Kennedy Catholic
HS graduates the
CLASS OF 2019

The Kennedy Class of 2019
and their friends and family.

BY RICH KIRBY
GUEST WRITER

Kennedy Catholic held its commencement June 8, at St.

Joseph’s Church in Somers, graduating 144 students.

Following the familiar strains of “Pomp and

Circumstance” and an invocation delivered by Anthony

Sanseverino from the graduating class, Patricia Curtin, the

salutatorian who lives in Hawthorne, took to the podium.

Curtin, a National Merit Scholarship winner who will be

attending Notre Dame, delivered an alternately whimsical

and moving speech that lit upon the transience, and

importance, of memories made in high school.

Diplomas were then conferred by e Most Reverend

Peter Byrne, auxiliary bishop of the Archdiocese of New

York, and Rev. Mark G. Vaillancourt, Ph.D, president and Valedictorian Eileen Cooney
principal of Kennedy Catholic.

A number of local businesses and service groups

rewarded nearly two dozen members of the graduating class

for both their scholarship and public service. e Somers

Women’s Club, Somers Democratic Club, Somers Police

Benevolent Association, Weinstein Pharmacy of Katonah,
Lincoln Hall Foundation, Northeast Westchester Rotary Salutatorian Patricia Curtin

Club, Knights of Columbus of Somers, and the Carmel-

Kent Lions Club were among those acknowledged as the awards were made to the graduates. All that local money

went to lining the graduates’ pockets on top of the nearly $42 million in merit-based college scholarships already

awarded to the Class of 2019.

In her valedictory speech, Ossining native Eileen Cooney thanked the school’s faculty for their focus upon

developing her “moral compass.” Cooney, headed for Providence College, was also the recipient of a NY State

Scholarship for Academic Excellence.

Kennedy maintains a very active and invested alumni community, and the school wastes no time in bolstering

its ranks. Fred Compton, director of advancement and alumni relations, formally inducted the Class on 2019 into

the Kennedy Catholic Alumni Association just before the newly-minted grads led out of the church.

From the invocation through the valedictory, the name of the 145th graduate was continuously invoked during

the ceremony. Brendan Maguire, member of the Kennedy Class of 2019 until his death from cancer last summer,

was a beloved presence in the classroom and on the ball eld. Maguire’s family has established a scholarship in

his name.

Rev. Mark G. Vaillancourt, Ph.D, president and principal of Kennedy Catholic.

Christen Ferrara
JOHN JAY HIGH SCHOOL

Teen of the Month:
Christen Ferrara

BY KATE BELDERS
CONTRIBUTING WRITER

PHOTO: KATE BELDERS For Christen Ferrara, graduating John Jay High School senior, responsibility and
hard work are at the core of everything she does, whether that involves caring for a
1,400-pound horse or managing the John Jay varsity football team.

Born in Mount Kisco, Ferrara resided in both Hawthorne and Pleasantville before
moving to the Lewisboro School District in the sixth grade. After entering John Jay
High School, Ferrara gravitated toward mathematics and English. For Ferrara, math
is a subject that not only comes naturally to her but one she enjoys.

It would be her interest in mathematics that would lead her to take a senior intern-
ship at the A2 Salon, in Ridge eld, Conn. At the A2 Salon, Ferrara learned about
advertising, marketing, and running a small business. She states that her “internship
experience has been really interesting,” and it has allowed her to “get a feel of how a
small business operates.”

In addition to her fondness of math and English, Ferrara is known for her strong
work ethic. Renee Psihountas, John Jay High School math teacher, said, “I have
watched Christen persevere in math and grow tremendously. At this time of year,
while some of her peers are having some signi cant ‘senioritis,’ she has shown steady,
consistent, exceptional e ort. She always has a mature and thoughtful approach to
her studies.”

In addition to her studies this year, Ferrara served as the team manager for the
John Jay varsity football team. Starting with summer training camp and throughout
the football season, Ferrara was responsible for setting up drills and sideline equip-
ment, collecting uniforms, and lming practices. Before games, she was in charge
of stocking the sideline with everything the team could need for the game from
footballs to water.

James Clark, head coach of the John Jay varsity football team, said that Ferrara was
an “integral part of the team’s success this season.” He describes Ferrara as a team
manager who was always prepared no matter what came her way.

“I can remember asking her on a rainy game day if we had plastic bags for our
towels and sideline equipment. She just laughed at me and said, ‘already done,’” to
which Mr. Clark replied, “of course it was.”

Ferrara feels that serving as the manager of the football team taught her responsi-
bility and the importance of being a team player.

When not in school, she can be found at Echo Farm in South Salem, which Fer-
rara describes as “like a home to her” and the people “like family.” For Ferrara, horse
riding is a signi cant part of her life as she has been riding since she was 5 and a part
of the Echo Farm family since the age of 9. When speaking about riding, she says
that it is her love of horses and the connection that she feels with them that drives
her to work hard and to compete at her highest possible level.

During the competition season, Ferrara participates in at least three shows a
month. She enjoys competing, stating that “going into the ring, you get a rush of
nerves in a good way” and “you get to show the world” who you are as a rider. When
not competing, she spends her time at Echo Farm riding, training, and working.
During her time at Echo Farm, Ferrara has ridden and trained three Echo horses:
Bullet, Justice, and JB. In the summer, she works as a counselor at the farm’s summer
camp where she provides an example to younger riders.

Callie Bauer, owner and head trainer at Echo Farm said, “Not only do the younger
kids look up to her now as a role model” but “she is also an example to them of proper
barn etiquette and correct horsemanship.” Bauer goes on to say that she is “proud of
the young lady Christen has become” and that she “looks forward to seeing all the
great things Ms. Ferrara will accomplish.”

is fall, Ferrara will be attending Penn State to major in advertising. In college,
she wants to focus on working with marketing statistics and what attracts people to
particular advertisements and the psychology around how products are targeted to
speci c demographics. She hopes that once she completes her college degree that she
can work for an advertising agency.

Looking back at her time at John Jay, her experience working with the football
team has served to shape lasting memories, especially the games and pep rallies.
Additionally, she credits the support of John Jay teachers who not only made classes
interesting but brought fun into learning.

Ferrara is the daughter of Michael and Donna Ferrara. Michael is a banker with
UBS and Donna is a homemaker.

e Katonah Lewisboro Times would like to congratulate Ferrara and all the students
pro led during the 2018-2019 school year on their graduation. We also want to send a
special thanks to Assistant Principal Vincent Bell and the sta and faculty at John Jay
High School for their support of this column.
