touchstones: president’s message

“You changed my life .” Has anyone expressed such feelings to you? What an amazing gift, from both perspectives – the giver and receiver .

We are blessed at Rockhurst High School to hear sincere expressions of gratitude from hundreds of students and parents every year about the benefits of a Catholic Jesuit college preparatory education – changing lives . They focus on our wonderful faculty, and our extraordinary donors, who make Rockhurst High School a vibrant center for sound learning, new discovery, and achievement .

It is with great pleasure that we present our annual President’s Report to you . This is a telling illustration of our accomplishments together, both givers and receivers . With genuine Ignatian spirit, we build on the theme of offering “Touchstones” about our proud institutional past and hopeful future . Everything we do at The Rock is geared to change the lives, for the good, of the young men entrusted to our care for the greater glory and honor of God .

The past year has shown many transitional changes and a time of great

forward movement by our school . The administration and faculty continue

to engage in a comprehensive curriculum review to distinguish further Rockhurst

High School in a competitive educational market . In addition, the Board of

Trustees endorsed concepts of a Master Site Plan, which are geared to ensure

that the facilities on the Greenlease Memorial support our mission .

In Fiscal Year 2013-14, Rockhurst High School focused on delivering value for

the best faith-based instruction possible to our students in a rapidly shifting

educational landscape . Technology and innovative teaching methods inspire

our faculty and students to greater levels of achievement on a daily basis .

As far as “impact statements” go, our donors’ fundamental economic support

made it possible for us to:

• Fully implement a one-to-one laptop computer program with iPad’s for each

student and faculty member, effectively motivating more engaged learners,

establishing better technology skills, and creating cost efficiencies,

especially regarding textbooks and other educational materials .

• Increase the tuition assistance budget from $1 .9 million to $2 .1 million to

make a Rockhurst High School experience more affordable to families .

• Expand the Hurtado Scholars Program to assist boys from the urban core

who have great potential, but for whom a Catholic Jesuit college preparatory

education may be unattainable .

• Widen the scope of the Total Ignatian Experience (TIE) with service trips to

impoverished areas across the United States and Latin American countries

for students and adults built on the four pillars of service, community,

simplicity, and prayer .

• Invest $2 million in capital improvements, including the new Dining

Commons, environmental systems upgrades, technological enhancements,

and emergency systems improvements, to ensure every member of our

school community have quality conditions to safely learn .

In this time of massive change for our world, Rockhurst High School has

redoubled its efforts to educate “men for others” with the character and

resources they need to meet the challenges of today, and tomorrow, as

productive leaders in society .

Your devotion changes lives at Rockhurst High School . Every day, we work

hard to reinforce that our mission is an asset to the Kansas City community

and world, as a form of heartfelt appreciation for the trust alumni, parents, and

friends place in us as “Jesuit Partners .”

Thank you for your generosity . You remain in my daily prayers .

Gratefully yours in Christ,

Rev . Terrence A . Baum, SJ

President

“Catholic educational institutions offer to all an approach to education that has

as its aim the full development of the person, which responds to the right of every

person to access knowledge.”— Pope Francis —

dear friends,Every young man deserves a Rockhurst High School experience who wants one .

When I came to Rockhurst High School as a student in 1980, I was continually

impressed and touched by the unconditional commitment of the administration

and faculty and level of care they offered for each student, including me . They

devoted themselves to improve the formation of everyone each day – it was

clearly a vocation for each of them .

That aspect of an educator has never been more true than today with the men

and women who serve at Rockhurst High School . Jesuit schools call it “cura

personalis” or “care for the individual person .” It makes our schools and our

people different; it makes them special .

My role as Chairman is to lead the Board of Trustees and ensure Rockhurst High

School’s mission grows stronger and that it truly remains “special .” We work

closely with Fr . Baum and his management team to be sure they have the resources

to deliver a top quality Catholic Jesuit college preparatory education, at an affordable

rate, for families in the greater Kansas City metropolitan area .

As Jesuit Partners, the Board is committed to the advancement of Rockhurst

High School’s exceptional tradition . We want to honor the alumni and parents

who have made our school great . Just as important is our commitment to help

hardworking families, who want to become a part of our school community, to

make the dream of being a member of The Rock family a reality .

Our Board is heavily invested in a process

of strategically building Rockhurst High

School’s spiritual, curricular, and co-

curricular programs, with facilities that

support those noble ambitions . We

know the students at Rockhurst High

School will positively change the world

and deserve every opportunity to be their

best, personally and collectively .

Be assured of our Board’s pursuit to maintain the highest standards of governance

and fiscal integrity . In addition, our support of Fr . Baum’s team and the superb

faculty at Rockhurst High School is rock solid . Their willingness to devote themselves

to the long-term well-being of each student’s pursuit of lifetime learning speaks

well of both our educational efforts and the empowering nature of our mission .

Let me thank you for your on-going kindness toward Rockhurst High School in

every way . You make Rockhurst High School a very special place .

Yours Sincerely,

Allen K . Roberson, CPA ’84

Chairman, Board of Trustees

master site plan endorsed by Board of Trustees

A new Master Site Plan was endorsed by the Rockhurst High School Board of

Trustees for the Greenlease Memorial campus at a special meeting on June 26,

2014 . The Master Site Plan is designed to closely link physical facilities for the

institution, including future construction and renovation, to goals outlined in the

Board’s on-going strategic initiatives for the school .

The Master Site Plan represents a fresh phase of institutional development following

the completion of the school’s Millennium Master Plan objectives, which was

adopted by the Board in 1996 . The final component of that strategic initiative was

completed with a series of campus enhancements, which were finished over

18-years time, when the Dining Commons was constructed in 2013 .

The Master Site Plan is meant to provide a flexible framework for growth when

considering enhancements to campus design and planning . It is based on sustained

enrollment projections that anticipate more than 1,000 students to be studying at

Rockhurst High School, along with a wide array of curricular and co-curricular

program considerations that are expected during the next ten years .

The plan was approved after a year-long dialogue among sub-committees of the

Board and was drafted by the architectural firm of GouldEvans in Kansas City,

Missouri . GouldEvans collected input about Rockhurst High School’s strategic

direction from alumni, parents, and friends at a Town Hall Meeting on February 27,

2014 . The school administration and department heads also offered advice about

critical advancements in the field of college preparatory education for the plan .

During the process, several options for land use and facility improvement

were examined . Feedback stressed the importance of a strong academic

core curriculum, spiritual formation, and deliberate progress in the disciplines

of science and technology . Affordability of a Catholic Jesuit education for

families was stressed as a main priority by participants in the analysis .

Rev . Terrence A . Baum, SJ, President of Rockhurst High School, emphasized in

presenting the plan to the Board that its elements must be “an authentic living

resource to ensure the school’s environment supports its mission .”

Highlights of the plan, which attempts to balance the importance of forming the

“whole person” within the Ignatian ideals, include:

• Construction of an Academic Learning Commons with flexible instructional

environments for collaborative and technology-rich space . These areas

will enable students and teachers to work together to explore new ideas,

discuss issues, and solve problems . Such facilities in academic buildings

push new learning models at the nation’s top schools .

• Expansion of the Rose Theatre backstage to enhance the artist experience

and provide more room for performing arts .

• Phased development of the main building’s southside, particularly the

Xavier Hall (former Jesuit Residence) site, to establish a central, state-of-

the-art science and technology center .

• Improvements to the Lower Campus, including replacement of the visitor’s

stands on the southside of Dasta Memorial Stadium; expansion of the

main press box; creation of storage space; and construction of a new

Alumni and Student Life Center for expanded classroom and retreat

areas, locker-room facilities, the Sports Hall of Fame, and space

for goodwill hospitality events .

• Program development for Science, Technology, Engineering and

Mathematics curriculum, which will be expanded to include

progressive planning and implementation of a thoughtful,

deliberate process to enhance in-depth STEM programs,

such as robotics and coding instruction .

The answer to this question has been written over and over again, in countless books and periodicals – Jesuit schools meet a need .

In our rapidly changing world, families have always wanted to give their children the best opportunities possible to succeed in life . They understand that young people need to have skill sets to manage a fast-paced, quick-thinking world that will face them . Families also respect the fundamental principles of the Graduate at Graduation profile that guides Jesuit schools to form young men and women who are open to growth, intellectually competent, religious, loving, and committed to doing justice .

Dating back to when the first schools were established by the Society of Jesus hundreds of years ago, there were two distinct educational platforms with clear reasoning: 1] strict preparation for a profession, perhaps the law, clergy, or teaching by studying the sciences, mathematics, logic, philosophy, and theology; 2] humanistic schooling, which was curriculum based on Greek and Latin poetry, drama, oratory, and history, with the intent to shape thoughtful, caring individuals and future leaders . The Jesuits skillfully combined these two ideals, while stressing character and spiritual formation as part of their mission statements .

Catholic Jesuit college preparatory apostolates like Rockhurst High School have devoted personnel, both religious and the laity, who have standards of excellence that they aspire for in themselves and work to deliberately develop as “touchstones” in their students:

• Self-knowledge and discipline; • Consideration and reflection on life experiences; • Faith and trust in God; • Admiration for understanding, reason, discovering truth, and intellect; • Discernment for what is right; • Devotion to using God’s gifts to care for other people; • Common sense problem solving; • Bold determination; and, • Finding God in all things .

These qualities came from a unique spirituality that the early Jesuits learned from our founder, St . Ignatius of Loyola . Jesuits define spirituality as

“a pathway to God .” St . Ignatius’ discovery came from reflection upon his own life experiences . His spirit and methodology motivates the generations of Jesuits and lay people who came after him, who hoped, and continue to aspire, to inspire students in the same Ignatian vision .

The Rockhurst High School community strives to achieve a threefold purpose guided by the Ignatian vision, to:

1] provide an environment that assists young men in understanding themselves, Christ, and the world around them;

2] develop in our students a concern, not for personal gain, but for the mission of Jesus Christ;

3] develop educated Christian leaders and graduate young men who demonstrate authentic Christian living in our contemporary society .

Global events continue to dramatically change the context of Jesuit educational ministries . New pressure points seem to emerge on a daily basis, where peoples, religions, and cultures intermingle, but not always happily . Jesuit schools, like Rockhurst High School, are the great equalizers . They promote Christ-like ideals – for justice, authentic communication, and an inclusive sense of unity for humanity .

The optimistic view of how the world can be by Jesuits, and their Jesuit Partners in education, is an important counter-balance to a stark outlook that is all-too-often a common-place way of thinking in our struggling, often secular-leaning society .

why are Jesuit schools so important to the world?

Mr . Jack G . Brannan ’52, loved his mother . She was the person who made his Rockhurst High School education possible . In Mr . Brannan’s eyes, Mrs . Alma G . Brannan could make anything possible .

Mr . Brannan passed away on May 3, 2014 . A long-time member of the Rockhurst High School Ignatian Heritage Society, the bulk of his estate, which is valued at over $1 million, will be devoted to the endowment fund which bears his mother’s name at the school, as well as key operational projects to enhance the curricular and co-curricular experiences of students . Mr . Brannan was 78 years old .

“Jack was a very special man,” said Rev . Terrence A . Baum, SJ, President of Rockhurst High School . “His love for his mother, and Rockhurst High School, was extraordinary . These types of Ultimate Gifts are rare . Jack always said his hope was the donations he made in memory of his mother would inspire students who display solid academic achievement and dedication to take full advantage of the lessons they have learned at The Rock . We will honor Jack and his mother by making sure these funds are a beautiful tribute to their devotion to Catholic Jesuit education .” Fr . Baum made regular visits to Mr . Brannan’s bedside during the last few weeks of his life .

Mrs . Brannan was a faithful Jesuit Partner for Rockhurst High School . She managed the school’s financial record-keeping when the school moved to the Greenlease Memorial campus in 1962 . She died on March 11, 1990, at the age of 84 years old .

The Brannan Scholarship Fund was established in 1981 by Mr . Brannan as a tribute to Mrs . Brannan . He had steadily been building the fund with annual gifts toward the principal balance until the time of his death . Many young men have

received tuition assistance grants over the past three decades because of his generosity . This year alone 40% of the Rockhurst High School student

body receives some sort of financial aid .

Mr . Brannan credited his mother with the work ethic he learned to become a renowned journalist .

Mr . Brannan’s career in journalism spanned four decades from the 1950s through the 1980s and ranged across the United States and Latin America .

When he was elected to the Journalism Hall of Fame in 1999, he was cited for having “achieved excellence in nearly all facets of journalism, from foreign to domestic and his reputation as `one helluva newsman’ continues .” For almost 20 years, Mr . Brannan was a reporter, sports writer, foreign correspondent, editor and management executive with the United Press International news agency . Throughout his career, he served UPI in Kansas City, Los Angeles, New York, Oklahoma City, Washington, DC, as well as Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Caracas (Venezuela) .

Some of the many highlights of Mr . Brannan’s career include being the UPI White House and State Department correspondent, specializing in foreign policy during the first year of President Lyndon B . Johnson’s administration . He also was the New York Stock Exchange manager of its news bureau and media communications department .

Mr . Brannan was named as “Distinguished Alumnus” of Missouri Southern State University in 1980 .

The Ignatian Heritage Society includes benefactors who have provided for Rockhurst High School in a will, bequest, or estate gift . Estate gifts, such as Mr . Brannan’s, are imperative for keeping Rockhurst High School’s mission strong and affordable for families .

The Mass of the Holy Spirit has a wonderful history . During the opening week of school in the fall, tens-of-thousands of students at institutions from across the globe who are sponsored by the Society of Jesus celebrate this special Mass . The unique offering by all member schools conveys a tremendous sense of honor for a shared Ignatian tradition; commitment to achievement; and recognition that the Holy Spirit dwells among them as a vital part of Catholic Jesuit education .

The First Principle and Foundation (St . Ignatius of Loyola, as paraphrased by Rev . David L . Fleming, SJ)

St. Ignatius begins his Spiritual Exercises with The First Principle and Foundation. While not typically thought of as a prayer, it still contains much that is worth reflecting on.

The Goal of our life is to live with God forever .God, who loves us, gave us life .Our own response of love allows God’s lifeto flow into us without limit .

All the things in this world are gifts from God,presented to us so that we can know God more easilyand make a return of love more readily .As a result, we appreciate and use all these gifts of Godinsofar as they help us to develop as loving persons .But if any of these gifts become the center of our lives,they displace Godand so hinder our growth toward our goal .

In everyday life, then, we must hold ourselves in balancebefore all of these created gifts insofar as we have a choiceand are not bound by some obligation .We should not fix our desires on health or sickness,wealth or poverty, success or failure, a long life or a short one .For everything has the potential of calling forth in usa deeper response to our life in God .

Our only desire and our one choice should be this:I want and I choose what better leadsto God’s deepening his life in me .

Jesuit institutions like Rockhurst High School outline a “Profile of the Graduate at Graduation,” which involves every aspect of the formation experience - religious, social, psychological, and academic. This blueprint represents the essential characteristics of our ideal graduate and what is needed to be “men for others.”

The five key elements for students by graduation include:

OPEN TO GROWTHEmotionally, intellectually, physically, socially, religiously to a level that reflects some intentional responsibility for one’s own growth.

INTELLECTUALLY COMPETENTExhibits a mastery of academic requirements for advanced forms of education.

RELIGIOUSHas basic knowledge of the major doctrines and prac-tices of the Catholic Church, having examined his own religious feelings and beliefs with a view to choosing a

fundamental orientation toward God and establishing a relationship with a religious tradition and/or community.

LOVINGOn the way to establishing his own identity on the threshold of being able to move beyond self–interest or self–centeredness in relationships.

COMMITTED TO DOING JUSTICEAchieves considerable knowledge of the many needs of local and wider communities in preparation for the day when he becomes a leader in such places.

Rockhurst High School students are blessed with many talents and opportunities . These are gifts from God, and each student is asked to share them through service throughout their lives . This group of young men, accompanied by faculty members, including Mr . Gregory M . Harkness ‘81, Principal, and Mr . David G . Alvey, Assistant Principal of Faculty Formation, traveled to Tijuana , Mexico, as part of the “Total Ignatian Experience,” to re-build less fortunate communities in the area . The Harvest Food Drive, Senior Service Projects, and Mission Week activities, are only a fraction of the community service efforts in Kansas City that symbolizes a school-wide spirit of giving as “men and women for others .”

giving to Rockhurst

There are several ways to give to Rockhurst High School, providing economic strength to the institution and donor satisfaction with an investment in the quality of Catholic Jesuit education in Kansas City.

Undesignated GiftsAnnual Appeal (the Annual Fund)

In September, Rockhurst High School launches its

campaign to support the Annual Fund, which provides

tuition assistance for families and fortifies operations

for teacher salaries; curricular and co-curricular activities;

and campus beautification.

Memorial Gifts and Honorariums

Donations made in memory or honor of an individual(s)

are considered undesignated gifts and used for the

immediate needs of Rockhurst High School.

Designated GiftsBenefactors may direct the use of a contribution for a

specific purpose.

Endowment Gifts

The Rockhurst High School Financial Aid Committee

directs tuition assistance. Awards are need-based

and made with the counsel of an independent third

party firm called FAIR (Financial Aid Independent Review)

based on financial information provided by each

family. The donor’s preferences with regard to awards

from endowment funds are always a consideration.

Endowed Scholarships

Endowed gifts by benefactors are invested for long-

term growth, with only interest awarded. A $50,000

principal balance is needed for a fund to make grants;

however, most funds begin with a minimal balance

and grow in strength over time.

Matching Gifts

Companies match or multiply employee’s giving.

Spouses and retirees can also participate in a matching

gift program by designating their gifts to Rockhurst High

School. “Credit” for these matching gifts accrues to the

individual donor.

Stock Gifts

Donors gift securities or land. The advantage of a

stock gift is it enables donors to avoid capital gains on

the appreciation in market value of the shares.

Bequests

Bequests are made through a written and executed will,

can specify a dollar amount, percentage or portion of the

donor’s estate, or items of property. Bequests reduce the

size of donor’s taxable estate, thus enabling heirs to pay

less in taxes. Benefactors may specify that a bequest be

used for scholarships, buildings, or endowment.

Charitable Gift Annuity

A charitable gift annuity is a contract between the donor

and charity by which the donor transfers property (cash,

securities, real estate) to the charity in exchange for a

fixed dollar payment during the donor’s lifetime. It enables

a donor to receive guaranteed income that is partially tax-

free and avoid capital gains tax on appreciated property

and removes the donated property from the donor’s fed-

eral and probate estate.

Charitable Remainder Trust

A charitable remainder trust is a legal arrangement be-

tween a donor and a trustee of the donor’s choice that

allows the donor to transfer property to the donor’s se-

lected charity and to receive income from the property

or to create income for another person. The donor also

receives a partial income tax deduction in the year of

the gift. A charitable remainder trust enables a donor

to reduce or avoid capital gains taxes on appreciated

property.

Charitable Lead Trusts

A charitable lead trust provides a donor with income for a

specific number of years while reducing gift and estate taxes

on the assets passed on to family members. This vehicle of

giving enables a donor to provide pre-determined payouts to

a charity for a defined period of time. Once the term expires,

the assets revert to the donor or the donor’s family.

U .S . Charitable Gift Trust

This pooled income fund offers the benefits of a charitable

gift trust without the expense. Funds are pooled with

individual investor sub-accounts. A mutual fund company,

which manages the funds in one of three investment

strategies, operates the trust. An investor can choose

among a high yield, income, or a growth and income

field. A minimum investment is required and additional

incremental investments may be made. Immediate tax

deductions apply, which become greater with increasing

age. Since a mutual fund company manages the trust,

charges are minimal.

Life Insurance

A gift of life insurance is a vehicle that allows a donor

to pass all or part of his or her estate with minimum cost,

maximum benefit, and often, an estate tax advantage. A donor

is able to claim a charitable deduction for (approximately) the

policy’s cash surrender value, and the proceeds are

removed from his or her estate.

Real Estate and Motor Vehicles

Gifts of real estate include a principal residence,

vacation home, farm, commercial property, and land.

A donor will receive an income tax deduction as well

as a reduction or elimination of a capital gains tax. Rockhurst

High School accepts donations of motor vehicles. The

school will sell the vehicle and the donor receives a tax-

deduction for the amount of the sale.
