CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. KAISER-MUNDAY!
Winner of the Outstanding Northern Kentucky Private School Educator Award presented by Thomas More University School of Education at The Cincinnatus Association 2026 Excellence in Education Awards on February 19, 2026

Our 2026 CRU $10K Raffle has come to a close, and we cannot thank you enough for your incredible support. Our student goal was to sell 2,700 tickets to earn a day off school. Our financial goal was to meet/exceed last year’s total plus offset the addition of two extra prizes, for a target of 2,880 tickets. After extending the deadline at the last minute when we were just 30 tickets short, our community stepped up. We ultimately sold 2,920 tickets, raising $73,000. After prize payouts, these funds will go directly to support our operating budget.
Our students, parents, alumni, and the entire NKY community and beyond came together to help us achieve and exceed our goals. We are truly grateful.
As part of our selling incentives,
- We earned an extra day off school in March.
- 240 students earned Out of Uniform in May.
- Congratulations to Audrey Pieczonka, who sold the most tickets and won a $100 Amazon Gift Card
- Drawing winners who sold 10+ tickets are:
- 26-27 Homecoming tickets: Andrew Hagedorn
- 25-26 Prom Tickets: Maggie Setters
- $100 Amazon gift cards: Cooper McIntire & Claire Kennedy
- Faculty Seller: $100 gift card: Mr. Zvosecz
Thank you again for your generosity and for supporting our students and our mission!

CRUSADER OF THE WEEK
|
|

Mrs. Vieth nominated Junior Mckenna Hartwig for Crusader of the Week in AP English Language and Composition.
"From amid a class of excellent writers and thinkers, the Crusader of the Week for AP English Language is Mckenna Hartwig. Mckenna is a student whose creativity in her writing reflects the creativity in her thinking. During Socratic seminars, she always contributes thoughtful, well-reasoned, and complex ideas that reflect her ability to see deeper in a work of literature or to note the relationship between the writer, audience, and purpose in rhetorical analysis. She works well with her peers and offers insightful yet respectful criticism of her classmates’ work in peer reviews. She has been a pleasure to have in class. Congratulations, Mckenna!"
Mrs. Cruz nominated Sophomore Natalie Stow for Crusader of the Week in ASL 1.
"Natalie consistently shows up to class with a positive attitude and commits to her work. She not only asks great clarifying questions to deepen her knowledge, but also asks about signs she is curious about. She adds great ideas to class discussions, helps her peers with reviewing signs, and is, overall, a wonderful student. Congratulations, Natalie! "
Mrs. Kaiser nominated Freshman Grace Wolking for Crusader of the Week in Health.
"Grace consistently turns in high-quality work and demonstrates genuine interest in the material we are learning. She asks thoughtful questions, actively participates in class, and engages deeply in personal reflections. It is evident that health and helping others may truly be her passion. I hope one day she follows her heart and pursues a path in health care, as she has the compassion, dedication, and interest to make a meaningful impact. Well deserved, Grace!"
