St. Henry District High School (SHDHS) is honored to announce the establishment of the Mark Vogt Legacy Endowed Work-Study Fund, a tribute to the life and impact of Mark Vogt, Class of 1971. Thanks to a generous endowment from a dedicated donor, this fund will allow students to work at SHDHS to help pay for their tuition, ensuring a Catholic education remains accessible to families who embrace the values of hard work and commitment.

Mark’s life was defined by dedication, service, and compassion. A standout athlete at SHDHS, he earned a spot on the varsity basketball team as a freshman and achieved multiple holes-in-one on the golf course—his passion for sports continued at Thomas More College, where he furthered his athletic career.

After college, Mark became Kentucky’s youngest Property Valuation Administrator, overseeing the state’s third-largest county. His leadership extended statewide as president of the Property Valuation Administrators Association, where he served for over thirty years with integrity and dedication. Yet, beyond his professional success, Mark was known for his kindness and generosity—always looking out for friends, quietly helping those in need, and offering support without seeking recognition.

The Mark Vogt Legacy Endowed Work-Study Fund reflects his values of hard work, service, and a commitment to others. This program will give students valuable work experience while helping make their education more affordable. Contributions to the fund are welcome throughout the year, ensuring its continued impact on future SHDHS students.

Wallace and Diane Whalen believe in the importance of education. Wallace attended St. Paul School and graduated from Covington Catholic before pursuing degrees at the Florida Institute of Technology and Northern Kentucky University. Diane is a graduate of Boone County High School and attended Northern Kentucky University.

They passed this value on to their children: Jared (SHDHS Class of 2000) and Lindsey (SHDHS Class of 2003). Jared graduated from the University of Kentucky School of Engineering, and Lindsey graduated from the University of Kentucky, continuing to the University of Louisville, where she obtained her Master’s degree.

Wallace spent his career in the Printing Ink Industry and served as an Assistant Scoutmaster for Boy Scout Troop 1 from 1987 until 2023. He proudly watched both his son, Jared, and grandson, Bradlee, achieve the Rank of Eagle Scout. In 2021, the three of them hiked to the top of Mount Baldy together at Philmont Scout Ranch.

Diane was involved in the community for many years and ultimately followed in her father’s footsteps, being elected Mayor of Florence, an office she held for 24 years.

They are blessed with four beautiful grandchildren. They range in age from 19 to 3, with the oldest attending WKU, the two in the middle attending middle school, and the youngest in preschool.

To continue giving back to the community, they decided that a scholarship for an incoming freshman from St. Paul school would provide an opportunity for the next graduates of St. Henry District High School.

Robert Jacob Rebitski Memorial Scholarship

In Loving Memory of Robert Jacob Rebitski, SHDHS Class of 2016

“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” — John 15:13

This scholarship honors the memory of Robert Rebitski, a 26-year-old SHDHS graduate who was wicked smart and lived with quiet strength, selfless love, and a deep appreciation for the everyday. He found joy in the ordinary and wasn’t afraid to be a little ornery—in the best way. He had an infectious smile and giggle.

Robert brought humor, grit, and determination to everything he did—especially when it came to caring for others. He would lay down his life for his brother or sister and lived out his Catholic faith through humility, service, and devotion to family. He thought outside the box—not just in business, where he boldly purchased and ran his father’s legacy company—but also in how he loved, solved problems, and made others feel seen and valued through his quiet acts of kindness. He earned the Boy Scouts’ highest honor of Eagle Scout and stayed true to the Scout Oath.

This scholarship reminds us that while Crusaders may come from different paths, we are united in our mission to serve, lead, and love well.

Eligibility:
