Celebrating

1964

Message from the President

Greetings to all of you from Bishop DuBourg High

School! I have become re-energized by the mission

of Bishop DuBourg since becoming President on

July 1, 2013. As previous administrators so often

stated: it is the people of Bishop DuBourg – students, parents,

faculty and staff, alumni and other stakeholders – who are the

precious treasure of our mission. The people of Bishop DuBourg

make all of our planning and efforts to educate our students and

form disciples worthwhile, enjoyable and fruitful.

Our Faith Formation Team (FFT) recently completed an assess-

ment of our faith formation program which can be found on

our website at www.bishopdubourg.org/db/faith-service. This

assessment re-affirmed many of our efforts in Religion classes,

campus ministry and maintaining a Catholic culture at Bishop

DuBourg; it also pointed out some specific recommendations

for improvement. Please read the abridged version (11 pages) or

full version (117 pages) on our website. I am grateful to the entire

team, especially Dr. Mike Bahr and his wife, Dr. Christine (Nauert)

Bahr, DB ’76, who led the effort.

Academically, we continue to serve a wide variety of students.

We pride ourselves on being a comprehensive school that can meet

the needs of the academically gifted and those who significantly

struggle with learning. Our co-ed makeup also enriches our

diversity. This year, our Academy of Advanced Studies inducted 19

students from the class of 2018 and three from the class of 2017.

Chief Dennis Jenkerson ’76 served as keynote speaker.

As Bishop DuBourg ventures into the future, we are examining

ways to improve our gym roof, our technology infrastructure and

services, science labs and endowment. Our Board and various

teams are helping us discern ways to fund these improvements

and involve our stakeholders in the process.

On April 23rd & 24th, we will host an External Review Team

Visit as part of our AdvancED school accreditation process.

During this visit, the team conducts interviews, reviews school

documents and student performance data and makes profes-

sional observations to determine the degree to which the school

meets Standards for accreditation. We will use the findings from

the team to further our continuous improvement efforts.

In Jesus Christ our Savior,

advisory Board news:

Bishop DuBourg re-vamped its Board structure in 2013-14 by start-ing a Donor Development Team that helps our Advancement Office in recruiting for and promoting our events, helping with alumni reunions, and increasing participation in our DB Forever Annual Fund. We

also established a Facilities Team to help us prioritize and plan our capital

improvements. A Solar Panel Team was formed in May, 2013 to help oversee

the installation of one solar panel array on our easternmost roof that covers

the Music and Family and Consumer Science classrooms. Our DB Advisory

Board of Education meets three times per year; members of this “big board”

meet regularly in regular team meetings. Members of these teams, as well as

our DB Advisory Board, can be found below.

2 The Cavalier

In March of 1964, the Cavalier basketball team brought home Bishop DuBourg’s first State Title. This team’s “red-clad conquest” left their mark in Bishop DuBourg history. The ’64 team played for

State in the Washington University Field House vs. the

Parkview Vikings and clinched the title with a 62-52

victory.

On March 8, 2014, the 50th anniversary of their

historic achievement, the team received the highest

athletic honor a DB alum can achieve — induction into

the Athletic Hall of Fame (see Hall of Fame story on

page 16).

The DB community wanted to connect the ’64 team

with the current student body, allowing them to meet

firsthand DB history. Members of the team returned

to their old stomping grounds and were honored at

the Winter Pep Rally. Standing in center court of the

gym where it all started, the members of the ’64 team

received a standing ovation from an enthusiastic DB

crowd. Showing that age hasn’t slowed them down,

they competed in a free throw contest. Our “Rowdy

Crowd” gave them the cheers they deserved. The 2014

Varsity basketball team was honored to meet these leg-

endary Cavaliers whose 1964 victory still echoes in the

main lobby and in Ray Bayens Alumni Hall where their

memorabilia is proudly displayed.

That same evening our legendary team returned

to campus for a recep-

tion. They were guests

at the Varsity basket-

ball game vs. Kennedy

Catholic High School.

At halftime the ’64

Cavaliers signed a

basketball commemo-

rating their 50th anni-

versary. Standing at half court in the Floyd Hacker Gymnasium

the team of ’64 received yet another standing ovation. Their DB

spirit is still going strong even after 50 years — once a Cavalier

always a Cavalier! The celebration confirmed the DB motto

that every day truly is a “Great Day to be a Cavalier!”

All Academy members

2014 Academy inductees

The Academy of Advanced Studiesadvance, achieve, succeed

The Academy of Advanced Studies was established in 2012 to offer students a rigorous academic pro-gram. DB faculty and staff challenge their students to achieve an extremely high level of academic excellence.

We want our students to realize that their talents are a gift

from God, to be developed and used for others.

Students are accepted into the program during admis-

sions. Space in the program is limited for each grade level.

Students must score 85% or above on standardized tests

and/or have a B+ average to be considered as candidates.

Each year the students enroll in an Academy Seminar

Course in Social Studies or Religion and in courses designed

as enriched, honors, advanced, or college credit. These

classes move fast and require independent work.

Students in the program have additional gradua-

tion requirements. They must take 16 enriched, honors,

advanced, college credit or seminar courses during their

four years. They must exemplify hard work and responsibil-

ity, demonstrate leadership, respect for others, maintain

excellent attendance, and have at least a 3.5 G.P.A.

Now in its third year, the Academy boasts members of

the Classes of 2015, 2016, and 2017 for a total of 49 students.

The Academy welcomed 19 new students from the Class of

2018 and three from the Class of 2017 during an induction

ceremony on March 13, 2014.

Each year the Academy hosts a guest speaker. The

2012 inaugural class welcomed Colonel Jeannie M. (Flynn)

the sweet sound of victory

For the first time in recent history at Bishop DuBourg our Cavaliers were represented in both the Missouri All-State Choir and the Missouri All-State Jazz Band.

For junior bassist Nathan Pence (right) and junior vocalist Jordan Wolk (left), the road to state began in October 2013 when they auditioned for the St. Louis All-District Jazz Band and St. Louis All-District Choir respectively. Both competed against talented high school students from throughout the St. Louis area for the chance to join these exclusive groups.

Nathan, after being named an alternate last year, made the Jazz Band as the top high school jazz bassist in St. Louis.

Jordan made the Choir as one of the top high school bass voices in St. Louis.

Both young men performed successfully with these groups in November 2013.

Their journey was not over. By making the St. Louis All-District ensembles, Nathan and Jordan then qualified to audition for top honors in the state of Missouri. In December 2013 both auditioned for their respective groups, competing against the best in the state. Amazingly, both young men were winners!

Nathan made the All-State Jazz Band as the top high school jazz bassist, and Jordan made the Choir as one of the state’s

top high school bass voices. Nathan and Jordan traveled to Osage Beach, MO at the end of January 2014 to perform with their ensembles at the Missouri Music Educators Association State Convention. Both performances were fantastic.

So where do these talented young men go next? Both are getting ready to apply for the All-National ensembles. We wish them luck as they look to achieve this next prestigious honor.

The accomplishments of these young men may not have been possible without the constant support and encourage-ment of Mr. Matt McKeever, DB’s Director of Music. In his second year on staff, Matt has made an immense impact on the music department and his enthusiasm can be felt school-wide (read his poem on page 9).

1993 and is now the Commander of the 4th Fighter Wing

at Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro, North

Carolina. The 2013 Academy class welcomed Mr. Ken Page

’72, an actor known for his work on Broadway in Cats, The

Muny, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Dreamgirls, and

All Dogs Go to Heaven. This year’s inductees welcomed

Mr. Dennis Jenkerson ’76, Chief of the St. Louis City Fire

Department. He is a third generation St. Louis firefighter

with over 30 years of experience.

The Academy of Advanced Studies is an excellent

opportunity for students to challenge themselves in and

out of the classroom. They have travelled to Chicago and

toured the Navy Pier, Willis Tower Sky Deck Observation,

Shed Aquarium, Field Museum of Natural history, and

the Art Institute of Chicago. They have Skyped with Jesuit

Brother Bob Macke ’92 at the Vatican Observatory and

with David Christian, co-founder (along with Bill Gates)

of The Big History Project. This summer the students will

visit Washington, D.C. to see the Library of Congress,

the National Monument, the Smithsonian, and Arlington

National Cemetery. Our Academy students will have an

incredibly strong foundation to build their educational

future on. The DB community is excited to see where life

takes them next.

Tupelo is located in the north-eastern corner of Mississippi, an area commonly known as the Hills Region. The birthplace

of Elvis Presley, Tupelo is a city that

serves as a regional hub, a mere 90

miles from Memphis, TN. Tupelo is

also the location where DB students

volunteer outside of our state’s bor-

der twice a year with the Northeast

Mississippi affiliate of Habitat for

Humanity.

This summer DB will embark on

a fourth trip down south to serve

the less fortunate. Two faculty mem-

bers, Mrs. Jen Duncan ’88, and Mr.

Steve Radomski will accompany up

to 12 students on this adventure. Our

Cavaliers can expect to work hard on

a variety of tasks from framing walls,

shingling a roof, painting, or tiling

while at the Habitat site.

Although basic carpentry skills are

learned on the trip, they are the least of

the wonderful things students acquire

from the experience. They will learn

to give of themselves and exceed their

expectations in skill and strength.

Students meet the future homeowner

and see firsthand the impact their

service. They will learn that serving for

the sake of others is beyond priceless.

The students form a Christian com-

munity as they work, pray, and reflect

on their experience. They will see the

fruits of their labors and they will be

proud of their accomplishments.

Instilling patience and hard work

into this generation of teenagers —

who are accustomed to today’s instant

gratification culture — can be a cum-

bersome task, but the service work

of Habitat opens their eyes to see the

world beyond themselves.

At Bishop DuBourg, this Tupelo

service trip enacts our motto, “Faith in

Christ…Service to Others.” It is a liv-

ing motto, one that is taught through

experience. Some of life’s best lessons

are learned outside the classroom,

especially in Tupelo, Mississippi.

SThe current population of Bishop DuBourg consists of students from all over the St. Louis area — diverse in race, religion,

learning styles, and backgrounds.

Despite their differences, they are

all united under our mission, put-

ting faith and Christ first and fore-

most in our lives. DB is a Catholic

institution where students are given

countless venues to express their faith.

One example is DB’s Pro Life Club,

an extra-curricular outlet that pro-

motes the value of life in its entirety

— affirming life at every stage.

Although abortion is a major con-

cern with Pro Life, there are other fac-

tors as well. As Catholics it is our job

to make sure that people are properly

cared for their entire lives up to their

very last breath. Students are given

the background and skills necessary

to defend their stand for life. The club

is moderated by Ms. Bridget Timoney

and Mrs. Michon Pals.

With over 50 participants, the Pro

Life Club has been very active on cam-

pus this academic year. They have

hosted two blood drives in conjunc-

tion with the American Red Cross.

The group will participate in 40 Days

of Life during Lent with a prayer vigil

at St. Louis City Planned Parenthood.

They will host Grandparents’ and

Senior Citizens’ Day on Wednesday,

April 9. They will conclude the aca-

demic year with a collection for Sweet

Cavaliers Defending Life — Womb to Tomb

Babies at St. Mary’s Hospital in May.

The group works closely with the

DuBourg House. Adjacent to the

DB campus, the DuBourg House is

an assisted living residence run by

Cardinal Ritter Senior Services. The

Pro-Life Club hosted a Halloween

party for the residents. The club

raised funds and granted Christmas

wishes for the residents, delivering

gifts and serving meals at their annual

Christmas party.

Working with the DuBourg House

is a worthy cause. The residents are

thrilled to see the club members and

the students learn to interact with the

elderly, gaining an appreciation for the

value of life at every stage.

Pro Life Club activities reflect their

motto of “respecting life from womb

“A person is a person, no matter how small.”Dr. SeuSS

to tomb” defending the rights of the

unborn to the elderly.

The most public forum the stu-

dents have is the annual March for

Life in Washington, D.C. This year

33 students from the club travelled

by bus to our nation’s capital for the

March. Ms. Timoney and Mrs. Pals

hope the students returned humbled

by the experience and empowered to

speak out against injustice.

Jessica Lambert ’14 reflected on

the trip saying, “I went on the Pro Life

trip to D.C. because I believe in saving

lives not ending them. It’s important

to me that everyone, especially teen-

agers, understand that. That’s what

was cool about the March, thousands

of young people standing up for what

they believe in.”

The members of the Class of 1960 worked tirelessly to raise the funds for a new entrance to the Ray Bayens Alumni Hall. The

transformation is impressive. Their

efforts have made a substantial

improvement to the school’s appear-

ance, but more importantly, they have

demonstrated how a class can make a

uSThe story of Becky Canino ’14 and Mary Mazzuca’s ’15 expe-rience of going to State for

tennis is a wonderful example of how

hard work and determination pays off.

Their story shows that raising the bar

only makes one work harder to attain

a goal. In this case the goal was to earn

the first State Banner for Tennis at DB.

Becky’s first State appearance was

Believe in the Banner

in 2012 with her doubles partner Dory

Bohac ’14, along with Laura Engel

’13 in singles. They were the first ten-

nis players in the history of DuBourg

to qualify for the state tournament.

Becky and Dory lost both of their

matches, finishing 16th, and seemed

to be just in “awe” of the experience.

Seeing so many good players in one

setting can be a little intimidating.

After that day, Becky set a goal for her-

self to medal at State. She knew that

the goal was lofty. She had just started

playing tennis as a sophomore.

For the 2013 season Mary Mazzuca

’15 was chosen as Becky’s doubles

partner. Mary is a fierce competi-

tor and had a strong will to work to

actively get better. Mary had only been

playing for one year, and had not yet

had any Varsity experience. So, this

“Have high expectations,

strive for the best. Don’t become

beaten down by your losses.”

BECkY CANINO ’14

Pictured left with Coach Steve Mense and Mary Mazzuca ’15

past summer, Becky and Mary started

playing together. Every doubles drill

in practice, they did together. Every

single regular season match, they

played together. They just kept getting

better and better every single day, to

the point that they finished the sea-

son with a 16-4 record, including a

6-0, 6-0 individual sectional victory to

advance to State, which is a bracket of

only 16 doubles teams.

The state tournament was held in

Springfield, MO at the Cooper Tennis

Complex. In the first round Becky and

Mary treated it like any other match.

They came out fast and won 6-1, 6-4.

After that match, Becky recalled the

sense of excitement coming on, and

their “I think we can do this” attitude

was born. They had a chance.

A win in their second round match

would guarantee a top four finish.

From the first point, the match was

highly competitive. After 2.5 hours of

playing, Becky and Mary won a hard

fought 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 match.

That victory put them in the semi-

finals. The next day they lost to the

team that won the State Tournament.

Both Becky and Mary were great rep-

resentatives of DB. Coach Steve Mense

commented, “They were wonderful

examples for everyone on the team.

Becky and Mary gave every other

player hope that they can accomplish

great things if they work hard enough.”

Becky and Mary had attained their

goal. A State Banner for Tennis now

hangs in the gym.

To Be a CavalierIf someone asks me what it means to be a Cavalier,I’ll tell them first to listen close, to please lend me their ear.For what it means to be a lucky member of this crew,Is something that we cherish more than anything we do.We Cavaliers know what it means to serve our fellow man,To lend help to the sick and poor in any way we can.We welcome those from walks of life that differ from our own,Invite them to our table so they will not sit alone.We strive to do our best in class, to work hard ‘til we’re done,But know that it’s important to make time for having fun!Have faith in Christ and serve each other — that is our greatest goal,To leave this school a better being in heart, mind, and soul.So if someone would ask me, I can be both loud and clear,For I know deep down what it means to be a Cavalier.

DB’s Robotics’ Team has led a trifecta in awards. They were awarded the prestigious Motivate Award for 2012-2013 FTC season, followed by a presentation of the FLL Volunteer of the Year Award for Eastern Missouri, because of the stellar FLL Qualifier they hosted back on October 26–27, 2013.

The team also competed at SLU’s Chaifetz Arena on March 13–15 and took home the St. Louis Regional Engineering Inspiration Award. This award celebrates outstanding success in advancing respect and appreciation for engineering within a team’s school and community.

This win allows the team to advance the FIRST World Championship which takes place on April 24–26 at The Edward Jones Dome/America Center. The DB team will be one of 400 teams competing in this event from all over the world. The event is free and open to the public.

The Bishop DuBourg hall of Fame seeks to honor members of the DB community that have contributed significantly to the athletic program. Since the inaugural induction in 2001, 194 individuals and coaches have been honored. On March 8, 2014 the hall of Fame welcomed

its latest inductees. This year boasted 13 individuals and, for the first time,

an entire team was welcomed to this prestigious group. We honored the 1964

State Championship basketball team on the 50th anniversary of winning

the first State Title in DB history. The night was filled with moving speeches,

camaraderie, and Cavalier pride.

The music was swinging and the stage was set on January 31 – February 1, 2014. The Alumni guild Theatre performed for two sold

out audiences. Attendees were guided

on a trip down memory lane for the

Annual Musical Revue, Songs of the Big

Bands. Eighteen alumni performed

in the two act show which included

iconic songs such as Boogie-Woogie

Bugle Boy, Ain’t Misbehavin’, The Joint

Is Jumpin’, the patriot song Get Some

Cash For Your Trash, and the sultry

standard Stormy Weather.

Music for the evening was arranged

and directed by greg Schweizer ’73.

The band included five current DB

Jazz Band students, and Band Director

Mr. Matt McKeever on bass guitar.

Current guild Director, Jim Leibrecht

directed the staging, while three

alumni, Denise (O’Connell) Turner

’87, Kathy (Quinn) piercy ’76, and

Eileen Engel ’08 choreographed the

dance numbers.

The infamous Bishop DuBourg

Swing Dancers, directed by Mr. Don

Burrus performed as well. participants

included alumni and current dancers.

Additionally, current student guild

members offered their talents to the

production by working in the light and

gonna set my heart at ease”– Music by Les Brown and Ben Homer, lyrics by Bud Green

sound booth, serving refreshments,

and ushering attendees to their seats.

This exciting show was a true col-

laboration of the past and present.

“It was a special show because of the

very talented alums. This was the first

time alums from the Swing Dancers

were part of the performance. This

show brought alums on stage from

every decade since the guild began in

1972. The chemistry of the performers

was perfection. This was definitely the

most enjoyable of the six revues the

Alumni guild Theatre has done” said

Mr. Leibrecht. Funds raised from the

production will be directed towards the

flooring and lighting updates needed

in the Theatre. The guild thanks all

who attended, volunteered, or donated

to make the Revue so successful.

DB VeterAns memoriAl Project

Commemorating DB Heroes

Bishop DuBourg honored our DB heroes in a special way. Gary Myerscough ’64 envisioned a Veteran’s Memorial to commemorate our alumni who served honorably in the Army, Navy, Marine

Corps, Air Force, or Coast Guard. Gary’s idea was aided

by the efforts of JoAnn (DeCarlo) Eckrich ’64 and the

artistic talents of Christian Brother William Woeger ’63,

F.S.C. The three worked tirelessly to collect the names of

DB veterans, living and deceased, in conjunction with

former DB President Kirk Boschert (pictured at right)

who enthusiastically supported the project.

Their vision became a reality last summer with the

installation of Phase I of the project. Dedicated in

memory of Mark Howard ’65, James Lipper ’64, and Jerry

Aubuchon ’64, the memorial hosts 16 panels honoring

269 DB veterans whose class years spans generations.

The wall was dedicated and blessed on Veteran’s Day,

November 11, 2013. Those honored on the wall and

their families were invited to

a prayer service with the stu-

dent body. DB Eagle Scout

members presented the

Color Guard. The Veterans of

Foreign Wars Legion Post 15

processed in adding dignity

and to the event.

After prayer the crowd was

led to the memorial where Fr. Mike Lydon blessed the

wall and all whose names are on it. Gary Myerscough

’64 gave a passionate speech about what the memorial

means to him (photo top left). The veterans were then

welcomed to fellowship and a continental breakfast.

Angela Calloni ’98 Director of Advancement Operations

commented, “We are so proud of the rich history of

Bishop DuBourg alumni serving our country. This

memorial serves as a constant reminder of their sacri-

fice and bravery for our current students and for future

generations of Cavaliers.”

Phase I cost $11,000 and was funded solely by the

generosity of DB alums, family members and friends.

Phase II is underway. The Advancement Office is

continuing to accept names to be added to the wall (see

form at the top of page 19). This is a “living” project that

will grow as information on our DB veterans is received.

To contribute to the Memorial Project please com-

plete the bottom form at right and send it along with

your tax-deductible payment. Your generosity is greatly

appreciated.

Have you considered establishing a charitable gift annuity as a way to make a gift to Bishop DuBourg

High School and still receive a ben-

efit for yourself and/or your spouse

for the remainder of your lives?

Interest rates on CDs and other fixed

income investments have declined

over recent years. Individuals are in

search of ways to maintain cash flow,

seek the security of guaranteed pay-

ments and save on taxes.

Charitable gift annuities are offered

in four different types:

Single-Life Annuity – an annuity

payment to only one person for his or

her lifetime.

Spousal Joint-Life Annuity – an

annuity payment to married couples

(Upon death of the first annuitant,

the remaining spouse is paid the full

annuity payment during his or her

lifetime).

Two-Life Annuity – an annuity pay-

ment to one person and then transfers

to the second person upon the death

of the first person.

Deferred Gift Annuity – an annu-

ity payment that can be deferred to a

future date. (Date must be at least one

year after the original contribution).

With a charitable gift annuity you

can choose to receive your payments

quarterly, semi-annually or annually.

enjoy a Guaranteed Payment for life!

We are grateful for all members of the Bishop DuBourg Family who have remembered Bishop DuBourg High School through their Estate Planning. We’d like to acknowledge and thank those who have made the ultimate gift to Bishop DuBourg.

o I/We have already remembered Bishop DuBourg High School in our Estate Planning

Survival of the Fittest?“Survival of the fittest” goes to describe

That only those on top are bound to survive

I hate that phrase, ‘cause we each hold

What it takes to move forward, strong and bold

Bishop DuBourg is a faith-based place

A nice variety — gender and race

Coming together to learn and strive

Wanting to make it; wanting to thrive

The chains connecting each person here

Are bound when we put our hearts in gear

Today I saw a deed of acceptance

The value “equality” took an entrance

Practicing compassion, trying to find

Our place in the world, peace in our minds

Free from everything that ties us down

DB helps establish that ground

Showing us morals, right from wrong

We do listen even when the day’s too long

God’s greater plan is engraved in us

As we seek to find it, we have to trust

That this Catholic school will help us find

Our fulfilling purpose that’s following behind.
