On Giving Tuesday, our goal is to raise $100,000 for our schools!
Enhancing Our School Experiences
The impact of your support can be seen daily in our schools. From the William “Pete” Gallagher Gymnasium and the Vitkus Center for Excellence at SCC, to the amazing performances displayed by our Theatre Departments and Select Choirs, to the Fountas and Pinnell reading program in our elementary schools; all of these are amazing examples of how your support is changing our schools.

Changing
The World
Outside the four walls of our schools you can see the many alumni who impact our world on a daily basis. Matt Smith ’96 is a perfect example of this. Matt is the CEO and Co-Founder of Fortify Rights, a non-profit whose mission is to ensure human rights for all. They create change by investigating human rights violations, engaging people in power on solutions, and strengthening human rights defenders. A couple of their key achievements are the release and protection of 150 plus human rights defenders and the creation of international investigations into Myanmar human rights violation. They have received multiple awards and accolades including the 2021 Communitas Award, 2020 Shorty Award, a 2016 Emmy Nomination, and White House invitations (under three administrations). Matt Smith embodies what is means to be a “Saint” and he is truly changing the world.

This week, Mr. Pipher’s Careers and Vocations classes at Seton welcomed special guest speakers, Father Ignatius and Father Charbel from Mount Saint Hermitage in Endicott and Father Cornelius Deep a recently ordained Pastoral Vicar. The speakers shared their faith journeys and gave students an inside look at what daily life is like living out their unique spiritual callings.
A huge thank you to the speakers for sharing their wisdom, and to Mr. Ramil for connecting us with Father Charbel and Father Ignatius!

Continuing with Staff/Alumni Shoutouts! Today we recognize Miss Rita Zielewicz
My current roles at Seton Catholic Central include serving as the School Nurse and Varsity Cheerleading Coach. As a former SCC cheerleader, I am especially grateful for the opportunity to bring the cheerleading program back to the school and share my passion for the sport with a new generation of students.
I graduated from SCC in 2018 and continued my education at Broome Community College before attending Binghamton University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2022.
Seton Catholic Central and the Catholic schools of Broome County hold a very special place in my heart. Having experienced the community as a student, I truly believe in the values, relationships, and sense of belonging that these schools provide."

Staff/alumni shoutouts! Next up is Joy (Ivancie) Ousterout, class of `02.
After almost 25 years since graduating from Seton Catholic Central in 2002, Joy finds herself once again roaming familiar halls as she enters her 6th year with CSBC. She is the current TK teacher at St. James Catholic School and thanks her incredible experience as a CSBC student for the pull to come back and enroll her own children. The same feeling of family and community exists now, just as it did then and she is honored to be a part of it in a professional capacity. Joy has always felt indebted to her teachers for the amazing experience she had in school and has come to realize that the most valuable thing she can give back is the gift of her time. Joy has 3 young daughters all in the system and her husband just recently became a Saint as he has taken on the role of Boys Varsity Soccer Coach. Looking forward to an incredible year ahead - Go Saints!

Continuing with our staff/alumni shoutouts! Today we celebrate Celeste Savage ,class of `81.
"Before my time at Seton, I was an Alum of St. James Grammar School in Johnson City. You might say Catholic Schools of Broome County are in my blood! I have lifelong friends that I made in grammar school who traveled the halls of Seton with me. We get together as often as we can and stay in touch through frequent texts. I believe in the Catholic School System of Broome County. As a teacher of 41 years at St. John the Evangelist, I have seen the children we nurtured and educated become doctors, lawyers, teachers, priests, and religious sisters. I am proud of the heritage of our system, and I pray that the system will continue to provide excellence in education, but most importantly, a Christ-centered education where our Catholic faith is nurtured and handed on to the next generation of Catholics. Go Saints!"
