Inspired by a welcome — and pleasing — cup of the “stone soup” that I had at the season fi nale of our celebrated Oak Park Farmers’ Market on
the last Saturday of October, I happily returned to my humble kitchen, laden with a wealth of our earth’s bounty and ready for a fun day of soup making. Alas, there being no more stones available, I relied instead on my purchases and came up with this delicious recipe for minestrone, an Italian vegetable soup that is as enjoyable to make as it is to eat.
In stark contrast to the current practice of cooking vegetables al dente, striving to preserve the individual qualities of each vegetable in a recipe, the aim of a good minestrone is to develop a collective fl avor through long and slow cooking where the individual characteristics of each vegetable surrenders to the pot, allowing all of the vegetables to intermingle.
The fun part of making this soup is the technique employed in its preparation.
As I constantly remind my stu-dents as they multi-task in the classes I teach in the Culinary Arts Program at Kendall Col-lege, “Let the stove work while you’re working!” Here, we build the soup in steps. Each vegetable is added in sequence and has to cook for at least 2 or 3 minutes, so you can peel and cut one veg-etable while the one you added previously is slowly releasing all of its intended goodness. It lessens the tedium.
Regional differences abound in Italian cookery and there are
assuredly as many versions of minestrone as there are vegetables. Here is a version popular in Rome.
Frank Chlumsky, former executive chef of Philander’s restaurant in Oak Park, teaches in Chicago at Kendall College’s School of Culinary Arts. In his 37-year career, Frank has owned restaurants in Michigan City, Ind., and in Lake Geneva, Wis. He has also been executive chef at the Saddle & Cycle Club in Chicago. Frank lives in Forest Park, where he cooks for pleasure.

Children come from far and wide to Keystone Montessori, a school that has gained the reputation as one of the country’s premier
Montessori schools. “The beauty of Montessori education is that it takes into consideration the whole child,” says Vicki Shea, Keystone’s administrative coordinator. “The physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of children are nurtured as well as their academic development and each child is respected as an individual with unique abilities."
If you’re wondering what Montessori education is all about, it’s based on the teachings of Maria Montessori, Italy’s first woman doctor who went on to become a renowned educator. From her observa-tions of the natural development of chil-dren, she believed that a child’s indepen-dence, self-esteem and love of learning could flourish, given the right environment and with guidance from a properly trained teacher. Today, 100 years later, there are Montessori schools all over the world.
Keystone has a class for two-year olds, primary classes for 3-6 year olds, junior elementary classes for 6-9 year olds, senior elementary classes for 9-12 year olds and a middle school. There are parent/infant classes also. One of the hall-marks of Montessori education is group-ing together children of different ages. “In this way children
learn from each other,” says Shea. “It also helps the older children learn a sense of responsibility toward the younger ones.” Children learn by work-ing with specially designed ‘materials’ in an age-appropriate environment which stimulates the senses and encourages exploration. The children are busy, each one involved in doing something either individually or in small groups. In one of the primary classrooms a three-year old is mopping the floor, and a five-year old is counting with a bead chain. In the junior elementary classroom a student is researching snakes and in another part of the room, a group of students is analyzing the grammatical parts of a sentence with the teacher. “Many of Montessori’s obser-vations about how children learn have been borne out by recent research show-ing that children have windows in their development when they can best absorb things like language, music and math,” explains Shea. The school is proud of its consistently high academic achievement but places great emphasis on helping children become well-rounded, respon-sible members of society.
Keystone Montessori is holding an Open House on Sunday, January 23, 2011, 2-4 pm. The school is located at 7415 W. North Ave., River Forest. 708/366-1080.

Rose K. GoedertCenter for EarlyChildhoodEducation
• Quality early childhood education for children ages 2-5• NAEYC-accredited facility on wooded campus• Part time and full-time options available• Year-round program
Hours: 7:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.Call to schedule a tour.
Dominican University’s Rose K. Goedert Center for Early Childhood Education provides quality early childhood education
to children two to six years of age. Under the direction of Dominican’s School of Education, the center is staffed by certified early childhood educators and is located in a new facility at Dominican’s Priory Campus, 7200 W. Division Street. The facility includes individual play areas for each of its five classrooms as well as a large playground for all of the children. The center also features observation rooms with one-way mirrors to give teachers-in-training and education professionals the opportunity to observe activities without distracting children. The new facility, which opened in May 2006, was made possible by the generous donation of John P. Goedert, in honor of his late wife, Rose.
The center recently earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the nation’s leading organization of early childhood professionals. Only 8 percent of all preschools and early childhood programs in the country are accredited by the NAEYC.
“We’re proud to have earned the mark of quality from NAEYC, and to be recognized for our commitment to reaching the highest professional standards,” said Amanda Cardin, director of the center. “NAEYC Accreditation lets families in our
community know that children in our program are getting the best care and early learning experiences possible.”
To earn NAEYC Accreditation, the Rose K. Goedert Center went through an extensive self-study process, measuring the program and its services against NAEYC early childhood program standards and more than 400 related accreditation criteria. The program received NAEYC accreditation after an on-site visit by NAEYC assessors to ensure that the program meets each of the ten program standards. In the 25 years since NAEYC accreditation was established, it has become a widely recognized sign of high-quality early childhood education. More than 7,000 programs are currently accredited by NAEYC.
“The NAEYC accreditation system raises the bar for child care centers and other early childhood programs,” said Jerlean E. Daniel, executive director of NAEYC. “Having earned NAEYC accreditation is a sign that the Rose K. Goedert Center is a leader in a national effort to invest in high-quality early childhood education.”

There’s an old black and white photo that holds a special place in the hearts of the staff at Oak Park’s Pilgrim Community
Nursery School. In the snapshot, you see 29 eager-faced children flanked by five enthusiastic teachers. The group had no idea at the time about the legacy they were about to create.
That 1966 photo captures Pilgrim School’s very first classes taking a break from what was likely a typical lively morning inside the school.
Nearly 45 years later, much has changed. There are now 123 students and there are 13 teachers and staff members. And instead of one classroom, there are six. The school buzzes with activity both in the morning and the afternoon, and is busy even on Fridays, during Enrichment Classes and Tot-Care-Giver Classes.
Through the years, however, one thing has remained constant: the non-profit school’s core mission of providing a professionally prepared play environment that facilitates the physical, cogni-tive, social and emotional growth of each child, and strives to encourage each child’s uniqueness as well as his or her responsibility to get along with others.
Today, Pilgrim School is a part of the fabric of the Oak Park community, having been an
inspirational launching pad for hundreds of kids from across the area – some of whom have sent their own children to Pilgrim.
“I think the bond we’ve built here shows in how some of our earlier students have chosen to send their kids to us,” said School Director Ruth Martin, a 20-year veteran of the school. “It’s also a tribute to our teachers, several of whom have been here 10 and 20 years or more.”
While Pilgrim School operates out of Pilgrim Congregational Church, the school is secular, adding to the diversity of its student base. Pilgrim School welcomes students from Oak Park and all surrounding communities, including Chicago, Cicero, Forest Park, River Forest and Berwyn, among others.
Parents interested in determining whether Pilgrim School is right for their kids can learn more at 6:30 p.m., Monday, Jan. 10, 2011, during the school’s Enrollment Night. The event will be at the school, 460 W. Lake St., Oak Park. Additional information is also available at www.PilgrimSchool.com. Pilgrim School will also host its 31st Annual Cookie Walk & Raffle on Saturday, Dec. 4, 9-11 a.m.

A scension School will celebrate one hundred years of excellence in 2012. The milestone is uncommon in the current climate for
Catholic education and is not being taken lightly by the school community. “We are thrilled to be planning for this remarkable occasion,” says Mary Jo Burns, Principal of Ascension School for the past twelve years. “We recently launched our Action Plan, 2010-2015, through which we are inviting leaders in our Ascension family, and educators in the Oak Park River Forest area, to reflect on our role in the education community of the tri-village area and to help us position ourselves for a strong start for our second century. A major focus for the next twelve months will be the work determined by the Action Plan work groups in five specific areas: school climate, facilities, math, science and leadership.”
Ms. Burns continues, “We are committed to continued growth and to our role as a model school for outstanding Catholic education. Our faculty and staff are dedicated to providing the best foundation possible for our students to ensure that they become life-long learners. Our parents are actively engaged as our teaching partners and our parish is completely supportive of our mission. We know how fortunate we are at Ascension: rich in history and tradition, grounded in the spirit of
service, and blessed with the promise of a bright future.”
Ascension won the Blue Ribbon Award from the U.S. Department of Education in 2007 because of consistently high test scores and a strong and varied curriculum. All students participate in Spanish, art, music, computer and gym classes. Ascension’s extracurricular and co-curricular programs include orchestra, band, choir; interscho-lastic athletics (soccer, cross-country, basketball and volleyball); student leadership programs; Drama Club, Newspaper Club, Green Club and Art Club.
Registration for new students will begin in February 2011.

Montessori Children’s Community was founded out of profound respect for children and a devotion to educating
children for a peaceful world. Our community is committed to Montessori’s approach to education and operates on the principle of freedom within limits, respect for one’s self, for others and for the environment. We offer a calm and beautiful environment, where children are at the center of the learning process.
Recognized as a full Member by the American Montessori Society, and registered with the Illinois State Board of Education, our curriculum is a pri-mary program for children ages three to six. Field trips, a variety of special events and Spanish and Music Class, supplement our curriculum.
Our “Whole Child” approach embraces each child’s individual progress toward concentration, inner-discipline and self-confidence by allowing each child to reach their full potential at their own pace and level, under the guidance of a trained adult. This is facilitated through the use of educational materials in a wide range of areas.
Our environment is filled with beautiful, carefully chosen materials that progress developmentally from concrete expressions of concepts to more abstract representations. Our Montessori certified teachers with 20 plus years of (combined) experience pick materials in the classroom that encourage exploration and creativity.
Daily living activities give the children the skills to take care of themselves and their surroundings. Language materials help the child link everything in the world to the sounds and symbols of the spoken and written word. Mathematics materials introduce number and quantity concepts in a concrete manner. Physical and social science materials introduce the child to the concept of living and non-living things. Art, music and movement such as cooking class and yoga class let children develop their own creativity and acquire fine and gross motor skills, body awareness, balance and rhythm.
Located near the Brookfield Zoo, Montessori Children’s Community has limited spaces available for fall enrollment for children ages 3 to 6. For further information or to schedule a visit, please call 708-485-9542 or visit www.montessori-cc.org.

Both the Fenwick football team and St. Laurence scored all of their points in the fi rst half of Saturday’s Chicago Catho-lic League Prep Bowl playoff game, but it was the Friars who held on for a 28-18 victory at Morton West High School in Berwyn.
Fenwick quarterback Pat Hart had one of his best games of the season, complet-
ing just 5 of 11 passes, but three of which were touch-
down tosses in the fi rst half. The sopho-more also scored on a one-yard plunge to start the second quarter.
Hart connected with Ricky Sorren-
tino on a 39-yard touchdown pass and an 82-yarder that began as a screen pass. With two and a half minutes left in the fi rst half, Hart hit Quinn Murphy for a 46-yard touchdown pass. The play put the Friars (6-5) up 28-11 before St. Laurence’s Dan Collins scored on a 10-yard run with 22 seconds left in the half.
A safety and a 31-yard fi eld goal by Pete London with 1:24 left to go in the fi rst quarter had the Vikings trailing 7-5.
Both defenses tightened up in the sec-
ond half. The Friars picked off St. Lau-rence quarterback Alex Fisk (5-for-6, 39 yards) three times in the game.
In for the injured Zach Laszkiewicz, kicker Vince Faulk made all four of his PAT kicks for Fenwick.
After falling to Prairie Ridge 35-28 in the fi rst round of the Class 6A playoffs last week, the Friars are now shooting for playing in the Catholic League’s Prep Bowl title game to be held at Toyota Park on Nov. 19.

Huskies run to sixth place
Stapleton, Schrobilgen fi nish in Top 5
By BRAD SPENCERSports Editor
The OPRF boys cross-country team moved up three places from last season’s fi nish at the Class 3A State Meet held at Detweiller Park in Peoria on Saturday. The Huskies made it back-to-back Top 10 fi nishes by placing sixth overall this season with two runners fi nishing in the Top 5.
Weather and course conditions nearly called for an all-time state record to be broken at the meet, but Craig Virgin’s 13:50.6 fi nish in 1972 re-mained intact as Sandburg’s Lukas Verzbicas, the defending Class 3A champ, won the race in 13:54, 13 seconds better than his fi nish the year before.
OPRF’s Jack Stapleton and Malachy Schrobil-gen fi nished fourth and fi fth, respectively. Both runners fi nished with career-best times. Staple-ton, a senior, fi nished with a time of 14:31, while Schrobilgen, OPRF’s consistent top runner all season, came in a second behind.
York took home its 27th state title by placing fi rst as a team with a total score of 162. OPRF, which defeated York on the same course in mid-September, fi nished with a score of 232.
“This is the highest fi nish in my 30 years as the head cross country coach,” said OPRF coach Jose Sosa. “Jack and Malachy ran picture per-fect races, both sticking to their race strategies, and shadowing each other throughout the race. They moved very smoothly through a very tal-ented fi eld and came away with their best per-formances of their running careers.”
Other top fi nishers for the Huskies included seniors Peter Hogenson and Eunhwan Yoo. Ho-genson fi nished 77th with a time of 15:14, while Yoo placed 84th in 15:18.
Michael Gardner, who along with Schrobil-gen is a junior, also made a case for next season. Gardner fi nished 156th out of 208 runners with a time of 15:51. Senior Sam Fourman placed 191st in 16:15.
Girls cross-countryFenwick freshman Briana Daley fi nished 33rd
out of 208 runners at the Class 3A Girls Cross-country State Meet also held at Detweiller Park on Saturday. Daley fi nished with a time of 17:32. Fenwick sophomore Rebecca Steinmeyer fi n-ished 65th in 17:56.
OPRF freshman Erin Schrobilgen took 61st with a time of 17:53, accomplishing a personal goal of breaking the 18-minute mark. Schrobil-gen fi nished the Niles West Sectional the week before in 18:19.

Nudera said he and his family took a trip out east last spring when the discussion about moving on came up. “We’ve been in two different places for too long, splitting time here and there and going in too many directions. It really wears on you. My wife and I decided that it was just time.”
Nudera wouldn’t confi rm or deny a rumor he was leaving OPRF to take a coaching po-sition at the University of Chicago, a Divi-sion III school where his son Jim Jr. may be headed to play. “I’m not for certain what awaits me down the road, and right now Jim Jr. is focused on playing football for York High School,” he said.
It’s safe to say that in the last 12 years there have been more downs than ups for the OPRF football program. In the dozen-year span, the team appeared in the playoffs three times — losing in the fi rst round every time — and racked up nine losing seasons. The Huskies won no more than three games during eight of those 12 seasons. When it came to West Suburban (Silver) Conference play, OPRF earned just 18 victories in 72 games. At the onset of this season, the team had garnered a No. 21 ranking in the state but fi nished 2-7 overall and was winless (0-6) against conference competition.
What the win-loss records don’t show is a coach dedicated to his program. Nudera, who also spent time as a head football coach
at Elgin, Marist and Prospect high schools, as well as at Fenwick for wrestling, has gained respect and admiration from other coaches and administrators.
“Nobody can say Jim Nudera didn’t give 100-percent every day of the year to bet-ter the OPRF football program,” said John Stelzer, who has been OPRF’s athletics di-rector for the last four years and with the athletics department for seven. “For a vari-ety of reasons it just didn’t work out as he had planned and I think he realizes that. His integrity and passion will truly be missed.”
In 1999, Nudera came into OPRF with just two returning starters — Tim Steffen and Jay Addis — but the year before the Huskies had won the conference championship. While no conference title was obtained during Nud-
era’s time, the Huskies did make the playoffs in back-to-back seasons (2005, ’06). Wins over Lyons Township and Hinsdale Central dur-ing those seasons, Nudera said he’ll remem-ber the most from his 12 years on the job.
“Hinsdale Central was ranked third in 2005 and we beat them 10-7,” he said while acknowledging a photo of the game up in his offi ce. “That’s a game I will never forget.”
Nudera also won’t soon forget the game in which his Huskies faced his son and York earlier this season. Despite losing 36-14 to the Dukes, the game was a family event. Nudera and members of his family met Jim Jr. and his sister Brailey, a cheerleader at York, at midfi eld for the coin toss before the game. “That one won’t be forgotten either,” said Nudera.
Stelzer met with OPRF Principal Nathan-iel Rouse on Monday to begin the process of fi nding a replacement for Nudera.
“We’re going to look for someone who would be a good fi t for this school and this community, aside from having the obvious football knowledge, that goes without say-ing,” said Stelzer, who added that promoting a coach from within the program is a pos-sibility.
“We certainly want to do our due dili-gence with in-house candidates,” he said. “There are a few potential candidates in the building and there’s a commitment from the district to promote from within, but having said that we want to fi nd the best possible person for this program and won’t limit our-selves in that regard.”
BBe careful what you wish for,” replied John Stelzer after I jokingly asked the OPRF ath-letic director when was a good time for me to interview for
the head football coaching position, vacated last week by Jim Nudera after 12 years at the helm. I knew exactly what Stelzer meant.
What many people don’t understand is that coaching isn’t as easy as it looks. A coach can only do so much. He can spend every waking day teaching and preaching, but if the players don’t execute and/or the competition is bet-ter, then there is no winning and the reward can only be measured in effort.
After going 41-69 with just three winning sea-sons in his dozen years at the post, Nudera rides into the sunset banking on the effort he coached out of the hundreds of players once under his tutelage — the victories were too few to have any real value. His reward isn’t a trophy, but an appre-ciative handshake from a former player.
“I think if you asked several coaches, you’d get the same answer,” said Nudera last week. “Having
a former player who is now a mature adult and outstanding citizen come up to you and say ‘thanks’ is very gratify-ing.”
Measure a good high school coach however you want, but if you’re bas-ing it solely on wins and losses, then you have missed a key point: It’s the high school level. I’m not saying wins and losses don’t mean anything — of course they do. I’m saying they are only a part of the equation when it comes to measuring a coach’s perfor-mance at this level.
You see, high school coaches who pour their souls into their work don’t fail. Nudera didn’t fail at turning
a high school football program around, but he didn’t succeed either. What Nudera did do was make a difference in many young lives. For that, all fans, students, players and parents of the foot-ball program should be grateful. Say goodbye. Say thanks for the effort.
Nudera, only the 18th head football coach in OPRF’s history, also had the stones to say it’s time for someone else to have a shot at the gig. He’s not
being forced out. He leaves with the respect of his colleagues if not the majority of past and present parents.
“I don’t use the word integrity too often when describing some-one,” said Stelzer, “but Jim Nudera personifi es it. He is truly one of the fi n-est people I have been associated with, an excel-lent coach and, more importantly, a wonderful teacher.”
If Stelzer is de-scribing the outgoing head football coach in this fashion, can you imag-ine what he’ll think of the new head football coach?

Last week, Jim Nudera sat in the stands and watched his son play football. He was a normal father cheering on his oldest of four children, Jim Jr., as the senior quarterback tried to lead York
High School to a playoff victory. “I was just a regular father watching his
son play football,” he remembered, “and it was a great feeling.”
Such moments have either been rare or nonexistent over the years for Nudera, who decided enough was enough last week and resigned as OPRF High School’s head football coach after 12 seasons and a 41-69 record. Nudera cited the need to explore other opportunities and to spend more time with his family as the main reasons for his decision. He said he will continue to work as a teacher in the high school’s Driver and Physical Education programs.
“A tremendous amount of emotion went into this decision,” said Nudera, who noted that he’s been on the sidelines of football games since 1970 when he was a pee-wee player himself. “If you’re a football coach then you have to be committed to the pro-fession. I missed out on a lot of things. It’s time to come home now and fi nish that project I told my wife I would fi nish three or so years ago.”
