spent a lot of time observing and learning about the things
that go on every day in an engineering firm. It gave me the confidence to
know that engineering is really what I would like to study in college.”
“The program rests on the ideas that leadership skills are effective human
skills, that they can be learned when studied, and that leadership skills are
the most transferable skills we can provide our students. I am proud of the
program’s success and look forward to welcoming back program graduates as
future speakers and practicum mentors,” added Chris Keavy, Head of School.
Taylor Giangregorio, ’16 was a member of the program’s first class and
now studies journalism at Quinnipiac University.

The Curriculum of Life

Excerpts from Shannon Cummings ’18 reflection on her twelve years of Catholic
schooling delivered at the Catholic Schools Week Mass for all students of Cape Cod’s
Catholic schools in January 2018.

W hat separates Catholic education from that of public schools is that by learning the Diocesan curriculum, in
a way, we learn the curriculum of life. We are taught not only to memorize our times tables or how to spell
Mississippi, find the derivative and conjugate verbs, but how to handle difficult situations with grace, and to live in
the light of Christ.
Similarly, Catholic schools show the importance of service. This past Thanksgiving, I spent a week in Arbolito,
Ecuador. I had been hearing about this mission trip since an admission ambassador from St. John Paul spoke about
it to my 7th-grade class. I am blessed to have been able to achieve this goal and meet the loving people of Ecuador.
Service is not just a side note, but a body paragraph in our education as students, and growing Catholics.
Catholic schools can be a bit on the smaller size. Even if we pretend to hate it, there’s nothing better than having
teachers who know not just your name, but your interests, your skills, and your hopes for the future. The bonds we
form are strong, and the student-leaders allowed to emerge are
incredible. The fact is, every single individual in our schools is a leader. With a curriculum that stresses essential
life skills like communication and partnership coupled with the benefits of service, leaders are born and bred in
Catholic schools.
Finally, Catholic schools are built to create successful people. Catholic schools foster not only well-educated people,
but well-rounded and well-prepared students. We do not just learn, but we learn how to live as examples of Christ’s
love. We do not serve to look good, but we find joy and fulfillment in helping others. We go to beautiful schools
with staff that stand by us in our failures and our successes. They strive for us to be, not merely a success rate, but
successful people who are witnesses to Christ’s love.
Growing up, not many people understood why I stayed in Catholic schools.
I understand the importance of Catholic education that we’ve all had the
privilege to experience. I tell them “Catholic schools are unlike any other.
We do not only “Learn. Serve. Lead. Succeed”, but we learn to love, love to
serve, lead in our lives, and succeed in the next.
Thank you! Happy Catholic Schools Week!

Totus Tuus Society

T he Totus Tuus Society recognizes donors whose longstanding and generous support has helped create a school
of excellence dedicated to spiritual formation and academic success. ‘Totus Tuus’ is the apostolic motto of
the school’s namesake, St. John Paul II, and its meaning - “totally yours” - evokes the dedication of the Society’s
members to advance the school’s mission.” On May 24 a reception was held to honor the inaugural members of the
Society, which featured a performance by the members of the SJPII Concert Choir, student talks, and a brief state
of the school address by Mr. Keavy, the Head of School.

In Memory of Fanny Yalim Singer

(1959 – 2018)

O ur school community lost a beloved teacher, colleague and friend earlier this year when Fanny Yalim Singer,
a teacher of Mandarin Chinese at Saint John Paul II, passed away after an 11-year battle with cancer. Her
family asked that in lieu of flowers donations be made to SJPII to provide scholarships to deserving students.
The outpouring of gifts in Mrs. Singer’s memory was truly remarkable and is a testament to her impact on the
lives of her students, her family, friends, and the greater Cape Cod community. We are grateful to all those who
