Her topic is \Recruitment and Retention of Students\ and deals with pro- grams and efforts to boost enrollment in Cath- olic elementary and secondary schools. Sister Cimino's talk will be presented on Tuesday, April 8, at the Jacob Javits Center. Since leaving Nazareth Academy in August, 1987, Sister Cimino has been Associate Direc- tor of the Catholic School Administrators As- sociation of New York State. • • • Students at Nazareth Academy last month began a year-long effort to promote Students Against Drunk Driving's (SADD) \Challenge '88: Celebration of Life\ campaign. The campaign seeks to raise students' aware- ness of the dangers of drunk driving through a variety of events, including an alcohol-free fundraising party and \Absent Person Day)' when 20 volunteers spent a silent day dressed in black to act as living reminders of the con- sequences of accidents due to drunken drivers. During an opening assembly, organizers also described SADD's \Contract for Life,\ an -agreement between students and parents. The agreement requires that: students and parents discuss the dangers of drunk driving; students call home for a ride rather than drive drunk or ride with an intoxicated driver; parents save any recriminations for later, and never, drive while intoxicated. ~ More than 40 students participate in Nazareth's SADD chapter, which was founded in 1986. The group is headed by Karen Don- ner, student president, and Chris Yantz, vice president. Faculty moderator is Sister Marlene Pane. Father Harold B. Gardner, CSB, principal of Aquinas Institute, has announced the crea- tion scholarships for Aquinas students who show artistic ability and achievement. The scholarships, which will be available for the 1988/89 school year, were created through a bequest from the estate of Francis J. Santini, a 194S graduate of Aquinas. The scholarship committee is in the process of developing criteria for the scholarships. The committee will announce information about application procedures on April 1. Neighbors Rope-climbing and an obstacle course were on the agenda as 40 members of Aquinas In- stitute's Student Council and their faculty ad- visors gathered at Scottsville's BOCES Center for a \Down to Earth\ leadership weekend last month. The object of including physical as well as mental challenges in the weekend's activities was to build community spirit and encourage grouR problem solving, according to or- ganizers. \We depended on our own strengths to push us along, and also depended on the support of the group;' explained Loit Lagiewski, a stu- dent participant. \We gained trust, friends and a good time:' Nearly 40 members of the Catholic Daugh- ters of the Americas, Court Nativity of Our Blessed Virgin Mary #931, observed CDA sun- day with a procession, Mass and a reception October 18. Earlier in October, the court wel- comed 10 new members at another Mass. | • • • Ann Parsons this month offered fifth- graders at St. Theodore's School in Gates a \\''chance to develop a new sensitivity and aware- ness of people with disabilities. During Par- sons' visit to the school, sponsored by TR1ADD (To Reach and Inform about De- velopmental Disabilities) and the Genesee Val- ley Office of Social Ministry, she shared her personal experience of accepting, coping and living with blindness. • • • Mother of Sorrows School has expanded its curriculum this year td include a Spanish course for seventh-grade students. The students wui be able to continue the course in the eighth grade, thus completing the equivalent of a high school freshman course. The class is taught by Ana Coronal, a native of Uruguay, South America, who also teaches at St. Lawrence, Blessed Sacrament and the Berlitz School of Language.
