Alumni Spotlight
Favorite Teachers
|
|
We got some interesting responses to our favorite teacher question. Some people just submitted a name, while others sent us their story as well. Below are some of the emails we received.
There's still time to tell us about your favorite teacher during your time at NC. Send us the name and story here. We will include them in the next edition of the newsletter.
|
|
|
|
I don't have a specific story to tell, but of all the great teachers I had a NC, my favorite teacher was Walter Lease who taught us calculus in my senior year. The class was not easy and Mr. Lease challenged us continually in the math he taught. To help keep us interested and to break the dryness of the subject, he would routinely discuss investment tactics related to stocks and bonds - something that many of us had to start implementing with the advent of the 401(k) in 1978. In looking at the list of fellow class of 72 alumni who took his class and their eventual careers, I think he would have been proud of what he instilled in us. I know my retirement wouldn't be what it is without the math and stock lessons he taught me. Thank you Mr. Lease.
Rich Pieper - class of 72

My 2 favorite teachers at North Catholic were Frank Orga and Walt Quinn
Mr. Orga taught my accounting which became my chosen profession for over 40 years. He also had us for homeroom as he was in charge of the student council, in addition to coaching baseball and ice hockey. We built a Trojan horse for the 1974 football game against that boys school in Oakland. It was so big you could fit 6 to 7 Trojans inside it. The question became what to do with the horse after the football game. We decided that it was appropriate to drive it to Mr. Orga’s house and deposit it in his driveway for him to find the next morning.
Walt Quinn taught us AP English for two years. He inspired the love of classics, Including the Greek classics which inspired our Trojan horse idea. Plus, he was just this really cool dude.
Carl Apel - class of 74
|
|
|
|
|
So hard to single one out, but I would go with George Oesterling. He was also my soccer coach. Mr. Sprys was right there.
John Franko - class of 80
|
|
Mr Schon was a very practical gentleman and great 9th grade English teacher. Not only did he teach us English and literature, but other practical things, like critical thinking and Robert's Rules of Order. I think he taught his whole career at North, from its founding in 1939 until his retirement.
Jeff Witherel - class of 66

Flashback Photo
Last Month's Flashback
This is a picture from the 1991 yearbook of the outdoors club practicing rappelling down the side of North into the parking lot
|
|
We got a few responses on this photo.
Tara Nicotra Aiello ('91) said, "I know Bridget Sypolt is in the picture and the group was using the building to learn rappelling skills, but I’m not sure if it was for an Outdoors Club or for some other reason. I just remember thinking that they were nuts."
Retired teacher Beth Young provided the most information. "That is the Outdoors Club, moderated by Greg Evans. Given that this is probably the pic that I took for the yearbook, I would guess that is Bridget Sypolt rappelling down the side of the annex. The group did this to practice before they went out into the wilds to try the same thing on rocks and trees instead of cement and macadem."
This Month's Flashback

Military Legacy Scholarship
North Catholic has a Military Legacy Scholarship in honor of all alumni who have served in our nation’s military forces. The goal is to provide a $1,000.00 scholarship annually. To date we have raised over $30,000 to fund this annual scholarship. The scholarship is awarded annually to the student provided certain benchmarks are met. Every 4 years (or sooner) it is awarded to an incoming 9th grade student. Molly Burke ('24) is the recipient of the scholarship.
If you wish, you may make a contribution in someone's honor/memory. Donations can be made by sending checks payable to North Catholic, write "North Catholic Military Scholarship" in the memo, and mail to:
North Catholic High School
1617 Route 228
Cranberry Township, PA 16066
ATTN: Development Office
The John Latulippe Memorial Scholarship
The John Latuilippe Memorial Scholarship has been awarded to Gabriel Grindstaff - NC class of 2024. Thank you to all who have donated.
Class of 1959 Scholarship
The NCHS Class of 1959 Scholarship Fund has awarded $5,200 Scholarships for the 2022-23 School Year to Brianna Venturella and Shamus Straub.
The Fund has awarded scholarships totaling $82,800 to ten recipients since the inception of the Fund. Contributions to the Fund can be made at any time and should be sent to the North Catholic Foundation, North Catholic High School, ATTN: Class of 1959 Scholarship Fund, 1617 Route 228, Cranberry Township, PA 16066.
Class of 1965 Legacy Scholarship
The Class of 1965 Legacy Scholarship awards for the 2021-2022 school year were made to Thomas Zizan and Kaitlyn Kenaan. They are children of NC alums Julie Rogalla ('87) and Dan Kenaan ('91) respectively. Each student received $1,000 each to help with tuition. Both students were on the honor roll last semester.
While the Legacy Scholarship continues to grow, we do need the help of our classmates to increase the scholarship fund. If we can get more of our classmates to step up and help keep our legacy scholarship fund growing, there is no end to what the money can do to help a student to get the great education that North provided to us and continues to do so today. No contribution is too small. Thanks to BILL GUBANIC for his recent donations. If you have questions, feel free to contact Bob Colbert (bobcolbert@comcast.net) or Walt Quinn (quinn.walter@comcast.net)
Some of our classmates are committing to making a monthly donation via their credit card. It's a painless way to contribute and Bob Colbert and others have been doing so for a while. As Bob said, "it's less that the cost of a bottle of wine." If you would like to contribute a small monthly amount via your credit card, contact Amber Nicotra Morrison to set it up.
John Mikulan is also donating 20% of the royalties from his book, The Bark of the Day to the fund.
Class of 1966 Scholarship
The Class of ’66, under the leadership of Tom John Balestreire, is well on its way to funding its goal of $100,000 for the Class of ’66 Scholarship Fund. The Fund will be administered by the Class in conjunction with the school. We, Tom Maier, Jim Beran, Hank Marziale, Paul Ladish, and Bob Gierl have contacted many but if you or someone you know is wishing to be included, contact Tommy, 404.358.4864, text or call.

Kathy Monti Memorial Scholarship
Special thanks to all who donated to the Kathy Hickey Monti (’75) scholarship. More than $20,000 has been raised to help provide financial support for a young woman who possesses the same leadership qualities that Kathy demonstrated in her life. A member of the first co-ed class at North, Kathy was a leader among her peers, becoming the first captain of North's first women's basketball team. Later she was named Assistant Basketball Coach, who along with Coach Don Barth (’51), led the Trojanettes to win multiple state championships. In 2017, just before her death, Kathy was voted unanimously into the North Catholic Hall of Fame. Kathy will long be remembered for her impact on hundreds of lives as a teacher, an assistant basketball coach and female role model for girls. If you'd like to donate, please click here or checks can be sent payable to North Catholic with "Kathy Monti Scholarship Fund" in the Memo and mailed to North Catholic High School, 1617 Route 228, Cranberry Township, PA 16066.

NC Class of 1953 Scholarship
Dear 1953 Classmates:
This letter is intended to provide a brief history and status report on the North Catholic Class of 1953 Scholarship Fund (“the Fund”).
The Fund was proposed by Reg Urschler in the Spring of 2021. An initial meeting was held in early May and, among other things, an ad hoc committee was established comprised of Vince Brogan, Bob Muth, Charley Goetz, and Reg Urschler. Excellent letters were prepared, describing the Fund and soliciting donations, by Vince and Reg, and first appeared in the June and July editions of the North Catholic Alumni Newsletters. These letters continue to be mentioned in the Newsletters which also provide links to the original letters.
Total donations to the Fund currently amount to over $27,000.00. The types of donations include: outright gifts; donations in honor of living classmates; gifts in memory of deceased classmates; and donations suggested in obituaries in lieu of flowers. The amounts of individual donations have ranged from under $100 to over $11,700. Most gifts are in the $100 to $500 range.
The ad hoc committee has decided to award its first scholarship this summer to an incoming senior for the 2022 - 23 school year. The award will be a one-time award of $1,000. If future awards are of a similar amount, our Fund should provide a legacy that lasts for at least another 25 years.
The ad hoc committee urges all of our classmates to make new or continuing contributions to the Fund. How fortunate we were to have had the benefit of the education afforded us and what a wonderful opportunity this provides to all of us and the remaining families to "invest" in a "guaranteed return on that investment" by providing a similar opportunity to current students' futures.
Checks should be made payable to the “NC Class of 1953 Scholarship Fund”, and sent to the attention of:
Amber Morrison
North Catholic High School
1617 Route 228
Cranberry Township, Pa 16066
We hope this letter finds you in good health, and reminds you of our wonderful years at North Catholic.
Forever True,
The Ad Hoc Committee
NC Class of 1953 Scholarship Fund

Planned giving is a wonderful way to prepare for the day we depart this life and enter into God's kingdom. By planning ahead, you can provide opportunities to young men and women by supporting North Catholic. Planned giving allows us to help continue the work of Christ and pass on our traditions and Catholic Marianist values. Gifts can be specified in one's will as either a dollar amount of a stated percentage of one's estate. A growing number of alumni have taken this step and discovered a great sense of joy and satisfaction that they are helping families. If you are interested in finding out more, please click here or contact Amber Nicotra Morrison in the Development Office at amorrison@northcatholic.org.
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
