Dear Serra Alumnus,
We had such an exciting Homecoming and Reunion Weekend! It was great to reconnect with so many alumni from various decades. We thank you for continuing to support our alumni events.
On Friday night, more than 500 alumni visited us at the barbecue and enjoyed watching the game in the Morton Family Gymnasium. On Saturday night, the gym was alive again with Padre alumni and their guests. I particularly enjoyed giving diamond, platinum and golden diplomas to the Classes of '49, '59 and '69. Up next will be the Alumni Games the week of Thanksgiving.
Hope to see you very soon at Serra!
Sincerely,
|
| ThanksGIVEday is November 14 |
 The countdown is on for our second annual ThanksGIVEday, a 24-hour philanthropic celebration aimed at raising funds to improve the overall experience of our Padres here at Serra High School.
This year, Thursday, November 14 is the big day where we will ask the entire Serra community to unite in the spirit of philanthropy. Last year we were able to raise $150,000 on our inaugural ThanksGIVEday, allowing us to enhance the daily lives of our Padres. Among the improvements were the addition of new classes, new auditorium curtains, and FloWater hydration systems in the cafeteria and sports locker rooms.
The contributions from our Serra community this year will provide new technology in the Academic Resource Center, enhance our visual/performing arts and athletics programs and other campus-wide additions.
Together we can make a difference. Please help us to beat last year's successful effort by contributing the ThanksGIVEday and let's continue to make Serra better than ever!

Tri-School Productions Students Present Lord of the Flies
|
When a plane crashes on a remote island, only a small group of students survives. From the prophetic and virtuous, to the lovable and brutish, each attempts to establish control as the reality-and brutal savagery-of their situation sets in. Tri-School Productions students from Serra, Mercy and Notre Dame will present Lord of the Flies
next weekend.
The most interesting aspect of this play is that there are two casts - one all male and the other all female. It has been an unusual but interesting experience for all involved.
Serra senior
Aidan Broderick plays the role of Jack.
"He's one of the cool kids," Aidan said. "The other kids look up to him. This play has a lot of shock factor that the audience won't be expecting."
The all-male cast performances will be on October 25 and November 1, and the all-female cast performances will be on
October 26 and November 2.

Freshmen Rock the Pack Out
|
 Former San Francisco Giants pitcher Jeremy Affeldt remembers a life-changing moment in his life - the day he met a homeless teenager in Denver. The exhausted, hungry, 16-year-old girl had a black eye and a split lip. Affeldt bought her some food and thought, "I need to do more."
Every year, Serra Padres partner with Affeldt's foundation, Generation Alive. Since Affeldt and his wife started the foundation in 2005, the organization has provided more than 3.5 million meals. Generation Alive also helps victims of human trafficking.
On October 3, Serra's entire freshman class packed 20,000 meals for people in need, which will be distributed to Glide Memorial Church in San Francisco.
Generation Alive Program Director Darrin Duty and Program Coordinator Rob Jackson were on site all day. They noted that the organization partners with at least 50 schools every year.
"It's important for us to empower students to service the community," Duty said. "They learn how to make an impact. Today, there were eight freshman leaders who organized the Pack Out."
"It's always good to help out, said Mason Ackerman '23. "
Not everyone is as fortunate and lucky as we are to go a great school."

 Come and cheer on our Padres at St. Francis this Friday night!
Poly Day on November 2
Mark your calendars for Poly Day on the Serra blacktop on Saturday, November 2.
One of the most important values in the Polynesian culture is family.
Polynesian Day is an honored tradition here at Serra when our community and guests represent and appreciate the Polynesian culture, while enjoying authentic cuisine and a special halftime Haka dance performed by the freshman and junior varsity football teams. Join our Serra family on Saturday November 2 and cheer on our Padres as they battle Valley Christian in one of the most anticipated games of the year!
