Current students and alumnae of St. Teresa’s Academy are truly blessed to have benefited from the

supporters in our passionate community. This community bands together like no other to ensure St. Teresa’s remains a leader in education. As a result, this historic, all-female school has survived over 151 years, longer than any other in Kansas City.

My heartfelt appreciation goes out to all those listed within these Annual Report pages. I also share deep gratitude for those who have donated their time and talents with St. Teresa’s, as well as parents who entrust us with their daughters’ educations. The talented, hard-working STA faculty and staff, who commit themselves to their profession and their students, help to make it all possible.

In my recent talks with students, I’m inspired by the fruits of the community’s support. Students consistently expressed, “I feel like myself at St. Teresa’s;” “I can truly be who I am;” and “There’s no other school like STA.” The power of the St. Teresa’s Academy community has helped to create this model school, developed especially to empower young women to go out and change the world.

With great appreciation,

Nan Bone, President

INTRODUCTION BY MICHELLE WIMESSt. Teresa’s Academy Board of Directors Chairperson

THE COMMITMENT, ENTHUSIASM, AND GENEROSITY of a devoted community have been instrumental in establishing St. Teresa’s Academy as the leader in educating young women. Over the course of the last 151 years, with the help of the St. Teresa’s community, generations of young women have found their voices, their passions, and pursued their commitment to serve their own communities.

I am proud to be part of the power of the St. Teresa’s Academy community. As the chairperson of the Board of Directors, and as a past STA parent, soon-to-be current parent, donor, and volunteer, I have seen firsthand the mission and vision of the Sisters of St. Joseph at work. Due to the generous nature of our community, St. Teresa’s continues to achieve excellence in terms of educational trends, curriculum, facilities, extracurricular activities, and technology.

THEPOWER OF COMMUNITY

“ I think community is so important to the success of St. Teresa’s, what we do and how we do it every day.”

DONORS MAKE IT POSSIBLE

The gifts of the donors listed within these Annual Report pages, as well as those who came before them, are critical to the top-notch education our students receive. Whether their support comes through the Capital Campaign, Academy Fund, endowment, or in-kind donations (to name a few), a glance at our college matriculation rates (99%-100%), composite ACT scores, athletic accomplishments, and extracurricular activities clearly provide evidence of the amazing impact donors make.

ALUMNAE EMPOWER FUTURE GENERATIONS

Alumnae of St. Teresa’s Academy (like my two daughters) use their powerful voices, their time, and their gifts to advance in their lives and careers, while impacting and serving their communities. The contributions of time and money given on behalf of the alumnae community are crucial in

Pictured (l to ri): Sydney (’15), Saige (’22), Brian, Michelle, and Gabby Wimes (’17)

ensuring the same exceptional education at St. Teresa’s is available for future generations of young women.

PARENTS SERVE CRUCIAL ROLES

Parents are part of the living, breathing community of St. Teresa’s Academy. We have the unique opportunity to raise funds to maintain the quality of education that STA provides. Parents are active in serving on the Auction and Capital Campaign committees, as well as contributing financially to their successes. Parents dedicate impressive amounts of time in support of St. Teresa’s. The Star Galaxy Diversity Committee, Star Shop, StarCups, and fundraising efforts would not be possible without them.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS FACES IMPORTANT CHALLENGES

The Board of Directors of St. Teresa’s Academy plays an important role within the

community. The Board cares deeply about the mission of the Sisters of St. Joseph, and is committed to ensuring that students receive 21st century best practice educational opportunities. To accomplish that goal, we are continually reviewing school policies, and adapting to reflect an ever-evolving world.

Some of the challenges the Board faces relates to diversity and inclusion, and technology. STA’s current long-range strategic plan includes specific objectives toward diversity and inclusion, including attracting and retaining a diverse faculty and staff. These goals and action steps will continue to be among our priorities.

St. Teresa’s continually works to stay ahead of technology to best prepare our students for their academic and career futures. To do so, investments have been made in our facilities, curriculum, and tools to help give graduates a competitive edge.

HEAR MYPRAYERStudents lift each other up in prayer through the new Prayer Wall.

THE ST. TERESA’S ACADEMY PRAYER WALL is found outside the Chapel of St. Joseph in the Windmoor Center. As students enter the Chapel for Class Masses, Adoration, or independent prayer, they may post an anonymous petition on the “Hear My Prayer” wall. Those entering the Chapel may select a prayer to lend their voices to the intention. The prayer is pinned on the “Your Prayer has been Heard” wall upon leaving.

“ It’s a good way to bring the STA sisterhood full circle. Holding the anonymous prayers in your heart, lifting it up to God, brings the sense of community together even more.”

– Claire Wunder (’19)STA Daily Prayer Coordinator

Sophomore students submit and collect prayers from the Prayer Wall before their Class Mass.

Andrea Essner, director of campus ministry and service, expressed, “The Prayer Wall helps to illustrate the powerful reality that we are all connected to one another, that we all are struggling with similar things and can relate to one another.”

At the end of the fall semester, over 500 petitions had been offered for prayer. Senior Maura Graham said, “I love giving up Mass for someone else. It takes the stress from someone, and brings the STA community together to be there for one another.”

STA STUDENTS BENEFIT FROM A GIVING NATURE

Arthur (Art) Forster was described as a person who, “When he walked in a room, he was adding value.” He grew up with a strong Catholic upbringing in Kansas City, Missouri, in St. Francis Xavier Parish. He was a member of the first graduating class of Rockhurst College in 1918. As he launched his career, Mr. Forster found his success in several industries, including real estate, and was owner of the Arthur A. Forster Co.

AMONG MR. FORSTER’S MANY VIRTUES WAS HIS PHILANTHROPY. He was a very humble and giving person whom many would turn to for help. To benefit others, Mr. Forster

created the MH Gray Charitable Trust in 1968. The Trust was renamed the Forster Powers Charitable Trust in 1983 in honor of Mr. Forster’s mother, Louise Engle Forster, and his sister, Helen Forster Powers.

Since Mr. Forster’s death in 1985, the Trust has been administered by his close friends and associates who have continued his focus on benefiting Catholic and educational organizations. Since 1993, over $700,000 has been donated to St. Teresa’s Academy, which has benefited 170 students through scholarships.

Maureen Egan, class of 2018, is one of 14 students who was awarded a scholarship from the Forster Powers Charitable Trust during the 2017-2018 school year. Maureen expressed, “I am super thankful to have received this scholarship and to go to school at STA. I couldn’t have afforded to attend otherwise.” Maureen continues the family legacy of attending St. Teresa’s, having followed in the footsteps of both her mother and sister.

Each year, St. Teresa’s Academy offers approximately 150 scholarships to students, including incoming freshmen. It is through the generosity of our benefactors who support these scholarships that St. Teresa’s can continue to offer a premiere, Catholic, college-prep education to young women in the Kansas City area. Thank you to all who have established and continue to support the following scholarships:

EMPOWERING WOMEN

“ I’ve always believed in education for women. It goes back many years in my family.”

–Kitty Tierney

IN 2017, THE TIERNEY FAMILY GENEROUSLY decided to share the gift of an education at St. Teresa’s Academy with other young women by starting the Tierney Family Scholarship. The Scholarship will be awarded to an incoming freshman, solely based upon financial need, and will follow that young woman throughout her four years at St. Teresa’s.

Strong, educated women have long grown

within the branches of the Tierney family tree, and some of their roots began in the STA community. James Tierney’s mother, Anna Schweiger Tierney, graduated St. Teresa’s Academy as a member of the class of 1913. Growing up in Chillicothe, Kitty Tierney was surrounded and influenced by aunts who all completed college.

When it came to Kitty and James’s daughters, Ann Tierney Prochnow (’85) and

Katie Tierney Blando (’88), St. Teresa’s Academy was chosen to help prepare them for their college and career choices. Ann’s daughter, Sophia Prochnow (’16), made her own decision to continue the family legacy.

Ann, who is a member of the STA Board of Directors, stated, “At St. Teresa’s, you are surrounded by all these women who not only want to do well academically, but also want to do well in the world.”

2017 | DONORS BY GRADUATING CLASS

CONTINUED CONNECTION

Michele McGrath Schloegel (’58) and Frank Schloegel began their long-term giving to St. Teresa’s Academy with a donation to support the Janet Bax Scholarship, which honors their good friends’ daughter. Their generous giving has continued to a variety of causes at St. Teresa’s over the course of the past 19 years. Like many valuable donors, their long-term support is honored and celebrated.

Pictured (l to r): Frank Schloegel, Theresa Schloegel Scott (Academy Woman ’89), Sal Scott (’18), and Michele McGrath Schloegel (’58). The history of St. Teresa’s Academy within the Schloegel family reaches back to Frank’s sister, Mary Joyce Schloegel (’57).

In addition to their valuable giving, Michele and Frank have enjoyed the unique opportunity of sharing their home with their granddaughter, Sal Scott (’18), during her high school years at St. Teresa’s. Sal’s parents (Theresa Schloegel Scott (’89) and Jeffrey Scott) live in Belize, Central America. Sal chose to attend St. Teresa’s for high school so she could receive “the best education possible.”

GIVING BACK

“ There’s something special about STA. It was my home for four years, and I love it. I feel that if I’m able to give back, I should.”

– Carrie Hudson (’13)

EVEN WHILE A STUDENT at St. Teresa’s Academy, Carrie Hudson (’13) would give back when she was able. Upon Carrie’s high school graduation, her mother, Debi Hudson, STA director of college counseling, gave a Christmas gift in Carrie’s honor to the STA Women’s Circle of Giving, establishing a pattern of giving that still exists.

Carrie stated, “Reading the Women’s Circle of Giving grants allows me to keep up with what’s going on at St. Teresa’s, including the advances in STEAM curriculum. It feels like I have a piece of STA.” Now a college graduate, Carrie serves the dear neighbor in her community through her career with a national non-profit organization.

LIVING THEMISSION

Sr. Ruth Stuckel, CSJ, has retired but returns to STA to support the CSJA Program.

18

IN 2008, THE ASSOCIATE PROGRAM OF THE CSJ (Congregation of St. Joseph) was introduced at St. Teresa’s Academy to provide participating faculty and staff with a deeper understanding of the history and charisms (the gift of the Holy Spirit) of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet. All faculty and staff are invited to join the annual formation program, which takes place over the course of the academic year.

Coordinators and theology teachers, Michael Sanem and Jennifer Greene, lead the formation program with the valuable

NEW TEACHERS TO ST. TERESA’S ACADEMY attend a CSJ introductory session to learn more about the partnership they have joined, and their role in the ministry.

“ The CSJA program provides both time and opportunity to deepen relationships–not only to truly care for the dear neighbor, but also to inspire everyone to spread the good news of God’s infinite, unconditional, and eternal love.”

—Sr. Ruth Stuckel, CSJ

help and insights of Sr. Ruth Stuckel, CSJ. Each participant is assigned a CSJA mentor and works within a group through different chapters, such as the history, charisms, and spirituality of the Sisters of St Joseph.

Michael reflected, “Going through the CSJA formation gives greater appreciation of the unique ways the Sisters and their partners live the gospel. One of the main reasons I chose to become a CSJA was to have a better understanding and expertise to speak about the mission. Becoming an Associate has influenced my curriculum.”

ELEVATINGEDUCATION

“ These enhancements are what young women in our community need to fully embrace their lives with no limits.”

– Tom McDonnell

Academy 150 Capital Campaign cabinet members (l to r): Bob Langdon, Jim Kissick, Tom McDonnell, Kevin Connor, and Nan Bone (’69).

24

To acknowledge and honor major donors to the Academy 150 Capital Campaign, an art installation titled, BLOOM, has been commissioned from Kansas City artist Rachelle Gardner-Roe. When completed, BLOOM will be installed within the vestibule in the main entrance to the Goppert Center, providing a beautiful reminder of the supportive St. Teresa’s Academy community.

Rachelle drew inspiration from the magnolia trees on the Windmoor campus. In detailing the inspiration for the work of art, she stated, “Each lace petal represents a donor and together, they create golden, blooming clusters of lace. Along with this metaphorical representation, each petal is connected to a ‘root’ that leads to the name of a donor. The suspended sculpture creates a floating effect, while the roots are attached to the wall, lending to an ethereal quality that is simultaneously grounded.

“As St. Teresa’s Academy cultivates the intellectual and spiritual blooming of young women, may BLOOM be a reminder of this dichotomous nature, of loss and gain, and of the path behind us, but may it also be a welcoming herald into a space made possible by the collective spirit of many, looking to the future.”

Thank you to the following businesses, organizations, and individuals who contributed items or services to St. Teresa’s Academy in 2017.

Mary Carol Garrity’s gifts to St. Teresa’s Academy can be found walking the halls of Donnelly Hall. As founder of Nell Hill’s, one of the most popular home interior stores in the Midwest, Mary Carol has contributed to the timeless design and décor of the Donnelly entryway and newly updated Zahner Lounge. In approaching the space, Mary Carol and Nell Hill’s designer, Kristen Kurtz, “worked toward creating a youthful space that held true to the traditions of the school.” The same skillful eye and décor will be applied to the prominent Campus Ministry space that students will enjoy once the Academy 150 Capital Campaign expansion is completed.

STA senior Sarah Mendez has received scholarship funding from Mary Carol and her husband, Dan, throughout her high school years. Sarah and her parents chose St. Teresa’s because they wanted Catholic teachings to be part of Sarah’s daily schedule. Her long-term career goal will be to take what she’s learned, to help the dear neighbor without distinction, and use it on a global scale by becoming a pediatric surgeon, and providing free surgery to children in underdeveloped countries.

Lara Phelps Dwyer (’92) was a beloved wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend who lost a courageous battle with cancer in 2007. Family and friends describe Lara as a true friend, as evident by the loyalty and love of her friends, even after her passing. In honor of Lara’s 25th STA high school reunion in 2017, a scholarship was created in her name.

A kick-off event to help raise money for the Lara Phelps Dwyer Scholarship Fund was held in October of 2017. Lara’s sister, Michelle Phelps (’97) said, “St. Teresa’s always held a special place in Lara’s heart, not only as a result of the bonds she created among her friends, but also due to the long lineage of family members who attended STA. Her grandmother, Carol Burns Sterner Mitchell† (’42); mother, Mary Jo Sterner Phelps (’67); aunts; sisters; and many cousins all shared in the sisterhood of STA.”

MENTORINGMATTERSSTA’s eMentoring program gives students a professional’s point of view into future career opportunities.

DR. SEQUITA BROWN RICHARDSON (’90) SHARES HER GIFT OF TIME with St. Teresa’s Academy students through the eMentoring program. Sequita works as a family practice physician, who in addition to her practice, supervises students and residents, and volunteers at a local free health clinic. By donating her time with the eMentoring program, she allows STA students who are interested in the medical field to understand all aspects of the profession, including the “not-so-glamorous side.”

“ I hope other parents and alumnae will consider participating in such a program. As they say, it takes a village to raise a child. We can all contribute to our girls’ experiences. I hope that I have helped girls see a more objective view of one of their career choices.”

– Dr. Sequita Brown Richardson (’90)

Sequita stated, “I decided to be an eMentor because there was a need. I have always wanted to give back to STA. My daughter, Victoria Richardson (’16), has benefited from the program. Her participation in the eMentoring program with an engineer helped her realize that she was interested in industrial engineering.”

IF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN participating in the eMentoring program, please contact one of the program directors: Paula Holmquist at pholmquist@stteresasacademy.org or Kathleen Barry at kbarry@stteresasacademy.org.

MUSIC IS THE PERFECT AVENUE FOR CREATING COMMUNITY

IN DECEMBER OF 2017, THREE TALENTED ALUMNAE gathered over 45 STA graduates together from the classes of 1959 to 2007 to reunite and entertain in song. Susie Adams (’77), Karen Engebretson (’75), and Roberta Gumbel (’78) led the alumnae choir as they performed Christmas classics for their audience in the M&A Auditorium.

“ THE Alumnae Christmas Choral Performance went smoothly, and exceeded our expectations. What a gift!”

– Susie Adams (’77)

Susie, Karen, and Roberta honed their talents while students at St. Teresa’s, and each devoted their professional lives to the musical arts. They expressed that joining the alumnae choir’s beautiful voices together in harmony proved to be an inclusive experience, as well as a great way to visit with old STA friends and meet some new ones.

WOMEN’S CIRCLE OF GIVINGListed below are the generous contributors of the Women’s Circle of Giving (WCG), a philanthropic group of women who enjoy collaborating to advance the mission of St. Teresa’s Academy. Half of the WCG funds are distributed to STA families with financial need; the remaining half is available for faculty and staff members to apply for grants.

Please consider joining the Women’s Circle of Giving by contacting President Nan Bone at 816.501.0021 or nbone@stteresasacademy.org.

“ I was ecstatic, and had no words. Taking that trip helped give me more confidence and independence. It was good preparation for my life beyond high school.”

—Hannah Dobson (’17) Women’s Circle of Giving

Travel Grant Recipient

THE WOMEN’S CIRCLE OF GIVING (WCG) supports the STA community by meeting needs that could not be met within the existing operating budget. Members of the WCG pool their contributions to maximize their philanthropic efforts. After reviewing grant requests, each member has an equal voice in how the funds are distributed.

FUNDINGA DREAM

In 2017, Hannah Dobson (’17) submitted a grant to the WCG. As part of Hannah’s Literature & Pilgrimage class, students had the option of joining a class trip to Italy to subsidize their study of Dante’s Divine Comedy. Hannah’s grant request asked for help funding the trip so she would be able to attend. A group of WCG members rallied together to back her cause, triumphantly, helping to make the trip possible.
