QP’s Mrs. Perepezko and Famous DadEnrich 2nd Graders’ YearExcerpted with permission from Isthmus, June 7, 2014, by Jessica SteinhoffAround the world, Jerry Only is best known as thecofounder, bassist and sometime vocalist of punkband Misfits. But in Madison his biggest claim tofame is being the father of Eva, a second grader atOur Lady Queen of Peace School. The musician’s“cool dad” status skyrocketed on Friday when hehosted a pizza party for the 8-year-old’s class atLuigi’s. It was the last day of school for the kids Only sent Eva to Queen of Peace for the2013–14 year because he thought the regimenof a Catholic school might help her succeedacademically. Eva’s mother lived in Madison, soQueen of Peace seemed like a sensible choice.“My daughter had convulsions when she wasvery little, so learning has been hard for her ina lot of ways,” Only says. “She wasn’t makingenough progress academically, so it was time totry something different.”The year at Queen of Peace went even betterthan Only had anticipated. The key was Eva’steacher, Kathleen Perepezko, who goes by Mrs. P.in the classroom. She’s been teaching elementaryschoolers at Queen of Peace for 34 years .“Mrs. P. was so helpful,” Only says. “She reallybrought Eva out of the dark and helped her catchup. We have a lot of work to do this summer still,but Eva’s in a much better place academically.”Plus Eva gained an entire classroom of friends,who lined up to share their addresses withher so they can exchange letters in the future.Letter exchanges were an important part of theschool year as Mrs. P.’s class studied places andcultures from other parts of the globe. Onlywas undoubtedly the group’s favorite letterwriter. While touring the world with his band, hechronicled his experiences for the class throughletters and videos.“Jerry came in and gave presentations to theclass, and when he went on tour, he sent thesebeautiful books he’d made that had picturesand flags and souvenirs from each country,”Perepezko says. “He made books about Australia,4W WW. Q OP C . OR GRussia, Brazil, Argentina—it fit right into what wewere studying.”All 27 kids in the class received mementoesfrom faraway countries . Only wrote lettersto the students nearly every day, and he’d uselarge pieces of spiral-bound paper to constructbooks for the stories, postcards and currencyhe gathered. In addition to sharing facts andobservations about the places he visited, heasked some of the people he met to write lettersto Mrs. P.’s class as well, from a teacher in Chinato a 150-person team of Australians working toprotect the whale population.“I can’t always be home with my little girl, so Ibrought the world to her,” he says.

Thank You forYour SupportWithin the last year, the CatholicMulticultural Center has beenundergoing many new andexciting changes. One of thebiggest milestones this yearwas the 5th anniversary of theCenter’s reopening under OurLady Queen of Peace Parish.Without the outpouring ofcontinued support from theparish, reopening would not havebeen possible. Since then thecenter has grown stronger thanever, especially over the past year.Take the immigration legalservices program for example.This year we added one fulltime staff attorney to increasethe program’s capacity to seeimmigration-related cases.More importantly, we are nowinitiating outreach to rural areasin the counties surrounding DaneCounty. Program staff travels toeach different service area atleast once a month to meet withclients who until now had noaccess to affordable immigrationlegal services. The programnow serves the Montfort andJefferson areas, with morecommunities to come.This fall the center gratefullywelcomed solar panels to itsroof. Installed in October, thesolar project will not only benefitthe environment but also allowthe CMC to spend more onresources that provide directservices to the center’s guests.The call to care for creation isinextricably linked to the careof our brothers and sisters inneed. Solar panels not only saveenergy and money, but also helpto guarantee that all people,regardless of race, gender, age,or socio-economic status, havethe opportunity to live healthierlives and breathe cleaner air.The CMC is exploring ParishGarden Partnerships for thegrowing of specialized grains andlegumes for harvest season thatwill be processed by the CMCCulinary Creations Catering staff.The program was piloted this yearwith St. Thomas Aquinas Parish.Native yellow corn, pinto beans,and confectionary sunflowerswere planted at a new gardenon parish property. The cornwas ground to make masa—cornflour used for making tortillas—for the food pantry. Pinto beanswere dried and prepared forstorage, so they may be used inthe catering program or in thefood pantry. The sunflower seedswere to be made into sunflowerseed butter, but unfortunatelythe crop didn’t survive. Despitethis disappointment, the projectwas a success overall and willcontinue to grow and improvenext year.This year also reminded us howprecious our volunteers are. Oneof our consistent volunteers whohad been coming since 2009,passed away unexpectedly inhis sleep due to natural causes.Buntheoun “Bun” Ouk wasa kind-hearted, soft-spokenvolunteer who helped in thecomputer lab with the weekly“Interview Prep and ResumeDevelopment” workshop. Hiswork truly helped the Center’sprograms grow and better serveLeft to right: Larry Allen, Buntheoun Ouk,Don Brown.the community. Outside thelab he spent considerable timepromoting CMC programs andspecial events in the community.Bun, who was always seen with asmile on his face, was very closeto obtaining his U.S. citizenshipwith the help of CMC immigrationlegal services. We will miss Bun;may he rest in peace.The Queen of Peace Parishcommunity has been a wonderfulhelp in making the center what itis today. We truly exist becauseof your support, time, andcompassion. We would like tothank everyone for their help andsupport contributing to whatthe CMC has accomplished andundergone over the last year. Wewould also like to invite everyoneto come and see the additionsthat were made and to use theresources that you have helpedmake possible. Together wehope to keep adding on to theCenter to make it even betterthan it is today!Thank you for all that you do forthe Catholic Multicultural Center!Submitted by Tara Terski –CMC InternWWW.QOP C.
