A letter from our Principal 

Dear Alumni and Friends of Bishop Luers High School, 

It is unbelievable how quickly the school year passes. We are 

well into second quarter and staring Thanksgiving and 

Christmas right in the face. Our year is going well. We 

continue to hold parent teacher conferences at the end of 

first quarter. Although most high schools have abandoned 

this practice, we usually meet with about 60-70% of our 

parents. It is a joy to see that many of our parents are 

Luers grads! 

As we were last year, Bishop Luers High School is again this 

year named as an exemplary school (A rating) by the 

Indiana Department of Education. This honor is due to the 

work, dedication, and care that our teachers display. In 

math, on the End of Course Assessment (ECA), the State 

passing average is 77%. Bishop Luers High School 

students scored 92.7%. In English, the State average on 

the (ECA) is 77% passing. Bishop Luers High School 

students scored 87%. We also demonstrated 

improvement based on the number of our students who 

passed I-Step in the 8th grade compared to the number of 

students who passed the math and English ECA at Bishop 

Luers. We earned bonus points based on the number of 

students who, after not passing the ECA in English by the 

end of 10th grade, had passed the exam by graduation. 

A school’s graduation rate can be lowered based on the 

number of students who began as 9th graders at a high 

school, withdrew, and do not show that they registered at 

another school. Bishop Luers was pleased to announce 

that every senior who was in our school in May of 2012, 

did indeed graduate. Based on the above rubric, however, 

our graduation rate was 96% compared to the State 

average of 85%. 

The last criterion to be judged is College and Career 

readiness. Although it did not hurt our A ranking, it is an 

area upon which we can improve.

This section is based on 

the percentage of 

Advanced Placement 

(AP), International 

Baccalaureate, Dual 

Credit, or Industry 

Certification of student 

success. The State goal 

is 25%. We scored 

25.8% which gave us the 

maximum number of points, but we want to increase the 

number of students who earn a 3, 4, or 5 on the AP 

exams. Bishop Luers High School offers AP courses in 

English and Literature 12, calculus, biology, US history, 

economics, and chemistry. These are rigorous courses 

that enable a student to earn college credit provided they 

score high enough on the end of course exam. Bishop 

Luers also offers dual credit courses. Students pay a 

nominal fee to the college, and take courses that enable 

them to earn credit at Bishop Luers and at college. We 

work with the University of St. Francis for a dual credit in 

theology and with IPFW for dual credit courses in 

psychology, pre-calculus, business, and theater. 

Several of our students spend a morning or an afternoon at 

Anthis Career Center learning a trade. These may include 

computer programming, firefighting, welding, or 

construction, to name a few. These students remain 

students at Bishop Luers High School; however, this is 

another way to prepare them for the world after 

graduation. 

A blessed Thanksgiving and Christmas season to each of you. 

Sincerely, 

Mary Keefer

Congratulations 

Bishop Luers Distinguished Knights! 

Jim Saul, class of ’63, Outstanding Alumnus and Diane Karst, 

Honorary Alumna. 

Jim Saul is the epitome of Luers Spirit. He has lived out the saying, "once a Knight, always a Knight." His strong 

faith, loyalty to Catholic education and a love of the south side of Fort Wayne make him the perfect recipient for this 

award. Not only is Jim a Luers graduate, but he 

also sent nine children to Bishop Luers. He has 

volunteered his time in the athletic department, 

the music department and the development 

office. Mr. Saul lives a life of integrity, respect, 

responsibility, humility and hard work, all values 

instilled in him while he attended Bishop Luers 

High School. His son says that Jim is the 

quintessential Knight. 

It is because of Diane Karst’s 

extraordinary dedication, support and service to 

Bishop Luers High School and to her community 

that she was selected as the 2012 Outstanding 

Honorary Alumnus. Her students and the school 

have been Diane’s number one priority as she 

works tirelessly throughout the year as Luers 

math department chair, math instructor and BLHS Assistant Athletic Director. Ms. Karst is also very active in St. Jude 

Parish where she serves as a Eucharist Minister. Diane is very humble about her skills and talents and often says that 

the Bishop Luers staff and students make her better every day. 

The Distinguished Knight Award 

Our Distinguished Knight awards were presented during Homecoming 

Mass on September 28. Thank you to everyone who submitted a 

Distinguished Knight nomination form for 2012. All nominations will 

remain on file and will be considered each year. We encourage 

nominations throughout the year. Bishop Luers High School 2013 

Distinguished Knight recipients will be honored at Homecoming, next year, 

on September 27, 2013. Nomination forms are available on our website, 

www.bishopluers.org. 

The Lord in His Wisdom called Home:

Homecoming 2012 


It was a perfect, yet typical, football Friday. The sun was shining, the air was 

brisk, and leaves were changing from bright summer green to warm autumn colors. 

Students all across the city occupied their high school parking lots discussing plans for the evening. 

People fled their offices excited for the weekend ahead. Football teams began boarding their buses, 

cheerleaders began the primping process, and the band members began to tune their instruments. However, on the grounds 

of Bishop Luers, it wasn’t just any Friday football game, it was Homecoming 2012! 

Alumni, students, family, and friends assembled in the school’s gymnasium to kick off Homecoming in true Luers fashion with 

Mass. Once our prayers were in, it was time to eat! There is no better way to start a game than with a delicious tailgate dinner. 

Families gathered underneath a big white tent, devoured delicious food, listened to the music of the Bishop Luers Pep Band, 

and cheered on our Knights as they trotted down the sidewalk from the locker room to the field ready to take on the Redskins of 

North Side High School. 

As the game neared the end, Knight Victory cheers could be heard from miles around. As usual, students began to leave the 

premise, but on this occasion, the Alumni kept the celebration party going! The big white tent that had served as home to the 

tailgate party prior to the game was now transformed into a space for entertaining Bishop Luers alumni of all ages! If people 

weren’t flooding the dance floor to hear the amazing vocal stylings of Vince Saul, 1990 alumni and lead singer of the band 

“Greta Speaks,” they were mingling with old classmates, sitting by the bonfire, or dabbling into the amazing appetizers and 

drinks that were being served. 

There is no doubt that Luers Spirit was alive and well for Homecoming 2012. The event brought together all branches of the 

Luers family and reminded us how lucky we are to be parts of such a wonderful community. Cheers to all who made this year’s 

homecoming a night to remember! Let’s do it again next year! By Laura Booker, class of 2005

This year we had another great turnout and it was a perfect day, 

weather-wise, for the event. Our raffle was a huge success, with 

some of the best gift packages we've ever had. A special thanks to 

all the players who come out every year. Guys travel from all over 

the country in memory of Mark, and this year's game was 

extremely exciting, going into overtime. It's also great to see that 

so many people will still come out and support our cause, and 

remember a friend in Mark. Ryne Daley, class of 2003

squad. Our head coach is Luers grad, Eric Frentz 

’08 with Lonny Nichter ’98 as assistant coach. One 

of the many highlights of our year 

will be the Homestead game on May 

13 th at Indiana Tech. Last year we 

held an end of the year alumni vs. 

varsity game. We would like to 

continue that tradition and hope that 

any alum will contact me for more

Hope to see you at a game!!

Alumni Spotlight 

In the coming months, thousands of college students 

will graduate to the “real world” where they will be faced with 

the daunting task of acting like a professional. 

Hopefully, these young professionals had an internship that 

taught them how to succeed in the competitive working world. 

This column, however, isn’t about how to gain meaningful 

experience at an internship. It is meant for the careless type, 

who wishes merely to fulfill an internship credit and gain 

absolutely no professional experience. 

For that guy or gal, I offer these tips: 

1. Ignore criticism and continue doing things 

your way. Why listen to professionals who are successful 

and know what they are doing? Instead, do things the way 

you—with no professional experience—think they should be 

done and assume everyone else is wrong. 

2. Sit around and relax while you wait for 

your next assignment. Hurry and finish a task and 

then avoid your supervisor until he or she notices that you 

aren’t doing anything. That way you can get by with doing the 

least amount of work and have nothing to show in your 

portfolio. 

3. Give half an effort—it’s only an internship. 

You might be an unpaid intern, whose work isn’t expected to 

be perfect. So why try? Sloppily get things done and show 

your supervisor you couldn’t care less. 

4. Huff and puff over grunt work. Throw a fit 

when you’re given less meaningful tasks to complete. That 

way you will show your supervisor you can’t complete small 

tasks without having a tantrum, so you aren’t ready for larger, 

more significant assignments. 

5. Don’t ask questions; instead, assume you 

will do it right. When you get an assignment that you 

don’t understand, just guess and never ask for clarification. 

6. Constantly refresh social media sites on 

your computer and smart phone. Obviously, your 

Dear Luers alum, 

social life is more important than anything 

else. End of story. If you are asked to 

complete an assignment, make sure you 

By, 

Megan 

Skelly, 

class of 

2008 

refresh Twitter at least seven times before getting started. 

7. Just get up and leave when it’s time for 

you to go. Never check in with your supervisor when you 

are about to leave because he or she might give you more 

work to do. Instead, the minute it’s time for you to leave, just 

charge out the door without saying a word. 

8. Don’t make friends. Be mean to everyone and roll 

your eyes or ignore anyone who is nice to you. If you must 

communicate, be short and emotionless in your response. It’s 

not important to make friends, you are here to complete an 

internship and move on. 

9. Talk all the time and share every detail of 

your life. Stop whoever walks by your desk and tell them 

about your friend’s sister’s cousin who recently broke up with 

her boyfriend. It doesn’t matter that you’re at work and trying 

to actually, you know, work. 

10. Never say a word and sneakily linger 

around others. Sneak around the office without being 

noticed. If you are asked your opinion in a meeting, pretend 

you are mute. That way they will never know if you have a 

good thought or idea. 

So, careless interns, if you wish to gain absolutely nothing 

from your internship experience, except for maybe a few 

gruesome recommendations, follow these tips closely. And 

don’t forget to scowl at your supervisor every morning. 

[Editor's note: Unlike the people described in this article, 

Megan Skelly, the author of this story, has been described as 

a "dream intern" by her superiors.] 

Megan Skelly works in Indianapolis at OrthoIndy and the 

Indiana Orthopaedic Hospital as the PR Coordinator. She 

graduated from Ball State University in 2012 and Bishop 

Luers High school in 2008. Megan served as the 2012 spring 

B2B PR intern at BLASTmedia in Indianapolis. A version of 

this story first appeared on the BLASTmedia blog. 

Do you own or are you working for a company that offers internships or employment opportunities for high 

school, college, or post college age students? In an effort to assist our young alum in gaining experience and/or 

finding employment, we are interested in making connections between Luers alumni to build a base of companies 

or individuals that offer internships or have job opportunities available. As Bishop Luers graduates, this is a chance 

for you to mentor and guide other Luers alum. Together we can strengthen our students and community. If you 

are interested in posting your company information on our Luers facebook, please contact Melissa Hire at 

456-1261 x 3040 or mhire@bishopluers.org. Thank you.

I've been an officer with the Fort Wayne Police Department for 

11 years and a patrolman K9 handler for 3 and half years with 

my partner Bullet. After I was hired by the FWPD, I attended a 

20-week police academy in Fort Wayne. 

After receiving the bid for the K9, Bullet and I went through a 13 

week K9 academy. During the K9 academy we work towards 

certifying with the North American Police Work Dog 

Association (NAPWDA). Bullet and I are certified in narcotic 

detection and utility. Utility consists of obedience, building 

search, tracking, article search, area search and aggression control. We constantly train in 

order to keep our skills sharp. We certify in each phase (narcotic and utility) once a year. 

Bullet is a 6-year -old Dutch shepherd and is the only female of the 10 K9's on FWPD. Bullet lives with me at home and 

I take her to work with me every day. She has a long line of police dogs in her family. Sister Remy works for the New 

Haven Police Department, brother Stryker on the Columbia City Police Department and a brother on the Jeffersonville 

Police Department. 

Last spring I spoke in several classrooms explaining my career as a patrolman. When I was asked about Luers I 

responded, “Luers taught me to keep God and my faith number one. Another value I learned at Luers is that it is 

important to be fair and consistent with the people you work or deal with. By Gary Griffith

school and it’s been a struggle to pay for it. 

Knowing that my tuition was being covered in full 

made me extremely grateful to the Bails because 

I felt that I could now get a first rate education 

without worrying about how to afford it.”

Class of 1971 scholarship. She writes in her 

thank you note, “I am truly thankful for this award. 

At the beginning of the process of choosing my high 

school, Bishop Luers was almost out of the 

question. Thanks to the scholarship from the class 

of 1971, I am attending Bishop Luers High School 

and I thoroughly enjoy it. 

Joseph Davis received the Thomas Eckrich 

Memorial Scholarship for 2012-13. He wrote, 

“I’m deeply honored to receive this award. I want 

to thank you for putting out this scholarship every 

year to give students a chance to help their 

parents with the financial part of attending Bishop 

Luers. I promise you that I’ll work hard and make 

sure I do well in my high school education.” 

Bishop Luers High School 

is the recipient of a donation made by the Angela and Dick 

Weber Charitable Foundation Fund. Dick and Angela Weber 

sent all three of their daughters to Bishop Luers High 

School in the late 60s and early 70s. Dick believes in the 

value of raising his family in the Catholic faith. To him 

prayer and faith are very important and he stated that 

Bishop Luers High School is a great school with a great 

staff. The generous donation made by the Angela and Dick 

Weber Charitable Foundation Fund will go towards 

technology upgrades in five classrooms. Karen Marciano - 

Spanish, Carrie Bubb- English and French, Jeanine 

Skordos – Social Studies, Leo Procise - Biology, and 

Mercedes Montesino – Spanish. These teachers will all 

receive a new projector and Smart board to enhance their 

teaching. Jeanine Skordos’s plan for the Smart board and 

projector in her geography course is to use Google Earth 

to give the students real time visuals of the area they are 

studying. Google Earth is a program that can be

Memorial 

Scholarship for 

2012-2013. “I am 

very grateful to be 

receiving this 

generous 

scholarship money. 

It means such a great deal because having the 

best education possible is so important to me 

and this scholarship will help me achieve this 

goal. Now being into the third month at Bishop 

Luers, I have met so many new people. I love 

every minute of my time at Luers alongside my 

wonderful teachers and peers. I am currently 

involved in Minstrels Show Choir and it is an 

absolutely wonderful experience. I am truly 

looking forward to the next four years at 

Bishop Luers. I intend to keep pushing myself 

to my full, academic potential every day while 

still having fun and growing deeper in my faith. 

Again I am grateful for the support in helping 

me to fulfill this great education.”

ability to see different views of areas being studied. They 

will be able to use more project-based learning skills in all 

subject areas. When asked the question about what she 

would like to say about her new classroom upgrades, she 

said, “We are very appreciative of any help we are 

given. While we work hard to prepare our students for life, 

it is much easier with the help of our generous donors.” 

Over the summer, a gift from the Kathy 

Callen, ’73 and John Powell Fund, made it possible to 

have the necessary repairs completed in room 103. 

The old floor tiles were removed and the floor was 

sealed. The walls were cleaned and painted. With the 

increase in enrollment, this room is being used for 

various classes and activities throughout the day.

LuersKnight is a Dinner/Auction held in April in the 

transformed gymnasium at Bishop Luers. All the money 

raised at LuersKnight is used for tuition assistance and 

operating costs for the entire school. The cost to educate 

one child at Bishop Luers is $7023. A registered active 

Catholic student’s tuition and fees are $5840. A portion of the 

money raised at LuersKnight helps make up this $1183 

difference. The other percentage is utilized for technology, 

student desks, needs-based tuition assistance, smart 

boards and teacher professional development. LuersKnight 

benefits every student at Bishop Luers High School. 

Be a Volunteer 

Hundreds of volunteers are needed to make this a 

successful event. There are small tasks if you have only 

a few hours or more involved activities that include 

planning and construction in the gym. Every duty from 

folding flyers, phone calling, painting, setup, and tear 

down, to collecting auction items is important and makes 

LuersKnight a truly special event. 

Donate to the Live and/or Silent Auctions 

Over 600 items are sold each year in the live and silent 

auctions at LuersKnight. You can assist with cash that is put 

towards a larger item, or contribute a special gift to the auction. 

Provide us with a cash donation and we will do the shopping 

for you. 

All donors are listed in the LuersKnight program. 

Each gift makes a difference! 

LuersKnight 2012 Volunteers

Gift Gathering Parties are a fun way to be a part of the Luers

entry fee or a cash donation. We also encourage each 

family to support LuersKnight by donating $30 to sponsor a 

party. Your generosity enables us to keep our costs down

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT LUERS! 

Campus Ministry by Sue Mathias 

Welcome….FATHER BEN MUHLENKAMP 

Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades has appointed Father Ben as 

Chaplain for Bishop Luers High School. 

BISHOP LUERS STAFF RETREAT: 

The faculty and staff of Bishop Luers High School began the 

new school year with a retreat in earlier August. Bishop John 

M. D’Arcy presented the retreat in the context of daily prayer. 

After proclaiming the gospel of John, chapter 21:15-19, Bishop 

asked those gathered the same question Jesus asked Simon 

Peter, “Do you love me?” Bishop D’Arcy reminded us that our 

ministry as teachers and staff here at Bishop Luers is our 

response to Jesus question, “Do you love me?” Catholic school 

faculty and staff members are a constant testimony that Jesus 

lives. The mission of a Catholic school is to evangelize, 

catechize, and educate students in Christ, nurturing loving 

service to God and neighbor. Bishop D’Arcy mentioned several 

young Olympic competitors who recently gave witness to their 

experience of being Catholic school students and how that is 

impacting their lives. Without doubt, ministering in a Catholic 

school is a vocation, rather than an occupation. The retreat 

continued with Benediction. Father Ben Muhlenkamp, and 

Father Larry Kramer joined Bishop D’Arcy to provide 

opportunities for the Sacrament of Reconciliation before the 

final prayers and blessing. Thank you to our three wonderful 

priest chaplains for making this retreat possible as we began 

our new school year! 

OPENING ALL-SCHOOL MASS & BLESSING OF STAFF 

AND STUDENTS As is our tradition, we began the school year 

with all-school Mass on Friday, September 7, 2012. Priest 

chaplain, Rev. Ben Muhlenkamp was our Presider. At the end 

of Mass, Father Muhlenkamp blessed the students and staff for 

the new school year. After all-school Masses, alumni, 

grandparents and parents are welcome to join us for coffee in 

the concession stand area.

HutsonJoseph Lewis Corine Zay, Criselda Huerta 

The Saint Mother Theodore Guerin Award is given to two 

students from each grade (12,11,10) who are nominated by their 

theology teacher because the student has a love for theology and 

the Church. Saint Mother Theodore Guerin, the foundress of the 

Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary of the Woods College, was 

the first Saint to be canonized whose life work was carried out in 

Indiana. 


Visual Arts Department by Barb Sather 

New …..an amazing ART INSTALLATION, a “Hommage 

to Andy Warhol” is currently being assembled in the art 

(junior) hall. There will be 33 portraits of students in the 

style of Warhol using triad, complimentary, analogous and 

monochromatic color schemes. The colors are exciting! 

We also have an art show in the front lobby highlighting 

Advanced and Intro to 2D art classes. 

Please come and enjoy the fantastic art of BLHS artists. 

Social Studies by Jeanine Skordos 

In Academic Economics we are beginning budgeting, 

starting with a simple student budget and then having the 

students work in groups developing a family budget. We 

have been interspersing the Dave Ramsey personal finance 

with the textbook and the students have been really excited. 

Last week we had a financial planner in to talk to the 

classes and the students had well thought out questions. 

Ghana 

live • breathe • teach 

It’s that time again! Teach on the 

Beach is beginning preparations 

for our annual volunteer trip to 

Ghana, West Africa. We had a phenomenal experience 

this past summer teaching and living on the beach in the 

village of Busua. We built a basketball court, taught in the 

local schools, tutored in the after-school program, and 

participated in the nightly News Hour program with the 

teenage Ghanaian scholars. 

This year we will be taking 

two groups of volunteers. 

First trip will be JUNE 4 th - JUNE 26 th 

Second trip will be JUNE 30 th - JULY 21 st 

If you’re feeling adventurous… stay all summer or plan 

your own trip with dates that work for you!!!

community to help make this experience a reality for 

so many people in our family!

Future Business Leaders of America 

by Katie Yagodinski 

The Bishop 

Luers Chapter 

of the Future 

Business 

Leaders of 

America had 

the privilege 

Friday, 

November 2, 2012, to attend the FBLA National Fall 

Leadership Conference in Indianapolis, Indiana. This 

conference was BLHS FBLA’s first time at one of the National 

Fall Leadership Conferences. This conference was full of 

seminars, group activities, fundraising ideas, scholarship 

opportunities, learning and understanding failure and learning 

to be a great and outstanding leader. A leader must be there 

for his/her group or club and must be able to listen and 

understand, accept failure and to be able to do what is 

necessary and beneficial to the group. “We had a lot of fun 

and learned many interesting things,” Katie Yagodinski said 

enthusiastically. As pictured above, Julia Hayes, Nathan 

Grabner, Sam Stein, and Katie Yagodinski, were chosen to 

attend this conference along with advisor Mr. Matt Lazzaro. 

International faces join Luers family 

Bishop Luers High School is proud to begin the school 

year with 10 international students, with 2 more coming to us 

for second semester. We have always been open to 

accepting students from other countries to study in the United 

States with us. Our staff and students find great value in the 

cultural experiences these students share about their 

countries and their way of life. They bring yet another added 

dimension to our diverse student body; every year we learn 

new ways of looking at the world because of them! 

With us this year are the following students: Johnson 

Zhai from Germany, Yujie “Jason” Wan from China, Hanna 

Luise Schmid from Germany, Yezhi Gong from China, Xuerui 

“Shirley” Hu from China, Tung Nguyen from Vietnam, Tranh 

Hong “Krisley” Nguyen from Vietnam, Joao Pedro de Freitas 

Lobo Vianna from Brazil, Linh Pham from Vietnam and 

Carolin Hasse from Germany. In January for our 2 nd 

semester, we will be welcoming two students from Ghana, 

West Africa – Benjamin Haruna and Emmanuel Adu. We are 

excited about the cultural enrichment these students bring to 

our Bishop Luers community. We learn so much from them, 

and they learn from us.

……..”I think we can all agree that “To Kill a Mockingbird” is 

one of the most iconic books in the history of literature. 

The reason why “To Kill a Mockingbird” is such a treasured 

American classic is because the lesson that it teaches is still 

being taught today. The truth is that all men are not created 

equal. We all have our gifts and our talents. Some are rich and 

some are poor; some are black and some are white; some 

have opportunities in life handed to them from birth and some 

have to work hard to get where they want to be”…. This 

excerpt is from the essay “Changed by a mockingbird” written 

by Bishop Luers junior, Anna Stachofsky. To read the entire 

essay, visit our website www.bishopluers.org 

“A Knight’s Prayer” by Haley Brooks, 

sophomore at Bishop Luers 

When I find myself down and out, 

And ready to scream and shout, 

There is no denying an animal of fear inside of me is ready 

to unleash. 

I turn to Christ who strengthens me. 

Once I know I can no longer stand, 

And feel my worn-out faith ready to disband, 

I crash to my battered and bruised knees. 


As soon as times get tough, 

And my shattered heart has had enough, 

Tears flood from my deep brown eyes like a never-ending 

leak. 


I feel the pounding in my aching head, 

As I state the powerful and comforting words in red. 

I pray the Lord my wearied soul to keep. 


When I feel there is no way through my strife, 

I look to the way, the truth, and the life. 

All will come out all right if I just believe.

As my callused hands grasp my cool rosary beads,

I pick up the cross that I shall bear, and the grace of the 

Lord helps me to my burdened feet.

with 15 returning next season. The Knights are coached 

by 2 nd year head coach Joel Pyle, and assistant coach 

Chris Scheer.

Dear Friends of Bishop Luers, 

The Ties That Bind Us 

When asked to write a short piece for this newsletter thanking 

all the Bishop Luers alumni for their generous support of the 

2012 Annual Fund, I was at a loss for words. "Always thank 

people for their gifts seven times," I recall from my 

philanthropy training days. So, I am writing to say “thank 

you.” 

I put off writing this piece because I got "busy" with life's 

chores and flow of events. 

* I became reacquainted with old friends, now also retired, 

who enjoyed the game of Mah Jongg -- also Luers grads... 

* I found a new dental hygienist and dentist -- both Luers 

grads... 

* I joined a bible study class at church -- and found more 

Luers grads... 

*The neighbor’s children found our door asking for support for 

Walkathon or various sport team sales and we learned how 

many neighbors were Luers grads... 

* A grade school/Luers grad friend, who had moved away 40 

plus years ago came to visit and so we gathered together a 

few more Luers grads to have a mini reunion... 

* We found fellow Luers grads on facebook and when travel 

took us where the conductivity for Luers Live on Friday night 

was absent, the FB friends kept us posted on the score... 

I mention these instances merely to demonstrate that Bishop 

Luers High School provided us with the "ties that bind us" and 

the gift of firendships. That commonality was woven 

throughout our discussions, gatherings, and interests. 

For those of you reading this from afar, let me assure you 

your alma mater is alive and doing well. It is what this former 

urban planner would call "an anchor institution" on the south

side of Fort Wayne. You can 

still hear a pin drop if you are in 

the halls during class times. 

You still feel pride when a 

current student, sporting "the 

shirt" proclaiming "We are the 

light of the world" holds the 

door for you at the grocery 

store. 

The financial need, however, is 

great to keep our high school 

alma mater academically 

proficient in educating the 

student of today. The cost of 

technology upgrades alone is a 

constant financial challenge. 

As a fairly recent addition to the 

alumni committee, I can share 

how amazed I am to see the 

strong commitment to Bishop Luers from students, faculty, 

and especially from parents sacrificing to send their children 

to a Catholic school -- many of whom are NOT Luers grads! 

Again I say thank you to all of your alumni and friends who 

share your time, talent, and financial resources with Bishop 

Luers. 

I know we can do so much more. If you have never given 

before, and I know these are challenging times, would you 

consider a small gift to your high school alma mater? 

Bishop Luers provided us with the ties that bind us together, 

let us use them for the good of the school today. Your 

investment will pay great dividends. Thank you.

P.S. If you are able to provide a more substantial gift, talk to 

or e-mail our development staff and ask for the booklet 

entitled "Our special needs" which lists capital improvement 

needs of our aging school. Thank you. 

On behalf of Bishop Luers High School, please know how grateful we are for your continued support through your generous 

gifts of time, talent and treasure. Because of your kindness and faith in Bishop Luers, students have the opportunity to 

receive the Catholic education they desire, students have improved technology and equipment in their classrooms, and 

students have continued to learn the importance of service and sharing of their faith. 

Congratulations to the class of 1976 for once again leading the Annual Fund giving for the fourth year in a row! 

This year our goal for the 2013 Annual Fund is to raise $62,000 and to increase our donor participation. The 2013 Annual 

Fund brochures will be mailed in December. If we have the same address for alumni from the same family, the household 

may receive more than one copy of the brochure. We are asking all alumni to consider a donation to the Annual Fund. If 

you are the head of a household who has received multiple brochures, please forward the brochure to the alumni for whom it 

was intended. The Alumni Department is constantly updating addresses. If you have updated alumni addresses, you can 

contact the Alumni Department at 260-456-1261 ext. 3040 or email Melissa Hire at mhire@bishopluers.org. 

Again, on behalf of Bishop Luers High School, the students, and the families we serve, thank you so very much.

The gift of a scholarship to a student and his/her family can make all the difference in the world. Some students would not be able 

to attend Bishop Luers High School without need-based tuition assistance or scholarships. If you are interested in establishing a 

scholarship for Luers students, you can do so in honor of a family member, your company, your graduating class, or as a 

memorial, etc. Please contact the Development Office at 260-456-1261.

Each year the Bishop Luers community is saddened by the loss of our own family members. To honor their memory, memorial 

donations are made in their name. Donations can be made at anytime and are used to support our tuition assistance program.

TUITION ASSISTANCE 

These donations are made through the LuersKnight Bishop’s Auction and Adopt-A-Knight. Adopt-A-Knight donations are 

needed throughout the school year and can be made at anytime. In the 2011-2012 school year 66% of our families received 

tuition assistance. With the need for tuition assistance increasing we continue to work on raising funds to support our families in 

need. Investing in the young men and women of today is investing in the future.
