8 Signs you go to RoncalliBy: Clara Dramm

You know you go to Roncalli when…

1. you don’t know the words to the school song, but you know “Oh when the Jets go soaring in!”

2. many of your friends are from all over northeastern Wis-

3. you literally pray for snow days.

The chant “Oh When The Jets Go Soaring In” has become a tradition for almost every football and basketball game. The lyrics, based on the classic tune, “Oh When The Saints go Marching in”, have been altered by various schools to fit their mascot. Although the exact history is unknown for our school, it is thought that it started 6-7 years ago during a game when some students stood up and started singing the song. It has evolved since then. Evidence for this evolution is shown through Flight Crew’s newest shirt!

The lyrics of the school song were composed by Gene Heier, the first band teacher at Roncalli (the band/choir room is named after him), and the melody is based on the song “Dominique” by The Singing Nun. Although students may not know the lyrics, everyone certainly enjoys it when the Roncalli Pep Band plays it at various games or school events. It is estimated that a band member plays the school song about 200 times during his or her time at Roncalli. Next time the band plays our school song, try singing along! (the lyrics are in the gym by the scoreboard)

Roncalli students come from various cities and towns in this area, including Manitowoc, Two Rivers, Kiel, Chilton, Whitelaw, Valders, Sheboygan, Howards Grove, Newton, Mishicot, Kewaunee, Algoma, Francis Creek, Whitelaw, Branch, Chilton, Brillion and St Nazianz. Luckily, Roncalli is staffed with great bus drivers that transport students every day!

Don’t forget our international students! Roncalli is proud to have students from China, Thailand, Hungary, Slovakia, and Poland!

Despite the fact that Wisconsin regularly blesses us with tons of snow, school cancellations and shortenings are rare, even when the weather conditions are

pretty bad. Nothing stops Roncalli! (Say a prayer to St Eulalia of Merida, the patron saint of snow and inclement weather, anyway.)

8. you get asked by public school kids why you pay for the “same” education.

7. you know more about the 1692 Salem Witchcraft Trials than the average person/scholar.

5. you get more excited than public school kids about Friday not because it’s the weekend but because it’s a jeans day.

6. you have mixed feelings after meeting someone from a rival school.

4. one of the best weeks of the whole year is Homecoming week. At the football game, school spirit is soaring through the student section. The football team is hyped up, playing with passion and motivation. The dance team kills it in their half time routine. The marching band shows their hard work from summer camp with their field show.

Whether we win or lose, it is fun night, and people come back strong for the Homecoming dance the next day. Student Government puts an incredible amount of work into planning the dance, and it ends up being A Night To Remember! The rest of the week is intense too. [Friendly] competition ensues with hallway decorating, theme days, and games. Somehow, the seniors usually always end up winning in the long run…

Ever since the school opened, Roncalli has strong rivalries with Valders, Two Rivers, and Manitowoc Lutheran. Even though they are probably totally nice people, it seems to be normal to have mixed feelings with someone from these schools just because he or she goes there. This makes these games, no matter what sport, extremely interesting and fun to watch. It is hard to lose to these teams because of the history of the rivalry, but Roncalli is known for great sportsmanship.

Of course we are excited about the weekend, but we are most excited to wear jeans! Professional dress, including not wearing jeans, has been part of the dress code since the school started. Generally because school is a work environment, Roncalli believes students should dress according to the environment and what you will do in this environment.

The freshmen and sophomores may not understand, but the upperclassmen can look back on the times of studying The Crucible with Mr. Jahnke! We sure do miss you, Chief!

Roncalli is a close-knit community with aspects that are not found at public schools. “The mission of RHS is to educate in the Catholic traditions of spiritual growth, life-long service, and academic excellence.” Although the same classes are provided, Roncalli is truly different than public schools.

No matter what the subject, Catholic/Christian philosophy, beliefs, and heritage are somehow incorporated. Roncalli provides students with incredible opportunities to follow their dreams and grow in their faith, so they can live a life of purpose according to our savior, Jesus Christ. 2

I recently interviewed Zachary Schroder about his part-time job at Subway. Here's what he had to say about his experience:

Why did you decide to get a part time job? I got a job at Subway in the summer of my sophomore year. I got a job so that I could have a source of money. I also wanted a job so I could start to pay for stuff that I wanted instead of always asking parents for money. Out of all the jobs you could have gotten, why did you choose Subway? I went to Subway for a job because my family and the owner of this subway are great friends and I knew my chances of getting a job here were greater than any other place.

What are your favorite parts about your work? My favorite part about work is working with my friends and making new friends. I have made numerous friends from other schools as well as my Roncalli friends and I really enjoy seeing them when I work.

How has having a job influenced your school life and overall life? Having a job made me realize that jobs are very tiring. I am starting to understand why parents are always so tired and angry when they come home. Even though getting a paycheck every two weeks is nice it is very tiring and stressful. Have any funny / interesting stories from work? A funny story that has happened to me at Subway was one time I was working and I was making someone's sub. After I asked them what they wanted on their sub I asked “Do you want it toasted” they said yes so I grabbed the sub, and I dropped it on the floor. Me and the customer both looked at each other for a good 5 seconds and then we both had a little laugh. I thought it would be embarrassing but, the customer was very nice and then I continued to remake his sub. How is your job already helping you and how do you think your job at Subway will help you / benefit you in the future? My job at subway has helped me to be on time. Being on time is very important in the future for all careers. I also believe that Subway has helped me learn to be respectful and nice to everybody that comes into Subway. I try and smile and make small conversation while I make each person’s sub.

Video Game Club was started a few years back by a group of game lovers. It’s still going today and meets every Thursday at 3:15 in Mr. Garceau’s room. There are a varying number of participants, with a core group of about 8 people that are usually there. The group is organized currently by Peter Heili and Nicholas Fessler. The games played vary from day to day. There is a group Snapchat where most of the members talk and vote on games, which are selected by the organizers. Currently, VGC just finished up Shrek 2 on GameCube(A boisterous adventure with a lot of arguing) and now they will be moving on to more Wii games. Other games played include games for Nintendo Switch, Gamecube, Wii, and Wii U. In honor of the Winter Olympics, the Video Game Club will be holding its own Winter Olympics within various Wii Sports games. Various games are being considered, including Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics and Winter Sports: The Ultimate challenge. The club is often one of the loudest in school. Games are usually of a competitive nature, and with competition comes strife. It is almost always good-natured, though, with plenty of laughing mixed in with the yelling. The Video Game club is open to everyone if you wish to join, just come any Thursday. No need to ask, just show up and you will fit right in.

Veganism: More Than Just a Diet “Wait you’re vegan? Is it hard? Do you miss meat?” Answering these types of questions is not a problem but instead it’s a reminder that many people are curious about veganism. Giving up food that you grow up eating or are surrounded by, is an intriguing subject, but also too alien and restricting to consider for some. It doesn’t help that the vegan/vegetarian lifestyle is filled with stereotypes and assumptions about one’s diet. Here are a couple students I interviewed about being vegan or vegetarian:

What advice would you give for someone who is about to make a switch to a plant based diet?

“Don’t feel like you need to make the transition overnight. It is a very big decision, and you want to make sure you are sure of what you’re doing. It took me a few months to transition meat out of my diet, and over the past year I have progressively stopped eating other animal products like dairy and eggs; it’s not just something you can just all of the sudden change in one day.” Macy Dueno

What would you say to people who poke fun at veganism?

“I’m guessing that most of you have seen a few angry vegans on the internet before. They definitely get the most exposure out of any vegans in today’s media, and nobody likes to be harshly critiqued for their eating habits. We get it. However, most of us are just very passionate about our lifestyle, and like to encourage those around us to join us. I can guarantee you that not all of us are terrible people. .Chances are, we’re not much different from you. Before anything, we are people. Aubrie Miller

Know or have a reason to give up meat, because it will not work if you just decide without any reason. Do research about everything, about what you’re going to need, about what other food you can eat that is a “replacement” for meat. Take everything slowly. Anthony Brady

“A really common retort that people make in regards to my dietary choices is that it is very unhealthy to live without meat . Although it really depends on the person, vegetarianism is, on average, better for the 21st century human body. Vegetarians have a much longer life expectancy, a lower risk of cardiovascular disease, many cancers, stroke, and type-2 diabetes. Along with these personal benefits, the best way to live life is by harboring love and compassion for all sentient living things, especially those subjected to poor and cruel conditions of the modern-day factory farm.

Pilot Staff Wanders Through Little Seen Places

Roncalli students are always wondering about places in school they generally have not seen. In this issue of the Pilot students from our staff had the opportunity to look around in some unseen academic areas.

The Brothers’ residence is a building within Roncalli High School which is no longer being used for its name but instead, is being used for office space for the staff. The residence was not built until after the school was finished in 1965 and housed about 9-10 Christian Brothers at one time, and the last year only about 3 resided within the residence. Currently the residence is used for meetings, various boards, committees, socials for the staff, benefactors, and auction storage. When Mrs. Kraemer started working at Roncalli about 23 years ago, the development office was already located in the Brothers’ residence because there were fewer brothers teaching and living at Roncalli at that time. The ladies that work within the development office like the space according to Mrs. Kraemer. She said, “I like the fact that we have this space to work and also it is very accessible to donors and visitors who come to Roncalli. The only thing I dislike is that we are so far from where the students gather and attend classes”. When the residence was built in 1966, students were not able to enter this area as it was considered off limits. This a first for Mrs. Kraemer was very difficult as she attended Roncalli. She said, “So you can imagine when I started that I felt I shouldn't be here. That feeling is no longer with me of course and I feel fortunate to be working

at Roncalli and working with a group of wonderful people”.

Although we are all relatively familiar with the Brother’s Residence, many are unaware of the Sister’s

residence, located on the opposite side of the school. The residences are nearly identical in

layout and capacity; the only difference is that the Sisters’ residence has a chapel, and the

Brothers’ does not. This space is a beautiful area that unfortunately now sits empty. When Roncalli first opened in 1965, neither the Brothers’ or Sisters’ residences were completed. The Sisters’ residence had not even been started yet. The original staff of Sisters who taught at Roncalli were living at a local convent until their living

arrangements were completed. One of these original Sisters was named

Sister Elizabeth Ann. She worked as the first vice principal, and was responsible for the girls’

section of the school. Sister Elizabeth Ann came to Roncalli from a school in Escanaba, Michigan. In

addition to being the vice principal, she also taught Latin. The Sisters lived relatively simple lives, and therefore did

not need luxurious accommodations. The residence has a kitchen, a chapel, and several bedrooms. These rooms have

conjoined bathrooms attached to each. Not every bathroom is the same, however. Some have shower stalls, others have bathtubs. Some

bedrooms have writing desks, or armoires. Some only have a bed, cabinets, and a sink. The sisters didn’t mind the differences though. They were happy just

to be there and teach the students. The Sisters’ residence has sat vacant for several years. Currently it is being used for storage and occasional meetings. In the future, however, things are looking up. Mr. Stelzer says that it may be used for offices, or maybe even for housing international students. It would take time and financial resources to get the residence up and running for use, but well worth it in the end.

Liturgy Series Offers a Unique Opportunity to Celebrate Mass

By: Matt LeVene

Throughout the year we participate in the traditional Catholic liturgy, but this school year we have our very own liturgy series. We all know the traditional mass, but almost everyone was brand new to at least one aspect of the liturgy series. The liturgy series consists of a teaching mass, Latin mass, an Ad Orientem mass, and a Byzantine Rite Divine Liturgy. After experiencing the different masses many people had questions about the different variations that we celebrated, with help from Mr. Geiger all of your Liturgy series questions are answered!

Why? It is important to remember that "Catholic" means "universal." We are a church that is not just located in the United States and limited to our customs, but rather a church that is vibrant with culture and dripping with rich history. The liturgy series allows us to celebrate and experience this history.

Where? Three of the masses will or have been held in our excellent Fine Arts Center. The Latin mass was held at St. Francis of Assisi on Waldo. The masses are held at different sites for practical needs, but also to emphasize the point that we are celebrating something special.

Impact of the Liturgy Series Katya Konopacki, a junior here at Roncalli, says “The Latin mass in particular has impacted my growth in my faith life, it allows me to experience the mass in a whole new way. Being unable to understand the Latin makes the mass even more intriguing and beautiful. I think it’s important to take ourselves out of routine periodically to experience God in a new way. Not knowing exactly what is going on can be a little vulnerable, but that gives God an opportunity to work in our hearts.”

Who? The presiders or priests that we will have or have had for these different masses are; Fr. David Beaudry did the teaching mass. The celebrant for the Latin Mass was Canon Antoine Boucheron of the Institute of Christ the Sovereign King, the Ad Orientem mass will be celebrated by Father Mark Mleziva, and the Byzantine Divine Liturgy will be celebrated by the HolyResurrection Monks in St. Nazianz.

Pursuing a Degree in the Fine Arts rt, Music, Dance: chances are sometime in your high

school career you have taken one of these classes. Most kids dabble with the Fine Arts and go on to pursue more commonplace degrees, but what about those who take the chance to live the creative life? Those who go onto compose, paint and perform; who go onto teach and design. There are the UW’s and Technical Colleges of course, but there are private schools which specialize and focus on the arts: like Yale, Pratt and Julliard. Roncalli’s Fine Arts teachers went to a wide variety of schools. Mr. Woodcock went to Silver Lake College, Mr. Birr went to Saint Norbert College, and Mr. Van Sickle went to UW-Eau Claire. Many things drove our Fine Arts teachers to choose this path in life. Mr. Birr says, “I started in Religious Studies, but coming to the realization God had other plans for me, I switched to Music Education.”

A Although teaching is a very popular profession in the art and music world, as Mr. Van Sickle puts it, “Music and visual art are such an essential part of education. I want-ed to help students become great musicians because that can be such a positive influence and ful-filling part of their lives.” There are many more options out there, for example Graphic Design, Museum Management and things like Industrial Design. Now most UW’s and Technical Colleges offer degrees along with the Gen Eds, but there are also local private institutions such as the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design, The Art Institute of Wisconsin and The Madison Media Institute. These, like almost all colleges, offer pre-college programs that will be worth credits or just the amazing learning experiences. There are so many options out there, and if you're looking to pursue an education or career in the Fine Arts, talk to one of Roncalli’s teachers today!

“The driving force to become a music teacher was likely the motivat-ed teachers I worked with from grade school through college. And the fact that working with music was always rewarding.” -Mr. Birr

In Depth With President Stelzer By: Joshua Howard

“I started at Roncalli as a social studies and history teacher, coach, and admissions counselor. Later I was asked to become our Admissions Coordinator/Teacher. Eventually I

accepted the job of development director which led me toward being part of an administra ve team.” -President Stelzer

What are a few things that you do on a day-to-day basis or routine here at Roncalli as President? In a few words, I am often times asked to be the leader of our school in the larger community which includes parishes, other schools, the Diocese, alumni, parents and former parents. 80% of our revenue is from tuition and fundraising. I spend a great deal of effort making sure we have resources like facilities, financial aid, and trans-portation. I also work together with many others to provide opportunities for students to grow in their faith. I feel blessed to be able to work with young people, share my faith, and give back to a school that continues to help students grow academically and spiritually.

I know you’ve seen President Stelzer around school at some point throughout your time here at Roncalli. But have you ever wondered what exactly he does on daily basis or his history here at Roncalli and as an educator is? Well I recently spoke with our President to find the answers!

How do you handle stress and pressure? I handle stress through my prayer life and by relying upon my family and co-workers to problem solve and to provide per-spective. I have learned over the years that without relying on God and others, I pretty much spin my wheels and cannot be successful

What advice would you give to a new teacher/student on his or her first year? My advice to new teachers would be to put kids first, allow yourself time to get to know students and their needs. Also, do not be afraid to make mistakes , but then learn from them! Try to show patience , we cannot always be sure what is going on in our student’s lives.

How do you build a positive school culture or climate? Building a positive school culture takes a community. I believe it begins with identifying your values and then building from those values….I would like our culture to include evident signs that we are Christians in our words and actions. I would like to have school be a safe place where kids feel empowered to be involved, invited to being part of our community while openly sharing our Faith in Jesus Christ. I would like the adults to be in a position of trust and for each student feel welcome.

What’s your favorite part about your job? “The students and watching them grow in their faith thru service as well as watching them grow academically. I think one thing about students after they've graduated they come back and maybe they don't always realize what has been done for them when they're here. They tend to take things for granted but when they get out of college and into the work world they find out what a giving staff and faculty we have and what a culture that

has been developed that helps students really achieve at a high level I think that sometimes hindsight gives you a little bit of perspective. It brings me pleasure and comfort knowing were also doing our jobs.”

Fortnite, A Game For Everyone With over 45 million players, Fortnite has been one of the most successful games in recent history. In just the first 2 weeks of 2018, the game picked up over 10 million users. Ever since launching the free-to-play Battle Royale mode, Fortnite has been able to continue its growth by incredible numbers each month. In Fortnite: Battle Royale, the last person/team remaining wins. In each game, 100 players fly over an island with locations such as farms, cities, etc. At these locations, the players may find weapons to defend themselves, and other useful items. After a few minutes, a storm will arrive. The only way to stay safe from the storm is staying in the circle. This safe circle will move and continue to get smaller and smaller. The goal of each game is to be the last team remaining. Along with its worldwide success, Fortnite has made its way into the hands of many students at Roncalli, so I decided to ask a few of them some questions about Fortnite.

Matt LeVene Other than playing the game, how else have you experienced the greatness of Fortnite? “Fortnite gives an avenue to branch out and play and forge friendships with people you

normally would not associate with. Also, it gives you something to bond over while talking to your friends. Fortnite helps bring people together!”

It is most fun to play with friends. The best thing about playing with each other online is that it’s an easy and convenient way to talk to spend time with each other. Fortnite provides an entertaining way to spend your evening. Whether you’re playing alone or with friends, it’s always a good time.

12

Hunter Borys What are the benefits of playing with your friends on Fortnite?

“The biggest benefit of playing with your friends on Fortnite is that even though it is just a video game it creates memories and moments that go beyond the game itself. Events that happened in game are talked and laughed about at school and weeks afterward. It also really is a game that anyone can play. Since you play as a team of four it's really easy to teach someone to play without losing continuously because of that new player. The team aspect of the game is another reason it's great to play with friends. In-game play forms real bonds and connections between people who ordinarily wouldn't connect. It's also extremely easy for a group of friends to decide to play Fortnite for an hour from each of their houses while it may be harder to plan a larger time consuming activity.”

The Roncalli Scouting Report Keeping you updated with the latest athlete reports, school news and more! We are dedicated to giving athletes the maximum exposure possible!!!! Follow us on Twitter @rscoutingreport and at roncalliscoutingreport.weebly.com to stay updated with latest posts. This special winter edition of the Scouting Report is mainly dedicated to getting an inside look at a couple of the basketball coaches here at Roncalli. BONUS: Special Features from Whitney Andrastek and Aubree Boettcher

What made you get into coaching and how long have you been coaching? (Any sport not just basketball) “I wanted to get a different view of the picture. As a former college basketball player, you may not see a lot of things that coaches are seeing on the court. Having the opportunity to coach for the first time, will help me get a better perspective of the game.” - Coach Stevens Alexis

What are the most important character building qualities to teach your players? “There are a lot of character building qualities we are trying to teach. Work ethic, discipline, perseverance, leadership skills and teamwork just to name a few. These are qualities that will benefit them for the rest of their lives.” - Coach Ned Jacquart

“I've been doing gymnastics going on 11 years, I currently can't practice or compete due to recovering from knee surgery this past summer. I first got involved with gymnastics when I was really young through family open gyms at the YMCA and one of the coaches told me I should start taking classes. My favorite memory of gymnastics would probably be placing at Nationals. The traumatic/now funny memory I have is last season when I fractured my tibial plateau and people in the bleachers told me they heard the crack. Which is pretty funny now since it's gross. For college I'd like to go to UW-Stout for either Criminal Justice or Athletic Training.” - Whitney Andrastek

“What made me do gymnastics is when I would watch college gymnastics on TV, also when I was younger I would go with Hannah Kubsh to her YMCA meets and it made me want to join. I have been doing gymnastics for about 6 years. A funny story that I have is when I was competing on floor at a meet I broke my foot and no one believed me, so I still had to compete on beam after that. The college I will be attending is UW-Oshkosh and majoring in elementary education.” - Aubree Boettcher

More and more students are bringing lunches from home, and there seems to be a variety of reasons for doing so. Some do it because they enjoy making their own food, some do it for savings, some because they want their own healthy and unique options for lunch, some because they have been doing it since they were in elementary school, and some just because they simply prefer it.

Macy Dueno, senior, said she enjoys bringing lunch from home because she gets to put what she wants in her lunch everyday so she is always excited for lunch and what she’s going to eat that day. Abigail Kuechmann, a junior, brings lunches that fit her vegan lifestyle. She also brings lunches from home because she can easily incorporate her vegan diet with her Filipino culture to bring food she really enjoys. Georgia Stangel, a senior, has multiple food allergies, including many fruits; bringing a lunch from home insures a safe and personal meal for lunch everyday.

Also, a growing number of students have food allergies. They may choose vegan, vegetarian, or gluten free diets. Thus, they bring a lunch from home that ensures that everything they have to eat that day fits their meal requirements. Students who choose this option also say that bringing lunches from home does not have to be boring. They enjoy the variety of lunches they can bring. They all agree that it is the right choice for them, and it improves their school day knowing they have a lunch they will enjoy.

Lunches from Home

I bring lunches from home because I prefer organic options that fulfill my health needs. –Alicia Meyer

Winter Publications Team The Pilot is created by students who are in Mr. Woodcock”s 3rd Block “A” Day Publications class. We meet in the Brother’s House, if you have any ideas for upcoming issues of the Pilot, Yearbook, or just want to stop by and see our class please do. We are always looking for Photographers and Story Writers. The class is offered for the full year, or can be taken as a semester class.
