<strong>Father</strong> <strong>Lopez</strong><br />

Catholic <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />

Vision Statement<br />

<strong>Father</strong> <strong>Lopez</strong> Catholic<br />

<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> is a Christ-<br />

centered community of<br />

learners. We believe that<br />

spiritual formation in<br />

the Catholic tradition<br />

and academic rigor<br />

creates a positive culture<br />

where all students are<br />

free to discover their<br />

human potential<br />

through scholarly<br />

pursuits, athletics, and<br />

service leadership.<br />

Dear Lord,<br />

we ask that you bless<br />

the community of<br />

<strong>Father</strong> <strong>Lopez</strong> Catholic<br />

<strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>.<br />

Help us to uphold the<br />

virtues instilled here in<br />

your name, that we<br />

may grow in knowledge<br />

and faith, so that we<br />

may better serve you in<br />

all that we do.<br />

We ask this through<br />

Christ our Lord.<br />

Amen<br />

ARE YOU CURRENT WITH YOUR <strong>2011</strong>-2012 TUITION?<br />

<strong>September</strong> 21, <strong>2011</strong><br />

Our thanks to all our families for their timely payments on their <strong>2011</strong>-2012 tuition – we appreciate your<br />

good stewardship. If you need to check your payment or tuition account balance, you may access your<br />

RenWeb account statement by logging on to RenWeb’s <strong>Parent</strong>s Web (see instructions below). If you do<br />

not have internet access, please call us and we will send you a paper statement.<br />

If you are using the installment payment service by Smart Tuition, you may verify your account and payment<br />

information by going to www.smartuition.com or calling 1-888-868-8828. If you have not enrolled<br />

for the service yet, you may still do so by contacting Smart Tuition or you may print an enrollment form<br />

by going to the school’s website and selecting “Registration Packets for <strong>2011</strong>-2012” and following the<br />

instructions under Step 2B. You must then send the enrollment to the school to the attention of Mrs.<br />

Carmen Rivera.<br />

Here’s an important note about how electronic bill pay services work with Smart Tuition (and many<br />

vendors). If you use a bill pay service (usually through your bank or home bookkeeping software such as<br />

Quicken), please realize that the bill pay service is issuing a paper check and mailing it to the payee. It is<br />

not an electronic funds transfer. You will need to allow time for processing and mailing. Please check<br />

that the payment date you select on the bill pay service is far enough in advance of the Smart Tuition<br />

due date to allow for this. This will help you avoid any late fees imposed by Smart Tuition. The payment<br />

receipt by Smart Tuition is determined by when they physically receive your payment, not when your<br />

bank subtracts the funds from your bank account. If you have any questions about this, you should contact<br />

Smart Tuition at the contact information listed above.<br />

Here’s how to access your account via <strong>Parent</strong>'s Web access. Go to the school's website (www.fatherlopez.org)<br />

by selecting the Quick Links "Ren Web Log In." You need to have a registered email with the school. If<br />

you included your email on the registration documents, then you'll be all set. If you did not, please send<br />

the correct information to Mr. Mike Everett at meverett@fatherlopez.org.<br />

Should you need to contact us at the school, here is the contact information for Mrs. Rivera and Mrs.<br />

Lloyd.<br />

� Mrs. Carmen Rivera: (386) 255-6556, ext. 325; crivera@fatherlopez.org<br />

� Mrs. Karen Lloyd: (386) 255-6556, ext. 306; klloyd@fatherlopez.org<br />

far end of the parking lot row and park in that general area (near the small walk bridge which crosses the ditch, just<br />

park anywhere nearby) —> Go to the sidewalk and cross the small walking bridge over the drainage ditch. —><br />

Follow sidewalk along the building (pool being on the right side) and turn left when wall ends on left side. —> The<br />

Monica MacIntyre mmacintyre@fatherlopez.org<br />

It has been another busy week for the families here at <strong>Father</strong> <strong>Lopez</strong>. I would like to thank Coach Sue<br />

O’Malley for giving me the names of her wonderful parents who have donated on behalf of the cross<br />

country teams. I have also heard from a couple swim team parents who have let me know about their<br />

volunteer time. The football team parents have been busy feeding our boys before and after every game,<br />

not just meals, but also healthy snacks. Thank you to our faithful football parents, Ann Spilman, JoAnn<br />

Peters, Michelle Waddell, Carol Hogan, Ronna Haigh, Ginny and John McFarland and Cathy Mowen. I<br />

also want to thank the Larsen family, Tracie and Jarrod Rathbun and Audrey Pingshaw for their help<br />

during the volleyball games on Thursday night, as well as Laura Bader for her front desk assistance. One<br />

last note, families who participate in many of the fundraisers or make donations to their child’s class,<br />

club or team qualify for service hour credit (one hour of service per $20).<br />

There will be a Town Hall Meeting on Tuesday, <strong>September</strong> 27 th at 6:00 p.m. in the France Family Multi-<br />

Purpose Building. This is an opportunity for parents and family members to hear about any school updates<br />

and to be a part of an information session with the administration team.<br />

Thank you for everything you do!<br />

Upcoming volunteer opportunities include but are not limited to:<br />

Town Hall Meeting – Tuesday, <strong>September</strong> 27 th at 6:00 p.m.<br />

Monica MacIntyre mmacintyre@fatherlopez.org<br />

I am so pleased to see our community honor our alumni. So far the Booster Club golf committee has<br />

received four golf hole sponsorships in memory of our schoolmates who have passed away. Michael<br />

Crotty (’86), Jerry Coble (’82), Scott Groeschner (’86) and lost loved ones from the class of 1960 have<br />

golf hole sponsorships. Golf hole sponsorships are not just for memorials, but also a great way to advertise<br />

a business, team or club. And that is not the only way to memorialize lost alumni, loved ones or<br />

friends of our school. We have the brick pavers that can be placed around the flag poles at the stadium,<br />

naming opportunities around the school and scholarships that can assist our students.<br />

I have to recognize Coach Sue O’Malley and the cross country teams. They were the first to purchase a<br />

golf sponsorship on behalf of Scott Groeschner. Scott was a four year cross country runner and team<br />

captain when he was a student here in the 1980’s. After graduating from <strong>Father</strong> <strong>Lopez</strong>, he went on to<br />

Notre Dame and then into the Navy. He was a part of the SEAL Team 2 and SEAL team 8 until 2000<br />

when he was assigned to the U.S. Sixth Fleet in Gaeta, Italy. He was tragically killed off duty while cycling<br />

in the Ukraine on November 12, 2004. Thank you Coach Sue and Green Wave runners for your<br />

honor and support!<br />

If you have any alumni updates please share them with Monica MacIntyre, Director of Alumni, <strong>Parent</strong><br />

and Volunteer Relations at mmacintyre@fatherlopez.org.<br />

The votes have been counted and the results are in for the Class of 2015 election! Congratulations to our<br />

newest Student Government Association officers:<br />

President: Andy Ufheil Vice President: Doug Abate<br />

Secretary: Emma Albrecht Treasurer: Kevin Scheiber<br />

Green Wave Nation,<br />

Dr. Jose Fernandez<br />

jfernandez@fatherlopez.org<br />

Our desire to be the best high school in the state<br />

of Florida begins with you and your support and<br />

the athletic department wants to thank all of our<br />

current sponsors for their backing and assistance.<br />

The response we have received thus far has been<br />

fantastic! Our goal for the year is to raise $200,000<br />

and because of you we are one quarter of the way<br />

there. However, we still have a long way to go.<br />

The athletic department wants to remind you that<br />

we still have numerous opportunities for sponsors<br />

to become involved, including home games, programs,<br />

and upcoming tournaments. Remember<br />

that no gift is too small and we will work with you<br />

to create a sponsorship tailor made for your<br />

needs.<br />

If you have any questions do not hesitate to call<br />

Coach Fernandez (ext. 308) or Coach Berryhill at<br />

(386) 255-6556. The students, coaches, and staff<br />

again thank you for your support and hope to see<br />

you at the games!<br />

Coach O’Malley has named Fiona Whitfield and<br />

Tiffany Larsen as the Girls Cross Country Athletes<br />

occasion at this week’s meets, showed leadership<br />

mornings to run hills at 5:00 am at ERAU) and have<br />

considered their team mates before themselves.<br />

Well done, Fiona and Tiffany!<br />

Get rid of the love bugs and give your love to our<br />

Cross Country athletes by donating to have your car<br />

washed! Please help spread the word<br />

and stop by from 10-1 on Saturday<br />

to 6-1 on the season. The Lady Waves will be back at home for<br />

matches on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Go, Green Wave!<br />

Male Athlete of the Week<br />

Tony Ludovico, Football<br />

The Varsity Football team defeated St. Joseph’s Academy Fri-<br />

day night <strong>23</strong>-14. The Green Wave was led by Tony Ludovico<br />

who carried the ball 7 times for 146 yards and two touch-<br />

downs. Justin Bryant scored the other touchdown on a 3-yard<br />

run set up by a 62-yard interception return by Joe<br />

Boden. Tommy Roache kicked a 32-yard field goal to round<br />

out the scoring.<br />

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.<br />

You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You’re<br />

on your own and you know what you know. You are the<br />

guy who will decide where to go.<br />

- Dr. Seuss


INTERNATIONAL<br />

STUDENT<br />

PROGRAM<br />

<strong>Lopez</strong> is looking for<br />

safe, supportive and<br />

culturally sensitive<br />

homes to host<br />

international students<br />

through the school<br />

year.<br />

We are also looking for<br />

families who would be<br />

willing to host an<br />

exchange student from<br />

France for the month of<br />

February! Our hope is<br />

that families with<br />

students who are<br />

currently enrolled in<br />

French here might want<br />

to host a French<br />

student in February and<br />

then their child would<br />

go over to France for a<br />

month during the<br />

summer to study. It<br />

would truly be a cultural<br />

exchange.<br />

Get<br />

Organized!<br />

WHAT ARE THE<br />

BENEFITS OF HOSTING?<br />

Make a difference in the life of a<br />

young person.<br />

Enrich the lives of your family.<br />

Increase cultural awareness in your<br />

community.<br />

Support diversity and cross-cultural<br />

awareness at home.<br />

Teach a student about American values.<br />

Experience the joy of having a new<br />

family member to love.<br />

Share a new language and culture.<br />

Build a life-long friendship.<br />

Practice hospitality and generosity in<br />

your own home.<br />

Grow closer as a family.<br />

God Bless our Troops!<br />

This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. - Elmer Davis


The Volusia Honor Air flight will be taking 100 WWII veterans to Washington DC Saturday,<br />

9/24. This is the 8 th flight from the local area, and is designed to honor the WWII vets for<br />

their service, by taking them to DC to visit the WWII monument, Arlington Cemetery, and<br />

other sites. Of the 16,000,000 Americans that served during WWII, only 3 million are still<br />

alive and they are dying at 1200-1500 per day. The average age of the veterans going on<br />

the trip to DC is 90 years old. This special honor flight concept is occurring all over the<br />

USA, and is funded by donors, so the veterans do not pay for the trip. We had Mrs. Jerry<br />

King’s class write letters to the vets, thanking them for their service. These letters will be<br />

given to the veterans on the flight back to Daytona, as part of the old fashion “mail call”<br />

which is a very emotional time for the vets.<br />

If anyone from the <strong>Lopez</strong> community desires to be part of the “welcome” home celebration<br />

on Saturday evening, the US Airways chartered flight will arrive at the Daytona airport<br />

between 8-8:30 pm. The airport staff and the local honor air flight volunteers decorate<br />

and set up the terminal to welcome the group back after a very long day in DC. This is a<br />

great opportunity to honor local hero’s from the greatest generation. Hope to see you there!<br />
