This phonathon team was a very spirited, motivated, talented and enjoyable group of students, and they did amazing work in support of the Cathedral Fund*. I’m pleased to say that in 10 nights of calling alumni, parents, past parents, and friends of CHS, this team raised $47,633 in gifts and pledges for the Cathedral Fund! This is a record dollar amount of gifts and pledges for a single phonathon during recent years. Many of these students balanced their phonathon work with homework and came to work multiple nights. Some came to make calls after theatre and sports rehearsals and practices. A couple came after school, and one came during her Resource period to make calls. These students made powerful connections with CHS alums and parents and gained valuable experience in community relations. Most importantly, they served and gave back to Cathedral. Please take a moment to look at the team of callers below and congratulate those you know for their splendid efforts and record success in support of the Cathedral Fund. Those in italics were the top ten point leaders in acquiring pledges and gifts.

Your generosity is deeply appreciated. ~~~~~ Here is an essay, written by one of our seniors and reprinted here with his consent. True Wealth Daniel Flood – Brownsburg, Indiana Entered on December 15, 2010 Age Group: Under 18 Themes: charity & service, good & evil, goodness & kindness, humility Share This Essay: I’ve been to New Orleans and seen the destruction of Hurricane Katrina years after it passed; I’ve built houses in South Carolina in an area where the average income is well below the national average; and I’ve helped the homeless in my own city. Each person I have met while working has taught me a different lesson: lessons that I will never forget. Some people stand out more than others, but one man and the lessons he taught me stand out among the rest. Biloxi, Mississippi was hit hard by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. A native Mississippian, David was a frail 65 year old man who wore a stocking cap despite temperatures in the upper 80s. Hurricane Katrina took its toll on David’s small house; it was beat up with beetles in the wall and holes in the ceiling. While we took down the walls to replace the drywall and beetles fell on top of us, he stood a few feet behind us cracking jokes and telling stories. We took breaks and David showed us a card trick, a coin trick, or some other magic trick meant for a child. Despite being poor, he wore a smile on his face unmatched by any I have ever seen. How could a person as poor as David be as happy as he was? I believe money does not buy happiness. Money buys things: material possessions for material hearts. Americans have forgotten that having money is a luxury, not a necessity. A life should not be focused on the pursuit of money, rather the pursuit of happiness. David taught me to be content with the life that I have and not obsess over money. He built up his happiness over years of living a life with a child’s innocence. Happiness cannot be bought. True wealth can’t be measured in dollars. I believe true wealth can only be measured by a person’s soul. His house had beetles in the walls and holes in the ceiling, but he is the richest person I know. ~~~~~ Friday November 11th, is the next Dad's Day of this school year! Come with your son on Friday, November 11th for Cathedral Dad's Day! Make a commitment today to bring your son Friday, November 11th. Time: 6:00 AM Place: Cathedral Cafeteria 12 RSVP: bbair1@aol.com or Eddie Rivers <erivers@kidsvoicein. org > P.S. Wealth Management' If you haven't done anything with your old IRA, it's time to review your "wealth management." Invest in your son! What greater wealth can a man have than healthy, happy children? Also, "The Dad's Day Breakfast program seeks to include all sons at Cathedral. If your son's dad has passed away, or is not present in his son's life for some other reason, it could be an uncle, a granddad, a mother, etc., who attends the breakfast. Please also know, we have some dads who no longer have sons at Cathedral, but wish to continue attending the breakfasts, and would love to have "a Cathedral son" with whom to share a dad's day breakfast! If your son is interested, please call Bill Bissmeyer to make a reservation! Guest Speaker: Chief of Staff Kent Abernathy Kent Abernathy’s bio Kent grew up on a small farm in Redkey (Jay County), Indiana. Following high school, he was nominated to the United States Military Academy (West Point), graduating in 1979.

His military awards and decorations include: Army parachutist badge (paratrooper), Ranger tab, senior aviator badge (helicopter pilot), legion of merit with oak leaf cluster, Iraqi campaign medal with campaign star, and the bronze star medal.

The Enrollment Management Office recently mailed information about this process to families who received need-based tuition assistance during the current school year, but families can learn more by visiting www.gocathedral.com/tuition. Also, there are a few key changes to the process for next year that impact returning families: In the case of parents who are divorced or legally separated, Cathedral now requires each household to complete the process. Families now submit tax documentation directly to School & Student Services for Financial Aid (SSS) instead of to Cathedral. Families will receive tuition assistance awards at the time of re-enrollment (April).

Thank you, Duane Emery, Vice President for Enrollment Management ~~~~~ National Institute On Drug Abuse (NIDA) - Drug Facts Chat Day (a real time web chat): We were one of 71 schools from around the country participating in this first landmark event. Over 10,000 questions (combined) were submitted most of which were answered at some time during the day. We will receive a transcript in a few days to use with our classes. I am so proud of (most) of the students and how they represented Cathedral. This was a great learning experience for them to ask professionals to share their knowledge and viewpoint on all aspects of drugs and alcohol. Rebecca Pavlik-Heger MA, LMHC, LCAC, MAC, NCC Theology Department; Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor; Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor ~~~~~ Parents may inadvertently increase the likelihood that their children will use alcohol or other drugs. Have you ever heard parents say: “I’m not naive; I know most kids drink.” “All kids are going to experiment with alcohol” “Pretty much everyone drinks in high school.” “I tell my child, if he’s going to drink, I want him to do it at home.” “Alcohol and other drug use is an epidemic among teenagers.” Prevention studies consistently show that young people overestimate use, and underestimate abstinence, on the part of their peers and older teens. Many parents share these misperceptions, believing that “experimentation” and/or use are inevitable rites of passage for adolescents. In fact, the large majority of middle and high school students are not using alcohol or other drugs. In conveying, directly or indirectly, their own incorrect beliefs, parents unintentionally reinforce their children’s misperceptions, which can ultimately increase adolescent alcohol and other drug use. Parents play a significant role in their children’s lives and in preventing their use and abuse of substances, especially as children grow into adolescence and face new risks, pressures and challenges. By knowing what is really going on in their child’s world – that most of their child’s peers don't use alcohol or other drugs, don't smoke marijuana, don't have parents who allow them to drink, don't think it's cool to get drunk - parents can speak to their children about these issues from a position of confidence and strength, rather than fear and speculation Prevention is strengthened when parents help their children develop accurate beliefs about their peers' behaviors.

I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless and you gave to shelter. I was ill and you came to see me.” “It is not one person alone who builds; nor is it one stone, or one single beam of wood which forms it. Each worker contributes something from his or her own trade; each stone is cut to fit into its one appointed place and each piece of wood is arranged and placed so as to enhance the general effect of the entire building.” Basil Moreau. Our service efforts are like pieces of the mosaic which all come together and form the living heart and love of Jesus. Our gifts vary and, as such, we create a rich tapestry and message of love with our actions. We link our hearts to our Lord and other brothers and sisters as we seek the kingdom of God. Class Service Projects Class service projects become perfect opportunities for off-season sport groups and families. Details on all of these class service projects in November are noted below in Service Opportunities. Our freshmen have supported the Catholic Charities Christmas Store on Oct 12 with twelve bulging bags of toys and 750 pairs of socks for families shopping at the Christmas Store in December. Click here for more details about the freshman class service project in this month on November 17th and 18th.

Service Festival-Tuesday, November 15, 2011 On Tuesday, Nov 15, from 9:30-11:00, our students will be experiencing education and experiential learning projects in ten areas of societal needs. Ranging from low cost housing needs and working with Habitat for Humanity to the special needs and hunger, our students will be exposed to the missions of many not for profits in the community, learn about community problems, and acquire ways they can commit to assist humanitarian needs in Indianapolis. Parent Volunteers For The Service Festival On November 15th, parent volunteers would be greatly appreciated to greet and support speakers for our ten areas of humanitarian focus. Please let Mrs. Halstead know (email: chalstead@cathedral-irish.org) if you could help graciously support our visitors on Tuesday, November 15 from 9:30-11. Thanks so much.

Injuries are a part of all sports and it is hard to compete when you are not at full strength. You can also cause serious injury to your body if you don't correctly address the issue. The same reasoning applies in the classroom. If your grades aren't up to par and you need to see them improve, turn to your teacher and ask for help. More serious injuries and academic deficiencies can sometimes be prevented by early intervention!

(1 Corinthians 3:16) Anniversaries are important to all of us. Some of those anniversaries are even connected to a particular place: the church where we were baptized or married, the new house we moved into, our parents’ gravesite. Being in these special places stirs up memories and sometimes inspires us to rededicate ourselves to a special person or cause. But why is this church in Rome so important that the anniversary of its dedication is celebrated throughout the world? For a thousand years, the Lateran Basilica was the residence of the Bishop of Rome, and it still contains the “cathedra,” the chair that symbolizes his office. Even though the pope today celebrates more official functions at the larger St. Peter’s, St. John Lateran is still “the mother and head of all churches of the city and of the world,” as the inscription on its façade proclaims. When we step into a sacred space like a church, especially if we take time to quiet our spirits, we become aware of the presence of God. But St. Paul reminds us that we are also God’s dwelling-place. He tells us that we should be just as aware of his presence in us, and in every other believer. St. Augustine puts it well: “As often as we celebrate the dedication festival of a … church, if we worship attentively, what is done in temples made with hands is done also in us spiritually. For he lied not who said, ‘The temple of God, which you are, is holy.’ Therefore, since we are the temple of God —not because we deserve it but only by his grace —let us work hard, with his help, to be a fitting place for the Holy One to dwell.” Those charged with keeping a great cathedral clean and in good repair take this responsibility very seriously. We should work at least as hard at polishing God’s image in ourselves, letting his love shine out from us! And while we’re at it, let’s look at every fellow believer with the same awe, as a holy dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. “Holy Spirit, thank you for coming to live in me. Make me into a worthy temple for your presence.” Blessings, Principal Cathedral High School dworland@cathedral-irish.org 35
