Who: Our guest speaker, Laura Lewis graduated from Ohio Dominican University in Columbus, Ohio in 1999 with her Bachelor of Arts degrees in Psychology and Theology. Read more about Laura’s background here.


What: Building Adversity Through Resiliency — Adversity is a bit like exercise – we can’t get fit if we sit around and do nothing, but if we do too much we will break down and get hurt! Come learn helpful ways to support your student as they “work out” their challenges and how to help increase their self-confidence and resiliency as they experience life’s normal (and necessary!) frustrations and setbacks.

 

Where: Newark Catholic High School Cafeteria

 

When: October, 28 from 7 p.m – 8 p.m.

The Newark Catholic 3rd Annual Community Prayer Breakfast will be held at Newark Catholic High School on Thursday, October 17, 2019. Bishop Robert J. Brennan will be the featured speaker. Bishop Brennan was installed as the Roman Catholic Diocese of Columbus’ 12th bishop in March. His strength lies in parish pastoral activity.

His work has included catechetical ministry, Catholic schools, pastoral care for the sick, and youth ministry. 

Breakfast will begin at 6:30 am with the program starting at 7:00 am and concluding by 7:45 am.  The Newark Catholic Ensemble will also perform at the breakfast.

Edward Jewett – National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalist

September 16, 2019

Newark Catholic senior, Edward Jewett was announced as a semi-finalist last week by the National Merit Scholarship Corporation. Approximately 16,000 Semifinalists in the 65th annual National Merit Scholarship Program were named. 

 

Over 1.5 million juniors in about 21,000 high schools entered the 2020 National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the 2018 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT®), which served as an initial screen of program entrants. The nationwide pool of Semifinalists, representing less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors, includes the highest-scoring entrants in each state. The number of Semifinalists in a state is proportional to the state’s percentage of the national total of graduating seniors.

 

Students will have an opportunity to continue in the competition for some 7,600 National Merit Scholarships worth more than $31 million that will be offered next spring. Over 90 percent of the Semifinalists are expected to attain Finalist standing, and about half of the Finalists will win a National Merit Scholarship, earning the Merit Scholar® title.
