Embracing Our Mission
A Letter from Father Olson
PECO President Denis O’Brien ’78 and
Bonner-Prendie President Rev. James P. Olson
Greetings from Monsignor Bonner!
Ralph Waldo Emerson once said,
“Nothing great was ever achieved
without enthusiasm.” Here at Msgr.
Bonner we embrace our mission with
enthusiasm so that we might draw
greatness from ourselves and the
young men entrusted to us.
We are one of the few high schools
in the country to have an entirely
wireless campus! Our goal is to make
sure that our students are academically
competitive with anyone in the country
and able to function well in the rapidly
changing global dynamics of the 21st
Century. Our Catholic world view and
belief in the power of Jesus Christ
to transform our lives and the world
around us promotes good moral development and good citizenship. Our kids
are extraordinarily service oriented and
open to the spiritual aspects of life.
We are also marking a wonderful
occasion at Bonner this year. Vince
Donohue, our legendary Mathematics teacher is celebrating his 50th year
educating young men on the Bonner
campus! What a remarkable achievement for one of the finest teachers in
the state. Congratulations, Vince!
Of course, your financial support is
always welcome. In fact, the financial
contributions of Msgr. Bonner alumni
represent a vital resource for the
school’s programs and services as well
as making it possible for our struggling
families to send their son to Bonner in
a tough economy. If you would like to
make a contribution, or have an idea
for an innovative gift, please contact
me or Jim Catrambone in the Office
for Institutional Advancement. Please
know that we will soon be conduct-
ing our Annual Appeal, a vital help to
advancing our mission!
You can stay up to date with what is
happening at Bonner by checking out
our improved website and following us
on Facebook and Twitter. I look forward
to the opportunity to meet you faceto-face when you stop by Bonner for a
game, play or event. Alumni are always
welcomed home here at Bonner!
God Bless!

A Moment of
Reflection
Two Bonner greats:

Y
ou’d be hard-pressed to
traverse the great state of
Pennsylvania and not find a
football fan that didn’t at least have
a little knowledge of Penn State
football’s only Heisman Award winner1
— John Cappelletti. He is placed on a
very exclusive pedestal of “greats” that
grew up in Delaware County and was
all-everything at Monsignor Bonner.

The front jacket
cover of the
just released
hardcover book
Green Bananas,
The Wisdom
of Father
Bill Atkinson,
displays the
following, ”To
many he was
a saint… to
his family, he was a hero… for us, this
holy man can be a source of wisdom
and love.” The book that author Steve
McWilliams ’72 compares to Tuesdays
with Morrie, lends personal insight into
the deep thoughts of long-time Bonner
icon Father Bill Atkinson.
In the 2000 year history of the
Catholic Church, Father Bill was the first
quadriplegic ordained to the priesthood
and almost his entire ministry was here
at Monsignor Bonner until his passing in 2006. Many alumni are blessed
as witness to Father Bill’s faith. Each
has offered that they had been in the
company of a very special person. As
Monsignor Bonner-Archbishop Prendergast
High School’s Advancement Department
welcomes you in all capacities of service.
We are dedicated to our mission and growing in every effort to know you and serve
you better.

I read the second draft of the text this
summer, I gained a much greater understanding of what influence he may
have been on others. Many Bonner men
were touched and inspired by Father
Bill. This is one of the reasons why Steve
McWilliams’ personal witness is so gripping. Let’s just say Steve wasn’t exactly
enamored at first volunteering to help
Fr. Bill! Steve served for 18 years in the
care of Father Bill before even having
a conversation of substance with him!
It is a remarkable test of his faith and
search for purpose.
Green Bananas was officially
“launched” following the 5th anniversary of Father Bill’s passing this past
September 15th. Nearly 200 people attended mass in the Prendergast chapel.
So many important people in Fr. Bill’s
life came to share in the evening. More
than 150 copies of the book were sold.
Bonner will receive $5 for each book
sold through the school.
To purchase this 176-page piece
of Bonner’s unique and historic story,
call the Office of Advancement at
610-259-6012 or stop by school during
usual business hours.
Servant Leaders
The line attributed to the greatest
servant of all is found in Matthew’s
gospel,1 “But the greatest among you
shall be your servant.”
It is said that Robert K. Greenleaf coined
and defined the phrase “servant leadership” in the early part of the 20th century
and that many famous authors like
Remembering all that served
Stephen Covey, Ken Blanchard, Margaret
Wheatley and others used it commonly in their writings. In simple definition
servant-leaders achieve results by giving priority attention to the needs of
their colleagues and those they serve. They demonstrate a spiritual understanding of identity, mission, vision and environment and so, the servantleader contributes to the well-being of people and community.
As the 10th anniversary of the unthinkable attacks on 9-11-01 approached
we put out word on Facebook, our websites, through E-mail blast and via
grassroots calling soliciting the names of Bonner alumni who have or are
presently serving in the military. The list of names sent to us can be seen
on the Bonner website, www.bonnerhigh.com. We fully recognize this
is a partial and very limited list and by no means should it be thought of
as comprehensive. It does, however, illustrate the immense contribution

In an effort to defray expenses of
maintaining programs and extra
curricular for the students, Bonner
is providing multiple marketing
opportunities for businesses that
may see value in advertising with
us. As well, a straight financial gift
from a business could become a
tax deductible donation.
We are now offering new advertising
space on our electronic sign at the
always busy intersection of Garrett and
N. Lansdowne Avenues (limited number
for maximum exposure), space on both
(Bonner & Prendie or either) websites,
play bills ad space for the fall and spring
shows, and ads for the Friar Fest and
Beach Blast programs.
If you own a business that may be
interested in embellishing your marketing strategy, or... if you’d like to affirm
your support of Bonner, or… if you can
provide a qualified lead to one we should
reach, please respond with the necessary contact information and we will be
happy to follow up!

Letter From the Editor
Dear Monsignor Bonner
Alumni and friends,
It might be fair to say that the
Advancement Office has been as busy
as the local weather forecasters! Like
everyone else in the Philly area, we
weathered a summer that included
record rain and subsequent flooding,
a hurricane and an earthquake. Similarly, Bonner has weathered the storm
of rumors and naysayers about our
long-term future with a fantastic
freshmen class.
Case in point, Bonner remains a
single-gender Catholic school for young
men in all core courses and in student
life. This was our top objective in
2010-11. Allow me to say an emphatic,
“Thank YOU” to our donors that made
this possible. It is a great blessing to
have so many of you sharing in our
mission. We take both pride in maintaining an educational model that remains
measurably effective, especially to our
most recent graduates entering colleges
and universities.
Specific to the numbers, we finished
fiscal 2011 with a balanced internal
budget and reduced our anticipated
debt obligation by 50%. The $500K
Challenge campaign redeemed 96% of
gifts and pledges in very unpredictable
economic times. We received a check
the day I was writing this letter and still
hope we can exceed all minimum goals
for the current Annual Appeal recently
launched in October.
Last year’s two funds (Annual Appeal
& $500K challenge) helped us attain
a 57% increase in solicited funds over
last fiscal year! Perhaps the best news
arrived in the form of a bequest (see
article included).
We encourage more to share in
supporting our mission. As I wrote
before, Monsignor Bonner’s work with
young men in these challenging times
is compelling enough to merit your
financial support.
This year we celebrate two incredible
people, Mr. Vince Donahue and Father
Bill Atkinson. Clearly one of the “best
of the best” is Mr. Donohue. This year
44
Jim Catrambone, Director of Institutional Advancement, and Kim Kelley, Senior Coordinator
of Stewardship for Monsignor Bonner
he is celebrating his fiftieth year on the
faculty at Monsignor Bonner; and the
5th anniversary of Fr. Bill Atkinson just
past in September. The book Green Bananas on his wisdom and thoughts was
launched the same evening (See more
inside this newsletter).
As promised, we upgraded our
network infrastructure and are a big
“hot spot” for wireless connectivity
in Delaware County. In addition, the
bathrooms outside the cafeteria are
completely renovated!
The Bonner alumni association is twothirds, if not better, of the way toward
having a pair of class reps per year. If
you would like to serve in this capacity
or want to see which years are missing,
call me so I might hook you in with the
Executive committee!
Finally, but perhaps most importantly,
we remember and honor all Bonner
alum who served in the military in
conjunction with the 10th anniversary
of 9/11. Whether we heard about your
service or not (and man we tried to
gather as much as we could) we thank
you all for serving our great country and
the glorious freedoms we richly enjoy!
Again, thank you sufficiently for
making Bonner an important charitable
consideration.
Kind regards and blessings,
Jim Catrambone
Director of Institutional Advancement
Go Green!

Educational Income Tax Credits
Would you consider helping families to choose Bonner for their
child by receiving tax credits from the state of Pennsylvania?
Educational Income Tax Credits (for
Businesses) is better known for the
acronym, E I T C. Pennsylvania made
history 10 years ago by becoming the
first state to pass an education tax
credit aimed at corporations. Even
many accountants are unaware that
approximately three years ago the tax
credit was expanded to all other “Pass
through” organizations.
The EITC provides children and families
with a choice in their education and a
chance in life.
Specific to Monsignor Bonner and
Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High
School, through the EITC program a
business’ tax dollars could be redirected
to benefit students who desire but cannot afford to attend Bonner or Prendie.
The process is facilitated in three
easy steps:
Step 1: A company decides if it pays
any of these listed PA taxes. Corporations who qualify are those who pay
one or all of the following taxes:
1. Subchapter S Corps, Limited Partnerships and other Pass through
organizations (for example filing
PA Forms 20S or 65)
2. Corporate net income tax
3. Capital stock franchise tax
4. Band & trust company shares tax
5. Title insurance company shares tax
6. Insurance premiums tax
7. Mutual thrift institutions
Step 2: Consult with an accounting
firm (dealing in PA Business Taxes) &
Decide to Apply and How. The form
is only one page. Bonner’s Office of
Advancement can help provide you
assistance in the filing process.
Step 3: Consider Monsignor Bonner and
Archbishop Prendergast for your Gift
We have conducted two information
sessions on this opportunity and would
be glad to run more at your request.
Bonner is looking for businesses that
might consider participation in this
program. We have invoked the assistance of BLOCS in helping facilitate
not only the applying but also in the
timely submitting of the application
to the State of PA. The absolute, rigid
deadline is July 1, 2012.
If you would like to consider this
opportunity, please contact:
Jim Catrambone
Director of Institutional Advancement
610-259-6012 or
Catrambone@bonnerprendie.com.
SCHOLARSHIPS & PLANNED GIVING
Everything in our commercial world
today is positioned as EXTREME! TV
brings us extreme makeovers of buildings and homes, complete transformations of people’s bodies, “big losers”
and polygamists, crazy housewives
“living the life,” amazing races around
the world and pampered athletes
refusing to honor contractual obligations because they only make half a
million dollars!
However, there is always that one
welcome exception! Father Olson was
EXTREMELY, over-the-top happy to
receive a single gift for $750,000 this
past year. As such, Bonner has established the Robert C. Dunn Scholarship
Fund which, per the will of Mr. Dunn,
restricts all money to scholarships for
incoming freshmen and must be spread
over a 10 year period. “It was a spectacular gift that comes at the most opportune time in our history,” says Father
Olson. “We are very grateful for forward
thinkers like Mr. Dunn. Some people
lament what they can’t do in this tough
economy. Remembering Bonner in your
will is something all of us can do.”
Please consider including Monsignor
Bonner in your will. In so many cases,
$500 or $1,000 towards a student’s
tuition over four years may made a complete difference in not just the student’s
life but perhaps in the future of their entire family. For more information, contact
Advancement at 610-259-6012.
The Legend
( continued from page 1)
This is not about that John Cappelletti.
This reflection is about John A.
Cappelletti Sr., born in Nereto, Italy,
devoted husband of Anne C. Cappelletti (nee Bianco), and father of Martin,
John, Jr., Michael, Jean, and Joseph.
His presence commanded a level of
respect and cordiality; not because he
required it but because it was required.
Mr. Cappelletti passed into eternal life
six months ago.
Dee Vaughn is an enormous fan of
everything “Cappelletti”, but especially
John and Anna as she referred to them.
Dee often described John as “…totally
engaging and quite affable, he loved
Bonner the best.” She continues, “He
was immensely talented with a great
wit and a terrific sense of humor. John
would arrive early at Bonner (before
many staff) and see if there was any
needed repairs and just do it without
being asked.” She adds, “One of Mr.
Cappelletti’s great loves was helping the
boys open their lockers and then telling
them to tuck in their shirts and look like
Bonner men! He truly loved his days at
Bonner — he was the best!”
God bless you, Mr. Cappelletti, you
are loved and remembered. You and
Anne provided Bonner one of Pennsylvania’s premier athletes, and as such we
have been richly blessed. God and Bonner blessings to the Cappelletti family;
we miss him too!
Servant Leader
( continued from page 2)
Bonner grads have made in defense of
our country and the freedoms we cherish as the greatest of all nations.
We didn’t ask to assemble the names
of the many who have served as police
officers, firefighters, EMT and other first
response emergency personnel, civil servants and political representatives. If so,
we would have needed to assemble an
encyclopedic book! But it seemed right
to want to say “thank you” for your
service to us and our great nation. May
God always bless you for your leadership in serving and especially bless
those who sacrificed their lives that we
might remain free.

Technology
Bonner is the Flagship
During the recent Archdiocesan labor
stoppage, among a myriad of issues,
one repeating topic in media coverage
was that our Catholic schools need to
“prepare our students in a 21st century
learning environment.” If you have
read the last two issues of The Friar,
you know problem solving and creative
expression is very different for the class
of 2011 versus what you might have
experienced. We live in a global society
with many areas of interdependence.
Who among us isn’t aware that financial
troubles in Greece this summer have
caused a negative ripple effect on the
United States economy that we are still
feeling? Again, the informed reader of
The Friar knows that Bonner is setting the
pace in the Philadelphia Archdiocese as a
premier leader in 21st century learning!
When the final tallies are compiled,
and beyond all the SmartBoards
and A/V equipment already in place,
Bonner & Prendie combined will have
approximately 250 netbooks, 250 Apple
MacBooks, 10 iPads for teachers/staff
and 12 computer labs with 36 stations
in each lab (432 PCs). Indeed we are
prominent citizens of the 21st Century
school district.
An additional 112 upperclassmen
have registered their own “learning”
device for use in the school. Once all
the laptops are distributed to each of
our freshman, 34% of the entire student
population will have a personal device
while running our dual pilot program.
As is commonly said, the real story
will be in the numbers relating to our
students success. For your information,
here is the statistical breakdown for
Bonner’s Class of 2011:
BONNER
4-Year college or university = 64%
2-Year college = 33%
Other = 3%
Scholarship = $8,643,888
