Student Spotlight
Jack Kovach '20
Loves About Brebeuf
One of things I love about Brebeuf is the sense of community I feel here. As a senior, I’ve started to reflect on my time at Brebeuf, and one of the first things that sticks out to me is how connected the students are here. From school classes to sports teams to social events to retreats, I feel lucky to have gotten to know and/or share an experience with mostly everyone in the senior class. I believe you learn the best when you are happy, and it’s all of the dynamic and interesting people I’ve met at Brebeuf that make going to school here so enjoyable.
Future Plans
Next year I’ll be attending Duke University to study Biomedical Engineering and run cross country and track.
If that doesn’t work out I’ll move to Hawaii and take up surfing.

CELEBRATE BRAVES 4 BRAVES!
What does philanthropy mean to you? Throughout the week of February 10, we are inviting students to join in the spirit of giving – for each other, for others– as we celebrate Brebeuf Jesuit’s largest fundraiser of the year, Bistro.
Throughout the week of February 10, we are asking students to show their pride, appreciation, and love of Brebeuf through their gifts of spare change or notes of appreciation, and we would love for you to share in the conversation, too! Please talk to your student about the power of philanthropy – of giving back, of service – and the impact their participation has as students and future alumni on the Brebeuf community. Your gifts make a difference, and so do theirs. The generosity and compassion of our students truly makes up the heart of Brebeuf, and ensures Brave futures for generations to come.
Bonus: The class that raises the most money by end of week gets to “Duck Tape the Dean” and throw a “Pie at the Principal,” JUG free, on Friday, February 21! Thank you for your support!
