Shelby Kestler ’12 Shines in Forensics Finals Congratulations to Shelby Kestler for making it to the quarter finals at the National Catholic Forensics League Finals that were held at the Hilton in Downtown Baltimore on May 26th and 27th. Shelby ranked 18th out of 250 competitors in Original Oratory. 6 The Catholic High School of Baltimore Over 2,100 students from all over the nation competed in ten different events at the finals. The competitors were housed at Towson University, Loyola Blakefield, Baltimore City College High School, Poly High School, and Catonsville High School. “I knew that I had someone special when Shelby began doing Forensics as a freshman,” said Mr. Howard Scott, Forensics Coach. “I am so proud to see her progress into such a poised and accomplished speaker. She has let her light shine brightly for Catholic High.” “Shelby is a young woman of great talent, confidence, and poise,” said Dr. Barbara D. Nazelrod ’68, President. “She has exemplified Catholic High’s missions to empower young women by their education. This accomplishment brings great honor to her family and school.” “It was a humbling experience to rank as high as I did at nationals,” said Shelby Kestler ’12. “Seeing that I had made it to the quarter finals was very surprising, and I will never forget hearing other students from all over the U.S. clap for me when it was my turn to receive my trophy.” Shelby is now majoring in political science at Catholic University.
Ellie Gonzalez Competes Internationally Elizabeth “Ellie” Gonzalez ’14 has certainly made a name for herself as an athlete with Catholic High, the IAAM, and now, internationally. She was one of 14 girls and 14 boys who were selected to form the U.S. contingent that competed in the National Scholastic Sports Foundation, Inc.’s (NSSF) Caribbean Scholastic Invitational (CSI) in Carolina, Puerto Rico on June 1-2. This was the 7th CSI, which was created to expose young American high school athletes to international competition. The team selection is based on many factors, the most important factor being the athlete’s potential to represent his/her country in the near future. The team competed against other Island countries. The athletes chosen for the U.S. contingent also competed at the New Balance Outdoor Nationals in Greensboro, NC on June 12-14. “When I received the phone call about Ellie’s invitation to the NSSF’s CSI, I was immediately proud and excited,” said Mrs. Kari McBride, Athletic Director. “As I shared the information with her family, I could see the excitement in Ellie, too. Once she accepted the invitation, I could not have been happier for her. What an amazing opportunity for her to showcase her talents to the world! We are very lucky to have such a hard-working, dedicated athlete, and I cannot wait to see how she wows the world.” “Ellie is a stellar athlete and scholar. I am extremely proud that she is representing The Catholic High School of Baltimore in an international arena as an elite runner,” said Dr. Barbara D. Nazelrod ’68, President. The NSSF was founded in 1990 and strives to support the development of junior age high school athletes by providing travel grants to eligible high school athletes for major U.S. invitational meets, USATF Junior championships (crosscountry and track and field) and to the three national meets hosted by the Foundation each year: The New Balance Indoor Nationals, the New Balance Nationals, and the Great American Cross-Country Festival. Catholic High Announces Tuition Guarantee The Catholic High School of Baltimore proudly announces the implementation of an unprecedented tuition model that will provide families a consistent tuition fee throughout their daughters’ tenure. In response to the current economic challenges faced by families today, the Catholic High Board of Trustees recently unanimously approved a Tuition Guarantee model for current and future students. This model is one of the first of its kind in the country providing a certainty for families in planning their daughters’ annual tuition without the expectations of rising cost. The program goes into effect this school year for all students. “Although families have come to expect annual tuition fluctuations from private educational institutions, we are sensitive to the fact that household budgets are being designed around the current economic climate,” said Catholic High President Dr. Barbara D. Nazelrod. “We analyzed our present and future resources and felt confident in creating this unique offer to demonstrate our compassion for the investment that families are making toward their daughters’ educational future.” The Highlighter Summer 2012 7
