Wildcat News For YOU! May 2015 CONGRATULATIONS to our students, faculty and staff at Mater Dei, St. Wendel and St. Philip for being named four star schools by the Indiana Department of Education! This is the third year in a row that Mater Dei has been recognized for outstanding achievement by the State of Indiana. Congratulations also go out to the Mater Dei Supermileage Team. They placed first in two categories and also earned a third place at the Shell Eco-Marathon competition in Detroit. This year’s team carried on the winning tradition in style! May Day is always a special day as we recognize our senior class, but this year we also thanked all the donors to the Full of Grace Campaign. You, the future students at Mater Dei, will benefit from the generosity of these donors in the new facilities and projects. Honors Day, Mass with the Bishop, Dedication of the Prayer Garden and of course the annual May Day games all took place Friday, May 1. The graduating class of 2015 was offered over $9 million in scholarships. They will be attending 25 colleges in seven states. Friday, May 15 is Baccalaureate. Commencement is Sunday, May 17. You will be saying goodbye to the 8th graders at your school soon. We are looking forward to seeing many of them here at Mater Dei this fall. 152 students have applied for admission. We know they will bring enthusiasm and talent to our school. Eighth graders, please see the important dates under upcoming events. The Mater Dei Dance Marathon for Riley Children’s Hospital was a tremendous success! The total this year was $33,554.00!! We know the students that attended had a great time for a great cause. Our Wildcat athletic teams are gearing up for conference and sectional play. The boys golf team won the Warrick Invitational and will compete in the city meet on May 9 followed by SIAC on June 1 and sectionals June 5. The track teams have the city meet May 8, SIAC May 14 and girls sectional May 19 followed by the boys on May 21. Girls tennis sectional is May 20.
