Parents' Club
Chairs Report -
Back to Top
As we head to the finish line of
another successful school year,
I would like to thank my fellow
Parent Board volunteers for
their commitment and time to
Georgetown Prep. Our
community and our boys are
fortunate to have so many
dedicated and caring parents.
There are too many individuals
to thank by name but I would
like to say a special thank you
to our “retiring” Co-Chair Terri
Smith. Terri has been
actively involved with the
school since 2001 and served
Prep in so many ways over the
past 11 years. Terri, you
will be missed.
The Gala on May 5th will kick
off our final month of
activities. Our spring
sports teams look to finish
strong, our boys are studying
hard for both AP and final
exams, and of course we have our
Class of 2012 graduating on
May 26th.
Congratulations to our
graduating seniors and their
parents!
This is the last report for the
year. If anyone has
suggestions or questions
concerning the Parents' Club,
please do not hesitate to reach
out to us. We look forward
to seeing everyone in August.
Have a safe and wonderful
summer! Steve Spencer

It is hard
to believe
that in a
few short
weeks, we
will be
parents of
Georgetown
Prep
graduates!
Through all
of their
in-class and
extracurricular
experiences
here at
Prep, our
boys have
matured, and
our hope is
that they
are well on
their way to
becoming Men
for Others.
We wish all
of them the
best as they
finish up
papers and
exams, and
we
congratulate
them on
their
graduation.
By
now,
everyone
should have
the
invitations,
tickets, and
announcements
for our
sons’
graduation
events on
May 25th
and
May
26th.
Thanks for
the hard
work of the
networking
chairs from
freshman and
sophomore
years -- and
for all the
hosts of our
parent
socials.
It has been
nice getting
to know many
of you over
these last
two years,
and we have
enjoyed
serving as
networking
co-chairs.
We look
forward to
future “Past
Parent”
events!

I believe we
are all in
shock that
our boys are
almost done
with their
junior year.
Gail and I
appreciate
all the
support we
have gotten
throughout
the year
from all of
you.
We still
have a few
more fun
events
planned for
May, so hope
some of you
can join us.
There will
be no more
formal
meetings for
our class
the rest of
this year.
PROM
HIGHTLIGHTS:
Hopefully,
all of your
guys had a
great time
at the Prom
and enjoyed
the amazing
job that the
Post Prom
committee
did in
creating a
successful
party for
our boys and
their dates.
A special
shout out to
Donna
Leanos, a
parent in
our class,
who was one
of the
co-chairs of
that party.
The juniors
and seniors
I talked to
the next day
all said
they had a
terrific
time. We
were
notified
that we are
missing one
very nice
Adolpho
tuxedo
jacket.
Someone must
have
mistakenly
taken it
from the
Marriott.
Please, if
you don't
mind, take a
quick look
to see if
you have a
jacket with
George
Melby's name
on the
inside label
and a
Marriott
business
card in the
inside
pocket.
Since the
Melbys' own
the tux,
they'd be
most
grateful if
it was
returned.
If by some
chance you
find you
have it,
please
contact
Louise Melby
at
l.melby@verizon.net.
You will
make her one
very happy
mother!
LADIES WINE
AND CHEESE
NIGHT:
Kassi Shott,
mother of
Tommy, has
kindly
offered to
host a girls
night out on
May
9th
(Wednesday)
from 7:00 -
9:30 p.m.
Her home is
a beautiful
place to
gather for a
glass of
wine or two.
We will
collect a
small
donation
that night
to help
Kassi supply
the
beverages
and light
finger food
for the
night.
Our last
wine event
proved to be
a lot of
fun. Come
join us for
laughs and
friendship
as we steel
ourselves
for AP and
final exams.
Please
RSVP
to Kassi by
May 7th,
so she knows
how much
food to get.
Hope to see
you there!
Kassi's
email is
kassishott@aol.com.

Can you
believe our
sons are at
the end of
their
Sophomore
year?
Where
has the time
gone?
We
would like
thank all
the parents
who
supported
the sport
teams,
attended the
networking
meetings and
socials, and
helped with
Post Prom.
It has been
a privilege
serving as
your Parent
Networking
representatives
during our
boys
Freshmen and
Sophomore
years.
We
are excited
to announce
that we have
a wonderful
group of
women coming
in to be our
Junior and
Senior
Networking
representatives:
Andrea
Taylor,
Diane
Terpeluk,
and Stacy
Carr.
We
know they
will do an
exceptional
job
representing
our class.
We would
also like to
give a
special
thanks to
Mr. Patrick
Gallagher,
Director of
College
Counseling,
who spoke at
our April
Networking
meeting.
Mr.
Gallagher
did a
tremendous
job
answering
all of
our
questions
about how
we, together
with Prep,
can help
prepare our
boys for the
college
application
process.
Have a fun
and
memorable
summer!

It is
really hard
to believe,
but we are
fast
approaching
the close of
our freshman
year at
Prep!
It truly has
been a
wonderful
year, with
many new
friendships
made among
the boys and
parents.
We want to
thank you
for your
remarkable
support and
enthusiasm
this year.
We think the
overwhelming
turnout for
the
“Community
of Concern”
event really
demonstrated
the
commitment
we all have
made to work
together to
make the
Prep
experience
something
our boys
will always
cherish.
A
special
thank-you
goes to Mr.
DeCaro for
organizing a
memorable
freshman
retreat for
our sons
April 25th,
26th, and
27th.
The boys
were able to
experience
and see “God
in All
Things” as
they hiked
along the
Appalachian
Trail, and
the weekend
was capped
off with a
special Mass
for freshmen
and
families.
Our last
parent
networking
meeting will
be held on
Tuesday,
May
1st.
As always,
please come
at 7:00 p.m.
for
socializing.
Our meeting
will start
at 7:30 p.m.
in the Figge
Foyer, and
our guest
speakers
will be Meg
Frazier,
Academic
Dean, and
Patrick
Gallagher,
Director of
College
Counseling.
You don’t
want to miss
this
meeting!
Mrs. Frazier
and Mr.
Gallagher
will talk
with us
about how
and when to
begin the
college
quest and
how to keep
our sons
focused in
the moment
and be ready
for a
successful
10th grade.
As
we look
forward to
next year,
please feel
free to
share with
us your
ideas for
networking
events.
We hope to
hold a
parents’
social very
early in the
school year.
Networking
meetings
will resume
in October,
and will be
held on the
second
Tuesday of
each month
for the
sophomore
class.

Garden Club
This spring,
the GP
Garden Club
has focused
on planting
around
campus.
Our main
focus has
been the
front gates
leading into
campus, as
well as the
chapel
garden and
various
containers
around the
grounds.
This month
we will do
flower
arrangements
for the Prep
Gala during
our last
meeting of
the school
year.
We will also
provide
goody bags
to the GP
residents
during exam
week as a
little extra
stress
relief for
this group
of students.
The Garden
Club is
pleased to
welcome
three new
co-chairs
for next
school year,
Stacy Carr,
Ms. Paige
Connelly,
and Barbara
Schuler, a
very
talented
trio that we
all look
forward to
working with
in 2012-13.
Our club is
a great
group of
parent
volunteers
and we
welcome all
to give us a
try next
year!
No gardening
experience
is necessary
and joining
the club is
a great way
to get to
know other
Little Hoya
parents.
Our next
meeting to
arrange the
Gala flowers
will be on
Friday,
May
4th
at 8:30 a.m.
- we will
meet at
Boland Hall.
All are
welcome to
help us with
this task!
In closing,
I would like
to thank my
co-chairs,
Linda O'Hare
and Andrea
Taylor, who
I've really
enjoyed
working with
for the last
two years.
Both have
been
instrumental
in the
club's
success and
have been
extremely
dedicated
co-chairs.
Their
creativity
and hard
work have
been a
blessing to
the club and
the school.
Thank you
Linda and
Andrea, and
I know we
will all be
back to
volunteer
together
next year
under the
new club
management!!!!
Kind
regards,

the impact
