2 Fall 2010 ❖ Pius Connections 2010 

Welcome 

Dear Pius X High School Alumni, Cathedral High School Alumni, Parents and 

Friends, 

What an exciting time the last six months has been for the Pius X High School 

community and for me! A few of the highlights include: 

• The 54th graduation ceremony for the 225 members of the Class of 2010 

(see page 25). 

• Installing artificial field turf on the Vince Aldrich Memorial Field, a designated 

gift from a few generous supporters of Pius X High School. This 

donation wasn’t even on the radar screen just one year ago (see page 11). 

• Having the track re-surfaced thanks to the Booster Club and having many student and parent 

volunteers to take the sod from Aldrich field and “plant” it on the Pius X practice fields. 

• Beginning the process of strategic planning to develop a systematic vision involving all major 

elements of our institution. This vision and its accompanying action plans will provide a greater 

sense of direction for the future (see Spring 2010 “Pius Connections”). 

• Having international writer, genocide survivor, and strong Catholic witness, Immaculée Ilibagiza 

speak to the 7th through 12th graders of the Lincoln Catholic Schools about the love of Christ and 

Mary for all of them and about the incredible blessing of our Catholic faith (see page 9). 

• In preparation for Immaculée’s visit, having the privilege to go on a pilgrimage with three other 

Pius X staff members and Immaculée to Rwanda, especially to Our Lady of Kibeho shrine (see 

page 9). 

• Being caught up by the runaway train of getting votes through Facebook as part of the Kohl’s 

Cares Competition (see page 8). 

• Winning $500,000 through the Kohl’s Cares competition to help build a new kitchen for Pius X 

and the Food Service Program (see page 8). 

• Completing the plans for the new kitchen so as to begin building (weather permitting) in January 

2011. 

• Honoring two wonderful, wonderful people at the Pius X Appreciation Reception: Tony Messineo 

and Monsignor Ivan Vap (see page 7 and page 26). 

• Starting another year of great opportunities to help our students and families grow in holiness and 

faith. 

• Seeing all the accomplishments of our students in the classroom and in their extra-curricular 

activities. 

• Having over 150 of our students go on the Fellowship of Christian Teens Retreat earlier this 

month and seeing their tremendous desire to grow in love for Christ and for each other. 

• Having twenty-one Pius X graduates presently in the seminary and five in formation for women 

religious orders. 

• Beginning this wonderful season of Advent/Christmas… always reminding me that God came 

and still comes to us in most unexpected ways! 

As you can see, there is much going on … and much, so very much, for which to be grateful. Thank 

you for most generously supporting Pius; most especially, thank you for praying that we may always 

strive to “Restore All Things in Christ” in all that we do. May you know the love and forgiveness 

of our Savior in a very special way this Advent and Christmas Season! 

Let us continue to pray for one another! 

Sincerely Yours in Christ, 

Father Jim Meysenburg 

Superintendent

“Due to my job, we have had to relocate numerous times. We have lived in nearly 

a dozen dioceses around the country. Early on, my wife, Sophia, and I made a 

commitment to keep our children in Catholic schools. This was not always the 

easiest decision because it often challenged our faith and our pocket books. Prior 

to moving to Lincoln, the price tag of a Catholic education was more than $24,000 

per year for four children, and, in some cases, schools seemed to be moving away 

from placing a strong emphasis on faith formation and Catholic identity. We feel 

it is a true blessing to be part of the Lincoln Diocese and the Pius X community. 

Not only does Pius provide our sons and daughters with a top rate academic and 

extracurricular program, it does so at a tuition rate that is more affordable than 

anywhere in the country. Most importantly, the spiritual formation and grounded 

Catholic teaching they receive at Pius X, I would contend, is second to none.” 

- Joseph A. Werning, Sr. - 

Dear Friends of Pius X High School, 

Thanks to the support of so many, last year’s Appeal was our most successful 

ever with over $216,000 raised for the school! Pius X’s mission continues to 

focus on providing students with the highest quality of academic preparation in a 

Christ-centered environment. Without you, our mission to inspire our students to 

become people of faith, leadership and service would not be possible. 

The 2010-2011 Annual Appeal, one of our school’s major fundraising initiatives, 

is now underway and off to a fantastic start. Letters were sent to all alumni, parents 

and friends of Pius X the first week of October asking for your consideration in 

investing in Pius X with a gift to the Annual Appeal. Thank you to everyone who 

has already made a donation and/or volunteered their time to this great cause. 

The Annual Appeal is Pius X’s yearly fund raising effort to generate revenues 

to ‘close the gap’ between the tuition charged and the actual cost associated 

with operating and maintaining our high school. Tuition alone does not cover 

the cost of a student’s education at Pius X High School. Thanks to the help 

from supporting parishes in the Lincoln Deanery, parish assessments pay $2,184 

per student in financial support. The ‘gap’ difference for the 2010-2011 year is 

$1,330 per student. This year, 1,062 young adults from the Lincoln community 

have chosen to attend Pius X High School. Most certainly, far fewer would be 

educated at our school if the actual cost of a student’s tuition (approximately 

$5,150) were to be charged. 

Gifts to the Annual Appeal impact every student and faculty member in 

strengthening and improving the overall quality of a Pius X education. Annual 

Appeal revenues support the operating budget to fund: 

♦♦ Pius X’s faith-based curriculum 

♦♦ Teacher’s salaries 

♦♦ Tuition Assistance – last year the Foundation awarded $29,000 in 

scholarships to 63 students! 

♦♦ Maintenance of the campus and building 

It is with a humble heart that I call upon your generosity again this year. We have 

so much to be grateful for at our school. We have included a return envelope 

in this mailing for your convenience. You may also make your pledge or gift 

online on the Pius X web page at www.piusx.net/foundation. Please click on 

the Annual Appeal link to either make a pledge or donate directly. For your 

donation, your name will be listed in the 2010-2011 Annual Report section of the 

Fall 2011 Pius Connection’s newsletter. 

The students of Pius X High School depend on your generosity. On behalf of the 

students, faculty and staff of Pius X, I am most grateful to you for your support.

Annual Appeal Frequently Asked Questions 

Annual Appeal 

then we will be able to meet our goal! Choosing to give to the 

Annual Appeal and the amount you determine to be ‘right’ for 

you is a decision based on your own specific situation. 

Does Pius X operate with a balanced budget 

Yes! Every year a budget is passed by the Board of Advisors 

and the budget is balanced. 

What is the Annual Appeal 

The Annual Appeal is a fund raising effort conducted to meet 

the operating needs of the school which are not covered by 

tuition. The Goal for Annual Appeal ’10 is to raise a minimum 

of $200,000. 

What does the Annual Appeal fund 

Tuition, fees, and parish assessments pay a portion of the 

actual cost of educating each student. A ‘gap’ of $1,330 exists 

between the actual cost ($5,150) of educating a Pius X student 

and the combined revenue of the average tuition ($1,636) 

and parish assessment ($2,184) per student. Historically, 

generosity by many Pius X supporters on an annual basis has 

served to provide funds to fund that gap, keep tuition costs 

more affordable, provide scholarships for those students with 

financial need and cover the operating costs throughout the 

year. 

Why don’t they just raise tuition 

For many years, Pius X has made every effort to keep the 

cost of tuition affordable for students in the Lincoln area who 

desire an education. Minor tuition raises have been necessary 

in the past to fund the programs and costs associated with a 

parochial faith-based high school. Without funding from the 

Annual Appeal, tuition cost per student would be prohibitive 

for many families. Regarding parent support in particular, 

financially supporting the Appeal allows parents tax benefits 

that simply raising tuition would not. 

What sources other than parents support the school 

Currently, every student attending Pius X receives financial 

support from donors. A portion of every student’s cost is paid 

in some part by donors. Students are also supported in large 

part by parish contributions. Last year, businesses, alumni, 

board members, grandparents and school parents supported 

the high school. 

What is an average gift contribution 

A $100 gift to the Annual Appeal from one family might be a stretch, 

and a $1,330 or more gift from another family to fund the 

‘gap’ might be relatively affordable. If you are financially 

capable of funding the gap difference per student, please 

consider making a contribution at ‘The Gap’ Giving Level. 

If a minimum of $100 is given for each of your children that 

either attended Pius X in the past or currently attends now, 

What benefits will I get by contributing to the Annual 

Appeal 

A gift to the Annual Appeal is a tax-deductible gift (tuition is 

not). Individuals who contribute gifts of $750 or more will 

be recognized yearly at the annual Friends of Pius X Dinner 

in August. Individuals contributing to the Annual Appeal 

are also acknowledged in the school’s publication, Pius X 

Connections. 

Is it possible to go without an Annual Appeal 

Only if the tuition equals the costs. 

Can I make a pledge to the Annual Appeal 

Absolutely! Pledges allow individuals and families the 

opportunity to consider larger commitments than they would 

usually consider by making a one-time gift. 

How should payments be made 

A donor may choose to pay in full, quarterly or semiannually. 

Checks should be made payable to the Pius X Foundation. 

Is my gift to the Annual Appeal Tax deductible 

Yes, all gifts are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. 

Can I pay for my gift via credit card 

Yes. Pius X will accept both Visa and MasterCard. 

Can I make my gift online 

Yes. To make your gift online, go to the Pius X web page 

at www.piusx.net. To make a direct gift, click on Donate 

Now link on the homepage and select Pius X Annual Appeal 

{Donate Now}. 

What about matching gifts 

Donors are encouraged to inquire about their employers’ 

matching gift program. These programs match the amount 

of the donor’s charitable gift often doubling or even tripling 

their donation. Please include a matching gift form with your 

gift. 

Are gifts of stock accepted 

Yes. Many donors prefer giving appreciated stock. The 

value of the stock determines the tax deduction on the date 

the transfer occurs. Donors do not have to pay capital gains 

taxes and the tax deduction varies with individual financial 

circumstances. Donors are encouraged to consult with their 

financial advisor. Please contact the Foundation Office at 

(402) 488-1046 for assistance with transferring stock.

We look forward to having you as part of BOLT 2011. You may get 

involved with BOLT 2011 in many ways: donate to the auctions 

with cash or items, purchase a lottery ticket, attend the event, and/or 

volunteer with one of the committees. You may not be aware of how 

many volunteers work on this exciting event, but there are over 300 

parent volunteers, along with students who sell lottery tickets, bid 

run, valet park and help with clean up as well as singing at our Mass 

before BOLT. There are many areas and levels of participation. If 

you are interested, please contact Deb Schulte at (402) 488-0931 or

3rd Annual Friends Of Pius X Appreciation Reception 

The Most Reverend Fabian W. 

Bruskewitz, who celebrated his 

50th anniversary of his ordination 

this summer, concluded 

the reception with a blessing. 

Approximately 200 benefactors gathered in 

the Commons area at Pius X High School 

on August 12, 2010, to celebrate friendships 

and generous support from the Pius X community, 

who all share a deep commitment 

to Catholic education and lifelong learning. 

The Annual Friends of Pius X Appreciation 

Reception began in 2008 to recognize 

and thank those who support Pius X High 

School with monetary or in-kind gifts totaling 

$750 or more during the fiscal year 

from July 1, 2009, to June 30, 2010. Financial 

support at this level helps to strengthen the current operation’s 

budget and endowments of the school, and enable us to continue our 

tradition of making an affordable, Christ-centered Catholic education 

possible in the Lincoln area. 

The evening began with Fr. Jim Meysenburg welcoming everyone 

and thanking them for their generosity throughout the year. The Distinguished 

Stewardship Award was presented to Monsignor Ivan Vap 

and the Outstanding Alumni Award was given to Tony Messineo. 

Following closing comments and a blessing by the Most Reverend 

Fabian W. Bruskewitz, guests enjoyed tours of the school and a social 

with hors d’oeuvres from Premier Catering. 

Distinguished Stewardship Award 

Presented To Monsignor Ivan Vap 

On behalf of Pius X High School, Fr. James 

Meysenburg and Fr. Ken Borowiak presented the 

Distinguished Stewardship Award to Monsignor 

Ivan Vap at the Friends of Pius X celebration on 

August 12, 2010. 

Nominations were sought earlier this year for 

individuals who have demonstrated exemplary 

service to Pius X High School, been role models 

within the community, are leaders in fulfilling 

our mission to “Restore All Things in Christ” and who share their 

gifts of time, talent and treasure with Pius X. 

According to Fr. Ken Borowiak, who nominated Monsignor Vap, 

“Perhaps no one individual has done more to develop Pius X High 

School into the institution it is today than Monsignor Ivan Vap.” 

Monsignor Vap was born and raised in Hastings, Nebraska. After 

graduating from Hastings St. Cecilia in 1964, he attended Prep Seminary 

in St. Louis, Missouri for three years and then completed his 

final five years at the major seminary in St. Paul, Minnesota. 

He was ordained by Bishop Kucera at St. Cecilia Church on May 27, 

1954, and assigned as assistant in Fairbury , Nebraska. After a year 

and a half in Fairbury, he was assigned to the first faculty at Pius X. 

To prepare for his assignment at Pius X, he attended the University 

of Nebraska to obtain an endorsement in Industrial Arts and began 

teaching when Pius X opened its doors on October 1, 1956. 

In 1963, Monsignor Vap helped in developing Bishop Neumann 

High School in Wahoo, Nebraska. In June of 1964 he was assigned 

as Superintendent of Pius X. In the following years the stadium at 

Aldrich Field and the Learning & Performing Arts Center (L/PAC) 

were built, as well as additional classrooms. 

He left Pius X when he was assigned to Shelby, Nebraska in 1981. 

Afterward, he served in Hastings, Lincoln and Geneva and retired 

in 2004. 

Nominations Sought For The 2011 

Distinguished Stewardship Award 

Nominations are being sought for friends of Pius X High School 

who deserve to be recognized as a distinguished steward of Pius 

X. A good steward is one who receives God’s gifts gratefully, 

chrishes those gifts, shares them with others, and returns a portion 

to the Lord. We are interested in individuals who have demonstrated 

exemplary service to Pius X School, have been a role 

model within their community, are leaders in fulfilling our mission 

to “Restore All Things in Christ”, and share their gifts of time, 

talent & treasure with Pius X. Nominations for the 2011 award 

must be received by Friday, April 1, 2011. The recipient(s) will 

be announced and awarded at our Friends of Pius X Appreciation 

Reception in August 2011. 

If someone you know meets the criteria or if you would like to 

place your name in for nomination, please send a letter including 

your name & contact information, the nominee’s name & contact 

information, and a detailed explanation as to why the nominee 

should receive this award. Please send this information to: The 

Pius X Foundation Office, 6000 A Street, Lincoln, NE, 68510, or

10th anniversary of the Kohl’s Cares philanthropic 

program. The Kohl’s Cares contest asked parents, 

teachers and school supporters to dream big and 

visit the Kohl’s Facebook page to share what their 

school could do with half a million dollars and cast 

their votes for their favorite schools. The Lincolnarea 

community, as well as alumni and friends from 

all over the world, showed a tremendous amount of 

support and ingenuity by rallying together to help 

Pius X High School win. 

The contest took place on Kohl’s Facebook page, 

www.facebook.com/Kohls from July 7 through 

September 3, 2010. The top 20 vote-getting schools 

that met contest criteria and had school officials 

provide information on how the school would use 

the money to support educational programs or initiatives, 

won $500,000 each. From the more than 11 

million votes cast in total during the contest, Pius 

X High School ranked number four, making it one 

of the 20 winning schools that received $500,000! 

They were the only school in Nebraska to place in 

the top 100 and win a half million dollars. 

Pius X will use the funding toward the construction 

of an onsite kitchen to provide a full-fledged 

food service program. Currently, food is prepared 

in the former Clark Jeary building across the Pius 

X parking lot to the east and must be transferred 

on carts several times each day which is laborious, 

time consuming, and can result in several spills. 

The projected cost of the renovations is $925,000. 

Pius X High School received the $500,000 on 

Thursday, October 28, 2010, which means Pius X 

will borrow much less to complete the project. The 

remaining balance of $400,000 will be funded by 

Pius X’s annual fundraiser, BOLT, and should be 

paid off within the next four years. Construction 

of the new onsite kitchen facilities will begin in the 

Spring of 2011 and is anticipated to be completed 

in August of 2011, just in time for the beginning of 

the 2011-12 school year. 

The entire Pius X family is extremely grateful to 

our Heavenly Father and to all those who showed 

support, voted, and prayed for our success in this 

contest. In his thank you letter on behalf of Pius 

X High School, Superintendent Fr. Jim Meysenburg 

said, “We are truly humbled and edified by 

the outpouring of votes, prayers, support, and help 

from far and near. We were so impressed by so 

many people’s willingness to promote us and the 

reciprocal support we received from Our Lady of 

the Presentation School in Lee Summit, Missouri, 

and Lake High School in Millbury, Ohio, as well 

as other schools. Finally, it was a powerful example 

of being part of the mystical body of Christso 

many people doing what they can to build up 

Christ’s kingdom.” 

Thank You Community!

Pius X 2010-11 Theme 

Forgiving Others As We’ve Been Forgiven 

- Photo courtesy of Yearbook - 

Prayer 

Jesus, you showed us from the cross how 

to forgive those who hurt us. Give us the 

grace to restore all things by seeking forgiveness 

from those we’ve hurt and by 

forgiving those who have hurt us. May 

our desire for reconciliation inspire us all 

to true conversion of heart and help bring 

about peace on Earth. 

Summer Pilgrmage To Rwanda 

- Photo courtesy of Julie Schonewise - 

Approximately one year ago, plans were 

made with Msgr. Barr on behalf of Legatus 

(a Catholic business leader’s group) to host 

an all-school assembly with Immaculée Ilibagiza, 

a survivor of the 1994 Rwanda genocide 

that claimed a million lives in only 100 

days. Knowing that Immaculée was coming 

to Pius X, Julie Schonewise and Jane Connealy, 

Social Literature instructors at Pius 

X, applied and won a grant of $10,000 from 

“Fund For Teachers” (a group which funds 

professional development opportunities for 

teachers) to travel to Rwanda to learn more 

about the country in its aftermath of the 1994 

genocide for teaching on this subject in their 

classrooms. 

During the summer of 2010, Jane Connealy, 

Julie Schonewise, Principal Tom Korta and 

Superintendent Fr. Jim Meysenburg were 

blessed with the opportunity to be able to 

join Immaculee Ilibagiza on a pilgrimage to 

Rwanda from July 31st to August 7th. A little 

more than half of the time was spent in 

Kibeho (where Our Lady appeared to several 

people in the 1980’s). The rest of the trip was 

in Kigali where they made a brief visit to Immaculee’s 

home that she rebuilt as a house of 

prayer and healing. The team visited genocide 

memorials, saw the work of missionaries 

at an orphanage and a school for blind and 

spent four days on retreat at the Shrine of Our 

Lady of Kibeho. 

From the visit, all four have brought back to 

the Lincoln Diocese the message that Our 

Lady gave to Kibeho, Rwanda, Africa and the 

whole world that we must convert our hearts 

now and bring peace on earth. 

Immaculée 

Shares Her Story 

On Wednesday, October 20, 

2010, Immaculée Ilibagiza 

shared her inspirational story 

of her experience in the 

1994 Rwanda Holocaust to 

an assembly of over 1,800 

people including 1,062 Pius 

X students; 200 faculty, 

staff, & chaperones; and 

600 Catholic school 7th and 

8th graders from Lincoln. 

In 1994, the Rwandan president 

(Hutu majority tribe) 

was killed which caused a 

mass killing of the minority, 

Tutsi tribe. In 3 months, 

a million Tutsis were killed 

in one of the greatest genocides 

of our world. Immaculée 

hid silently with 7 other 


women in a Hutu pastor’s tiny 3’x 4’ bathroom for 91 

days to avoid the slaughter. 

Immaculée shared her story of being sent into hiding 

by her father with his rosary and not wanting to leave 

her family, but doing so out of obedience. During 

her time hiding in the bathroom, she learned several 

things including forgiveness, the courage to let go, 

the power of love, putting things into perspective, 

being grateful for the smallest things, and the power 

of prayer. While in hiding, Immaculée prayed the 

rosary morning til night, which she estimates was at 

least 27 times a day. As time went on, a conversion 

occurred in her heart and she was able to let go of her 

anger and surrender herself to God, forgiving those 

who had killed her family and friends. She told the 

assembly that with any worry or problem, there is 

always hope, that God is real and listens to our heart, 

and that God loves us and forgives us unceasingly. 

She suggested that if one has a choice between kindness 

or being right, to choose kindness. “If I can 

forgive, anyone can forgive.” 

Pius X spent the entire day engaging in a “Day In The 

Dark” with the hallway lights turned off and inviting 

all to spread the light. Immaculée presented a bundle 

of glow sticks to junior John Clark who was asked 

to begin spreading the light in the Pius X hallways, 

through Lincoln, and throughout the world. Other 

activities at Pius X included a Seven Sorrows rosary 

prayed in French, Spanish and English by the International 

Languages students throughout the day. 

Immaculée is the author of “Left to Tell”, “Our Lady 

Of Kibeho”, “Led By Faith”, and “If Only We Had 

Listened”. Copies of her books are available for 

checkout in the Pius X Media Center. Immaculée 

also established a “Left To Tell Charitable Fund” 

which helps raise money to help orphaned children 

in Rwanda and help all children of Africa build better 

lives. For more information, please visit www. 

Immaculée.com. 

Pius X is grateful to the Lincoln chapter of Legatus 

(a Catholic business-leaders group) for providing 

this opportunity to the entire student body to hear 

Immaculée’s message. Special thanks to Herb Reese 

(Reese Construction) for the replica of the bathroom 

space (3’x 4’) where Immaculée and 7 other women 

hid silently together for 91 days. 

Curriculum Focus 



This spiritual and educational journey will bear 

fruits throughout the 2010-11 school year as 

teachers and administrators in all academic areas 

at Pius X focus attention on issues of social 

justice, genocide, compassion, forgiveness and 

reconciliation: 

• The Art Department made Seven Sorrows 

rosaries for Immaculée to take to Rwanda. 

They also shared them with the Pius X family, 

and showed interested staff and students 

how to make them on their own. 

• Consumer Science students made dresses to 

be donated to the School for the Blind in 

Kibeho, Rwanda. 

• The English Department linked efforts to the 

National Day of Writing, also on October 

20, 2010, when students submitted thoughts 

on genocide, perseverance, and hope to the 

National Gallery of Writing website. They 

read short stories set in or about the Rwandan 

genocide, as well as watched the movie, 

“Hotel Rwanda” to inspire the writing. 

• The Industrial Arts teacher used the dimensions 

of Immaculée’s hiding place to discuss 

U.S. building codes compared to those 

in Rwanda. 

• The International Language Department 

took the opportunity to share each language 

with each other the day that Immaculee 

visited Pius X High School on October 20, 

2010. Every period of the day, each Spanish 

and French class said the Seven Sorrows 

Rosary in English, Spanish, and French. 

The students from each class led the decades. 

The day before the visit each student 

wrote out an intention that was prayed for 

throughout the day during the rosaries. 

• The Math Department applied genocide statistics 

to local populations to grasp the magnitude 

of the loss of 1,000,000 people. 

• The Psychology curriculum helped students 

explore the physical and mental health issues 

surrounding the benefits of forgiveness. 

• The Science Department talked about the 

psychological requirements of the perpetrators 

necessary to act in this way toward 

their own neighbor; related their interactions 

in a confined 3’ x 4’ area to force, 

impulse, and momentum; did line-emission 

spectra observations (light in darkness concept); 

and watched a video on how gorilla’s 

in a reserve were affected by the unrest of 

the country. 

• The Social Studies Department unveiled 

maps and projects developed on Rwanda 

and its history, and also screened Frontline’s 

documentary, “Ghosts of Rwanda.” 

• The Theology Department included class 

sessions on the 7 Sorrows of Mary, Genocide, 

Immaculée’s story, the Rwando genocide, 

the pilgrimage to Kibeho, and a demonstration 

as to what it would be like to be 

confined in the space of a bathroom that Immaculée 

was in for 91 days with 7 others. 

• The Vocal Music Department performed African 

music sung by select choirs. 



New Classes Offered In 2010-11 

Pius X Home & School Association 

Pius Home and School Association Represents Area Parishes 

The Academic Decathlon Girls Team Took 2nd Place in the quiz 

bowl in Seward, Nebraska, in October 2010. Members of the team 

included Gabby Bruckner, Bridget Fitzgerald, Anna Hanzl, Kelsey 

Konecky, Kathryn Kopetzky, and Audra Nabity. Photo courtesy of 

Ann Kotopka. 

In order to accommodate the growing student body and diversified 

needs of Pius X High School, the administration has added new 

classes to the official course listings for the 2010-2011 school year. 

The two new classes are AP Computer Science & Discrete Mathematics, 

along with Academic Decathlon. 

The AP Computer Science and Discrete Mathematics is an introductory 

course in computer science which uses many of the basic 

principals of discrete mathematics in order to develop, adapt, and 

implement computer programs. This course has a prerequisite of 

Algebra II and is recommended for students with a stong interest 

in computers or as an additional choice for seniors wishing to take 

a fourth year of mathematics. Programming curriculum begins on 

graphing calculators, and evolves into situations that utilize the Java 

program. The AP Computer Science exam will be offered in May 

of the school year. 

The other new class at Pius X is the Academic Decathlon which is 

taught by three Pius teachers: Margaret Kaiser-Woodward, Sandi 

Sullivan, and MaryJo Kopf. Academic Decathlon is an accelerated 

and intensive year-long course of study in science, social studies, 

math, English (literature, critical reading, and writing), art, music, 

speech, and economics. A new theme focuses the study each year, 

so a student may take this course more than once. The theme for the 

2010-11 school year is on the Great Depression. The class participates 

in various competitions through the United States Academic 

Decathlon (USAD). Students are encouraged to participate in at 

least one scrimmage the first semester. A select group of twelve 

students will compete in Regional, and if successful, State and National 

Competitions. Students in Academic Decathlon must come 

from three academic levels (A, B, and C or below) as determined 

by selected portions of their GPA, so students of varying ability and 

grade are in class together. Grading standards for this course are 

adjusted for grade and ability. 

PHSA members (L to R): Barb Krenk, Mike Krenk, Andrea Peterson, Pete Peterson, 

John Soukup, Joe LeDuc, Mindy Edwards, Donna Barnes, Michael Barnes, 

Kathy Rentschler, Lori Beals, Doug Beals. Not pictured: Paul Birkel, Judy York, 

Anita Scheuler, Paul Edwards, Ellen Soukup. 

They are officially known as the Pius X Home and School Association 

(PHSA), but unofficially, you might call them the Pius “parish” 

association because each one of the members represents a parish in 

the Lincoln area. The mission of this group is to help facilitate communication 

between the school and parents who send their children 

to Pius X. 

“It’s important that each parish has a liaison between the school and 

the church,” said PHSA president John Soukup. “Our main role is to 

help parents answer any questions they may have, keep the parish up 

to date on things happening at Pius X of importance to parents, and 

let the parish know when one of its students has made an outstanding 

achievement or goal.” Most of that information will be communicated 

through parish bulletins. 

The PHSA meets once a month with Pius X principal Tom Korta to 

be briefed, share thoughts, and provide feedback on various school 

issues. Each member also has a son or daughter at Pius X. PHSA 

members are: 

Michael and Donna Barnes North American Martyrs 

Doug and Lori Beals 

St. Theresa 

Paul and Michelle Birkel St. Peter 

Paul and Mindy Edwards St. Mary 

Mike and Barb Krenk St. Patrick 

Joe LeDuc 

St. Joseph 

Pete and Andrea Peterson Blessed Sacrament 

Kathy Rentschler 

St. Michael’s in Cheney 

Anita Scheuler 

Cathedral of the Risen Christ 

John and Ellen Soukup St. John the Apostle 

Judy York 

Sacred Heart 

“Our group also helps to organize the ‘In Touch with Pius Parents’ 

series,” explained Soukup. “We invite Pius parents to hear from different 

guest speakers who speak on topics of interest to parents as they 

relate to teens.” PHSA members also assist with freshman orientation 

and the Pius X Open House. 

In addition, the PHSA offers a number of volunteer committees that 

all Pius X parents are invited to be involved with: 

Parent/Hospitality and Recruitment Committee 

Alcohol & Safe Homes Committee 

Teacher & Staff Appreciation Committee 

Academic Committee 

Facilities & Grounds Committee 

Public Relations Committee 

Uniform Committee 

Spiritual Life Committee 

Technology Committee 

Contact Steph Jones at smjones42@yahoo.com if you’re interested in 

sharing your expertise with any of these groups. 


Artificial Turf Installed 

On Aldrich Field 

Pius X’s Aldrich Field on Homecoming night, September 17, 2010.

Pius X High School anxiously watched the development of a 

$500,000 project at Aldrich Field this summer. The project was announced 

in Spring of 2010 after an anonymous donor came forward 

and provided a lead challenge gift for the specific purpose of equipping 

Aldrich Field with new artificial turf. With that lead gift and 

supporting gifts of others, the project officially began when many 

Pius X students and volunteers came forward on May 26, 2010, to 

remove the sod from Aldrich Field and transfer it to the Pius X practice 

field. Crews and volunteers worked diligently around the rains 

of the spring and hot weather of the summer to equip the field with 

the new artificial turf. Leading the project was Landscapes Unlimited, 

who was hired for the installation. 

The artificial turf was completed by the second week of August 

2010, just in time for fall sports practices. The first official public 

use of the field was at the Fall Kick-Off on Friday, August 20, 2010, 

at which time Fr. Bernardo, Pius X Chaplain, blessed the new turf 

and the Pius X football team won its first game of the season. 

The artificial turf will provide many benefits including the reduction 

of impact injuries as athletes will play on a safer and more uniform 

surface. Aldrich Field will now be multi-purpose allowing band, 

soccer, football, and track to perform on the new playing surface. 

Maintenance costs will be reduced as watering, mowing, fertilizers, 

and pesticides will no longer be required. The only maintenance requirement 

will be raking the field a few times a year. Furthermore, 

the practice facilities behind the school will be less torn up providing 

opportunities for the soccer teams to practice on-site rather than 

travel off-site for practice. “This project will have a huge impact 

on Pius X,” said Tim Aylward, Athletic Director. “Not only will it 

provide a tremendous venue for our teams, band and students to play 

and practice on, but it will show that we continue to care about our 

students and the quality of the facilities at our school.” 

Pius X High School is very thankful for the lead and supporting gifts 

of this project. “There has been incredible support from the handful 

of individuals involved with this project,” said Michelle Birkel, 

Development Director. “We have many alumni, parents and friends 

who regularly support Lincoln’s only Catholic high school with gifts 

of various sizes. We continue to be pleased and amazed that so many 

people are willing to help. This investment will benefit our students 

and families for decades.” 

Sam Raetz Receives Matt 

Grosserode Memorial Scholarship 

On August 20, 2010, Sam Raetz 

was awarded the Matt Grosserode 

Memorial Scholarship 

for the 2010-2011 school year. 

The scholarship was founded 

in 2005 by John and Joann 

Grosserode in memory of their 

son Matt Grosserode. The 

$500 scholarship is awarded 

each year to a senior football 

player attending Pius X, who 

is faithful to God, loving to - Photo courtesy of Yearbook - 

family and loyal to friends just as Matt was. Pictured (left to right):

Students Named AP Scholars 

The College Board’s Advanced Placement (AP) Program offers 

students the opportunity to take challenging college-level courses 

while still in high school and receive college credit, advanced 

placement, or both for successful performance on the AP exams. 

Students may choose to take the national test in May of each year to 

qualify for credit at colleges and universities throughout the nation. 

Pius X offers seven AP classes including Biology, Calculus, Physics, 

United States History, American Government, English, Literature 

and Statistics. These courses are rigorous and require much of the 

students who take them. The courses are followed by very difficult 

national tests that are scored on a one to five scale, with five being 

the highest. Most colleges accept scores of three or higher and grant 

incoming students between three to five college credits for each AP 

class. College Board, the company that administers the AP Program, 

named students to their honor roll. 

The following students (either current or 2010 graduates) earned AP 

Scholar Awards in recognition of their exceptional achievement on 

AP Exams: 

AP Scholars (received scores of 3 or higher on three or more AP exams): 

Sean Flattery, Rachel Hanigan, Kaitlyn Kudron, and Norma Volkmer. 

AP Scholar with Honor (received an average score of at least 3.25 on all 

AP exams taken and scored 3 or higher on four our more of these exams): 

Madeline Hafner. 

Blood Drives Save Lives 

& Create Scholarship 


The 2010-2011 high school blood drive season is off and running as 

Pius X High School played host for the school’s annual fall blood drive. 

Monday, October 4, 2010, students and staff rolled up their sleeves and 

may have helped as many as 108 patients while raising scholarship funds 

for Pius X. Since partnering with the Nebraska Community Blood Bank 

(NCBB) in 2004, over 900 PXHS donors have provided life-saving 

blood products for patients from across Nebraska and beyond. 

Again this year, all high school blood drives meeting goal are eligible 

for scholarship awards from the NCBB Educational Scholarship Program. 

Created as a way to say thank you for being a part of blood drive 

program, it also helps educate students on the importance of being a 

volunteer blood donor. 

If you’d like to donate blood and support Pius X’s scholarship, please 

specify Pius X High School when donating. For more information about 

NCBB or donating blood, visit www.don8bld.org. 


Foundation News 

“From what we get, we can make a living; what we give, however, makes a life.” ~Arthur Ashe 

Dear Alumni, Parents & Friends, 

This school year marks our 54th year and is a testament 

to all of you and your generous support 

and belief in our great school. I know that my 

husband Paul and I feel very blessed to be a part 

of the tradition here at Pius X and to have our own 

children receive their education here and at St. 

Peter’s Catholic grade school in Lincoln. This is 

also a great time to reflect back over the last year 

to all who have given their time, talent and treasure to Pius. Your sacrifices 

are truly extraordinary and do not go unnoticed. This annual report gives 

us the opportunity to acknowledge and thank everyone for their support 

this year and over the past fifty-four years. 

This school year was another one for the record books! I am confident that 

with the solid support that we have from our local parishes and stakeholders 

and most importantly, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, our school 

has a very bright future. 

Our endowment fund is vital to the operations of our high school. As 

of October 31, 2010, we are happy to report that the balance is now a 

little over $10.2 million. This is important as each year a portion of these 

funds are allocated to the high school and provide an important part of our 

budget. Last year, over $368,000 was transferred to the high school to 

help with teacher salaries, maintenance of the school, financial assistance 

to students and other important needs. For the 2010-2011 school year, 

we will contribute approximately $445,750 to the high school. Our endowment 

is comprised of both equities and fixed funds (cd’s, bonds, etc.). 

Thankfully, the stock market has been gaining value in the last couple of 

months. We pray that this trend continues!

of Directors who administer the endowment fund, which currently 

has a balance of over $10.2 million. The Pius X Foundation ensures 

long-term financial stability for the high school, keeps Catholic education 

affordable in Lincoln and provides scholarships to Pius X 

students. Since its formation, the endowment fund has transferred 

over $4,962,000 million back to Pius X High School. There are 

currently thirteen Pius X Foundation Board of Directors members 

who help manage the affairs and business of the Pius X Foundation. 

Members serve three year terms with the option to renew for another 

three years.

Thanks to the support of many parents, grandparents, alumni, friends and 

local businesses, the Tradition of Faith campaign, which commenced 

in 2006, has been a huge success. As of the end of October, 2010, 

$11,577,840 has been received which is 75% of what has been pledged 

thus far: $15,480,315. Continued payment of your pledges is very much 

needed and appreciated as we still have over one year to go. With your 

help, we have spent $3,345,844 on the new Commons area and school renovations 

(four new classrooms and a renovated library), given $2,087,915 

back to the parishes, transferred $3,878,500 to the endowment fund and 

$1,295,000 to the Diocese to begin retiring the Clark Jeary debt. 

We again thank all of our friends and benefactors for your continued support 

and may God bless you for your sacrifices. 

Best wishes to all of you for a blessed Christmas and New Year!

Arth Endowment 

Exceeds $30,000 

I remember meeting Larry when he 

and his wife, Mary, graciously offered 

to serve as leadership chairpersons 

for the Tradition of Faith campaign 

in 2006. He and Mary had been very 

active in many causes, both at Pius X 

and in the Lincoln diocese, so I was 

already aware of their deep and longtime 

commitment to our school. Over 

the years I learned that not only were 

they dedicated to making sure the Pius X capital campaign was successful, 

but they were both deeply dedicated to the city of Lincoln. 

Larry was greatly respected in the Lincoln community. It is not easy 

to find a cause or a worthwhile project that hasn’t benefited from 

Larry’s, and therefore Mary's, involvement over the years. 

Larry graduated from Pius X in 1961. While at Pius X, he was 

a three sport letterman in football, basketball, and track & field. 

After earning a BA degree in Business in 1965, Larry served over 

two years in the U.S. Navy. He returned to Lincoln in 1968, joined 

Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. (then Bankers Life Nebraska), and 

proceeded to earn a masters degree in 1969 from UNL. Over the 

years, he held various leadership positions within the financial department, 

including CFO. In 1988, he was elected president and 

chief operating officer, a position he held until 1995, when he was 

elected chairman of the board and chief executive officer. After 40 

years with the company, Larry retired in July 2008. 

Larry passed away on August 27, 2008. Knowing how much Pius 

X meant to Larry, Mary and her children, Laura, Susie, and Bill 

established the Lawrence J. Arth Endowment Fund to support the 

Pius X football program. According to Mary, "The football program 

provided fond memories to both Larry & me, and to our children. 

Some of the intangibles of the football program that were important 

to Larry were learning the importance of working together as a 

team, striving to become a better player, the respect of one’s teammates 

and obedience to the coaches and abiding by the rules. The 

camaraderie that binds a team together lasts for a lifetime, and the 

lessons learned are carried over to family and future careers." Mary 

reminisces that Larry & Bill, their son who graduated from Pius 

in 1998, played the same position and were competitive about everything 

from the number of wins to their statistics. Mary was the 

proud cheerleader for both, officially during her years at Pius X and 

unofficially from the stands while watching Bill and his team. 

Thanks to the donations of many generous benefactors, this fund 

has just reached a balance of over $30,000! Funds each year will be 

allocated to purchase additional equipment, uniforms, and any other 

items or make repairs as needed that exceed the cost of the football 

team’s annual budget. 

For more information on establishing an endowed scholarship or 

named fund, please contact the Foundation Office at 402-488-1046. 

Named Scholarships & Endowed Funds: 

Gift Opportunities That Help 

Our School & Students 

Thanks to the generosity of many donors, Pius X will be awarding 

approximately $28,000 in scholarships for the 2010-2011 year. 

Establishing a Named Fund or Scholarship gives individuals the 

opportunity to honor and remember loved ones while actively supporting 

Pius X’s quality, Catholic education. Once a Named Scholarship is 

created, the funds are invested in the Foundation’s Endowment. The 

interest earned is used to help pay a portion of students’ tuition. A 

Named Fund works in the same way, however the interest earned is 

used to help support and run the high school each year. 

Scholarships 

Because the scholarship is endowed, it will last forever and serve as 

a permanent memorial. This means you can financially assist current 

as well as future students for many years to come. As the scholarship 

balance increases, so does the amount of aid students receive. 

Establishing a Scholarship or Named Fund 

There are several ways to set up a Named Fund or Scholarship. A gift 

of cash or stock immediately establishes a fund. Also, a Named Fund or 

Scholarship can be left as a gift in your will or designated as the beneficiary 

of your IRA or pension plan. A life insurance gift is another option. 

It is possible for anyone to make contributions to any of the endowed 

scholarships at any time. This allows scholarship balances to grow 

and provide more financial aid to the students that receive them. 

Donations in any amount are always welcome. If you would like 

information on establishing or donating to a Named Scholarship, 

please call the Pius X Foundation Office at (402) 488-1046.

2009-10 Annual Report 

Pius X Foundation 2009-2010 2009-10 Annual Annual Report Report 

It is our pleasure to present to you the Pius X Foundation 

Annual Report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010. This 

report reflects your continued commitment to Lincoln’s only 

Catholic high school. 

The primary objectives of the Foundation are to generate 

income to: 

◆ Keep our education affordable to all students 

◆ Ensure long-term financial stability 

◆ Provide adequate compensation for faculty and staff 

Independent Auditor’s Report 

September 30, 2010 

We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position 

of Pius X Foundation (a nonprofit organization) as of June 30, 

2010, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the 

year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility 

of the Foundation’s management. Our responsibility is to 

express an opinion on these financial statements based on our 

audit. The prior year summarized comparative information has 

been derived from the Foundation’s 2009 financial statements, 

and, in our report dated September 23, 2009, we expressed an 

unqualified opinion on those financial statements. 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards 

generally accepted in the United States of America. Those 

standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain 

reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are 

free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on 

a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in 

the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the 

accounting principles used and significant estimates made by 

management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement 

presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable 

basis for our opinion. 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present 

fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pius X 

Foundation as of June 30, 2010, and the changes in its net assets 

and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with 

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of 

America.

As part of its 50th anniversary, Pius X High School conducted 

a fundraising campaign that raised approximately $16,000,000 

in pledges. The campaign was designed to raise money to 

expand and update the Pius X High School’s property and to 

provide support to the Foundation and Catholic parishes in 

Lincoln, Nebraska. The Foundation expects to receive a total 

of $6,000,000 over the five years, through 2011, as part of 

this fundraising campaign. As of June 30, 2010, $3,698,865 

has been distributed to the Foundation from this campaign. 

The Foundation has agreed to provide a subsidy approximating 

$445,750 to Pius X High School, for operating expenses and 

scholarships, for the 2010-2011 academic year. This was 

calculated based on the value of investments at December 

31, 2009. The Foundation paid out $369,750 for the 2009- 

2010 academic year.

Pictured left to right: Keith May, Fr. Jim Meysenburg, Tony Messineo,

On behalf of Pius X High School, Monsignor Liam Barr and Keith 

May presented the fourth annual Outstanding Alumni Award to Tony 

Messineo (’59) at the Friends of Pius X celebration on August 12, 

2010. 

“When reviewing nominations for the Outstanding Alumni Award, 

we look for individuals who are leaders in fulfilling our mission to 

“Restore All Things in Christ,” graduated from Pius X at least 10 

years ago, are recognized on a local, state or national level in their 

field, have been awarded for contributions in his/her profession, are 

leading a life of leadership and service, and are outstanding examples 

of Catholic values, virtues and ideals,” said Michelle Birkel, Development 

Director at Pius X. “Tony has been a tireless ambassador 

for Pius X High School and serves as an example of leadership and 

service to his family, friends and the Lincoln community.” 

According to Keith May, who nominated Tony, “Tony’s leadership 

and treatment of his employees and customers is a testament to his 

faith. Tony truly takes his faith to work with him and it is very much 

a part of his day to day efforts.” 

Tony is a 1959 Pius X graduate where he received several awards in 

public speaking, played football and ran track. 

After attending St. Thomas Seminary in Denver for a year and a half, 

he received a bachelor’s degree in business administration from the 

University of Nebraska in 1965. 

In 1971 Tony and his brother Ron purchased a local restaurant in 

Lincoln - Valentino’s. The two, along with their cousin, Mike Alesio, 

who joined them a year later, went on to expand that business and today 

Valentino’s has expanded to 39 restaurant locations in 6 states. 

Throughout the years, Tony has been an ardent support of Pius X 

with his gifts of time, talent and treasure. He served with Monsignor 

Barr as Chair of the initial Pius X Endowment Drive in 1981, and 

they were able to raise $1.1 million in pledges. 

He has also served on several boards and committees throughout 

the community including the Wesleyan Board of Governors, Catholic 

Social Services, Teammates, Nebraska Restaurant Association 

Board, Rotary Board and Lincoln Lancaster County Health Department 

Board. 

His restaurant chain has received numerous awards over the years 

and he has personally been awarded Restaurateur of the Year Award

A Look Into The Past 

“KILL THAT WHITE MAN” is something 

you do not want to hear when you 

are the only white man on a train that was 

stopped by a mob of 600 rioters. Reverend 

Marion Batson S.J. was that man. 

Alumni News 

Homecoming Tailgate Party 

At Pius X High School 

Father Batson, serving at the Patna mission 

in India, was returning to his home mission 

when his train was stopped by the rioters. 

He was dragged out and the mob began tearing off his clothes. Suddenly 

a Mohammedan boy about 12 years old ran to Father Batson, 

threw his arms and legs about his body and began yelling for the mob 

to be quiet. As soon as the mob calmed down, Father Batson raised 

his voice and talked to them. They silently disbanded and went away. 

The railroad tracks had been torn up and communication cut off. 

The young boy took Father Batson to his mission, walking 30 

miles through the worst rainstorm in the country’s history. They 

walked 15 hours, all night and past noon the next day, meeting 

several bands of rioters. When they reached Mokameh, Father 

Batson’s station, the chapel had been damaged and everything 

that could be carried off was stolen. The young native priest left 

in charge, hearing the rioters, rushed to the chapel, consumed the 

Host and hid what sacred vessels he could before the mob arrived. 

The Pius X Homecoming tailgate party that was held Friday, September 

17, 2010, was again a huge success!!! Thank you to all the parents, 

students, and alumni who helped to make this evening so much fun! 

The tabernacle door was smashed in by a man who had been 

helped by Father Batson. Soon this Indian found his whole arm 

and part of his side paralyzed. Groaning and screaming, he called 

for Father Batson to come and save him. The natives became 

frightened and began to bring back some of the stolen articles. 

Later, Father met a wealthy Mr. Martin, President of an American 

steel works, in Calcutta, who became interested in the missions 

and told Father Batson to repair all his missions and to 

send him the bill. He also insisted that Father Batson go to Calcutta 

to plan the building of a shrine to our Blessed Mother of 

Divine Grace. Mr. Martin engaged one of his best architects 

to draw up the plans and the chapel was begun. Father Batson 

writes that it is far more beautiful than his fondest dreams. 

In 1959, after serving at the Patna mission in India since 1926, Father 

Batson returned to the United States. He was in Chicago collecting 

money for a new high school in New Delhi when he died in May of 1960. 

Father Batson’s parents also gave us another religious vocation. Father’s 

sister, Naomi, Cathedral High School class of 1924, was a cloistered 

nun at the Carmelite convent. Father’s brother, Avery, was a 

1922 CHS alum and his younger sister, Nada, was a 1929 CHS alum. 

(Information for this article came from a letter Father wrote 

to his Mother, the Jesuit records at Creighton in Omaha, St. 

Marys Kansas Star 1928 and a Christmas card written in December 

1959 to my aunt, Jessie Cripe, a CHS 1920 alum.)

this year was a cotton candy machine and other fun games. The adults 

had fun visiting and catching up with friends and classmates, eating 

great food, and touring the school. We even had the class of 1960 join 

us for their reunion as well as a group of 1970 Class B football champs! 

Again, a big thank you goes out to all of our volunteers and those 

who came to enjoy all the fun festivities. This event would not 

have been nearly as successful if it wasn’t for your commitment 

of time and dedication to Pius X High School. We would also like

donations: Ayars & Ayars, Kathi Woody, Pepsi Co., Frito Lay,

to share with one another the journey
