I facilitate providing grants to organizations-specificallyfocusing on education, literacy and helping people with their basic needs. I also organize volunteer opportunities for our employees at our family business Grand Appliance. I am most proud of the Mark R. Reckling scholarship we created in my father's honor to help first generation students attend college. There have been six recipients so far. I was also a middle school teacher-teaching English for 5 years.

โ€œOn Wisconsin!โ€ started as the closing number of our spring concert almost by accident, but now itโ€™s definitely here to stay!

Scrolling through the music library, Band Director J.R. Buzzell pulled this one out three years ago as a fun extra piece for the students to play. At the time the band consisted of only 13 musicians. The following year they had grown to 26 and decided to play it again. Then 45. Now with 62 musicians, the students insisted this number be part of last nightโ€™s spring concert once again, and just like that a new Buzzell Band tradition was born!

A heartfelt thank you to the Vignieri family from Birchwood Foods for donating the delicious beef burgers, our parent volunteers for serving our Lancers, and our Advancement Director Mandy Weiss for bringing it all together for this fun in the sun lunch!

Yesterday's May Crowning Mass featured a special procession of our 2nd grade first communicants alongside our 5th grade leaders to crown the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of May.

This cherished tradition honors Mary for her unwavering devotion to Christ, reminding all of our students that when we walk with her, we are inspired to stride with faith, courage, and virtue in her footsteps.
