Spring Greetings!
It is hard to believe that we will be celebrating the 20th Spring Fling this year! The Spring Fling has surely evolved since its inception two decades ago only utilizing half of the Convocation Center Gym for dinner and a small auction. This wonderful event has grown into an outstanding fundraiser for Norwalk Catholic School as well as a community builder for our Flyer Families. We have cruised the evening on a riverboat, welcomed the circus into town, partied like we were in the Roaring 20's, took a dive under the sea, won it big in Las Vegas, and auctioned from a baseball diamond. We love hearing about the stories and memories created at past Spring Fling events. Please share them with us at this milestone.
As we celebrate the 20th anniversary of Spring Fling, just as we did in 2020, we will be hosting the event virtually in hopes to see all of you again in person in 2022. This year's event will once more be presented through GiveSmart and the live auction portion will be live streamed through Facebook and YouTube with our wonderful MC Skip Wilde and a special co-host for 2021. We hope that you, your family, and friends will join us virtually on Saturday, May 8th for a night of delicious food, abundant bidding, various raffles, and countless laughs as we celebrate and raise funds towards the excellent catholic education that we offer at Norwalk Catholic School and St. Paul High School.
Truly Yours,
The Spring Fling Committee

Congratulations to St. Paul Head Boys Basketball Coach Mike Smith as he announces his retirement from coaching after 32 years as a head coach and 5 years as an assistant coach all at St. Paul High School.
Please take a moment to read the attached letter from Coach Mike Smith:
"To the St. Paul Community,
The time has come for me to step down from my position as head basketball coach at St. Paul High School. Although this decision has no way been an easy one. The reason is very simple- after 32 years running the basketball program, it’s just time.
The job has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me. I’ve been blessed in so many ways and have worked with some truly terrific people. The administrators at St. Paul have been great starting with the people that hired me 32 years ago. Dennis Doughty and Ruth Weisenberger. They took a chance on a young 22 year old and I will be forever grateful for that. Having John Livengood for our athletic director has made my job one of the best. He is the rock that has made St. Paul athletics what it is today. He is a tremendous leader in our school system.
To my entire family starting with my wife Kelly, my son’s Connor & Treg, my daughters Elizabeth & Danielle along with my parents Milton and the late Lois Smith. They have sacrificed so much in allowing me to pursue my passion for coaching. They have been unbelievably supportive. They made wins more exciting and losses less painful and without them I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I hope they are as proud of me as I am of them.
Obviously a head basketball coach is only as good as the assistant coaches that are in the program. I have been so blessed to be around some of the finest men I’ve ever met while coaching at St. Paul. I consider them family. It’s no wonder our young men have been successful in basketball and the game of life. Our coaches have truly demonstrated what it means to be men of integrity and I am proud of the way they lead by example. They have sacrificed time with their families to work with our young men and make them better basketball players and people. I want to thank you all for everything you have done through the years. It’s greatly appreciated.
Finally, to the players past and present- you made this job fun!! What a joy it has been to watch you grow not only during your time in our program, but after graduation too. St. Paul basketball has been built on the backs of so many hardworking young men and I take great comfort and pride in knowing that being hardworking, tough, dedicated, humble, and coachable are all attributes that will carry you on to being successful people, husbands, and fathers. I thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. It’s been a great, fun ride. One I will never forget.
Thank you St. Paul for allowing me to do what I love for so long. I will always bleed Red & Black.
Mike Smith
St. Paul Boys Basketball Coach 1989-2021"
Thank you Coach Smith for all that you have done for the St. Paul High School Basketball program! We will forever be grateful for your dedication to our school community. Forever a Flyer!

After leaving Norwalk St. Paul in 2015, I continued to teach for the Toledo Catholic Diocese at my home parish of Mansfield St. Peter's in 2016. Since then, I have been a Subject Matter Expert (SME) for Science Education at The Ohio State University's College of Education and a University Supervisor of Field Experiences and Internships at Ashland University. I have always felt that NCS is a very special place, and I am blessed to have the opportunity to return.

This summer, I decided to make the move back home and am very fortunate to have the opportunity to work for my Alma Mater, Norwalk Catholic School (2015). I’ve grown up my entire life in the Norwalk community and am excited for my future here! When not teaching, I love to spend time outside doing whatever I can in the sun. At Heidelberg, I was a four-year letter winner in volleyball and am currently the 8th grade girl’s coach which I am thrilled for. Volleyball is a huge passion of mine and I’m looking forward to helping young girls learn to love the game in the same place that I did! As the school year is now approaching, I am getting anxious to meet all of my co-workers and students for what will surely be a year to remember!

Here is a short message from Mr. Quezada: I was born the 10th child of a very devout Catholic family of 12 children. I was raised in a small but beautiful and quaint town in Northern Mexico. Family necessities brought us all to California, and eventually God led me all this way to Norwalk, Ohio. Since I was little, I have always had a spiritual and intellectual inclination towards my Catholic faith. I hope that as a teacher I will be able to share my spiritual and intellectual interests with my students as well as their parents, while simultaneously learning from their own faith journey. I am excited to be a part of this new family!

I have played volleyball my entire life and my team won the state championship my senior year at Huron High School. Since then, I have been coaching at St. Paul for the past four years. I am very passionate about the game and enjoy sharing that passion with my players. I spent my childhood growing up in Collins but moved to Huron a few years ago where I currently reside. In my spare time, you can find me with my family, friends, or playing with my dog, Herm. I recently got engaged to my boyfriend, Tyler of 4 years.

Are you spending more time at home and looking for something to do? Do you have little ones at home looking to be creative? Participate in our Community Art Drive!
We've gotten several questions on how the community can show their appreciation for our local health care heroes or cheer up patients and residents at Fisher-Titus Medical Center, Norwalk Memorial Home, and the Carriage House. In order to minimize contact and practice social distancing, we’re excited to be doing a virtual art drive. Creations can be sent to ArtDrive@ftmc.com and they will be printed and displayed in various locations at Fisher-Titus. Some ideas to get you started are:
◊ Sidewalk chalk drawings
◊ Uplifting cards
◊ Window displays
Pose for a photo with your art or snap a photo of your creation on its own. We can’t wait to see what you come up with and we are so grateful for the support our community has shown us these last few weeks! Thank you!

Friends for the Future Faithful Flyers
Our Kick-Off Weekend is Feb. 1st & 2nd.
Friends for the Future is our annual fund which provides necessary operating funds to the school for day-to-day operations. NCS is able to keep tuition affordable because of a "three-legged stool" financial model with roughly 1/3 of the cost to educate coming through tuition, 1/3 from supportive parishes, and 1/3 provided from generous donations to Friends for the Future and other programs.
Yes -- we do humbly ask you to consider 2 Commitments this year to Norwalk Catholic Schools. Please make a commitment to today and tomorrow.

JOIN US TO CELEBRATE OUR COMMITMENT AS FAITHFUL FLYERS!

Lily Dowdell qualifies for State Cross Country Meet
St. Paul standout Lily Dowdell is returning to the state championships for a third time following a 13th-place finish in 19:07.6.
That time is six seconds better than her time two seasons ago at state, when she finished 10th overall as an All-Ohioan in 19:13.7.
Before Saturday’s regional race, St. Paul coach Monica Nash delivered a simple message to Dowdell: we all know you can do this, you just have to believe in yourself.
That pep talk fueled Dowdell to her strong time.
“My coaches believe in me, and that’s the biggest thing an athlete can have,” Dowdell said. “That just really helped.”
After running at state her sophomore year, Dowdell missed the cut last season. That shortcoming inspired her to change her diet.
Dowdell credited her mother for providing well-balanced meals over the past year, but it turns out snacking played a key part in her diet as well. Her doctor told her it was an important part of a balanced diet.
So she snacked more — three times per day. And now, she’ll finish her senior season at the highest level competition.
“I’m just really excited to go back there,” Dowdell said. “My whole school, family and friends gather. It’s not just another race. It’s phenomenal how many people come. The fact that it’s my senior year and I didn’t go last year, I’m excited.”
