This year, the ‘Pius Ten’ started high school at Pius X High School.  

They are all boys, all born into families of school staff members in the 2002-03 school year. Eight of the nine (one family had twins) families still have a spouse working at Pius X. 

Group pictures were taken of the 10 boys during the first year, during their kindergarten year and just recently as they began their freshman year. 

Here are the boys, with parents names (*denotes spouse working or worked at Pius), as pictured from left to right in each picture. 

  • Austin Reinke – Tony* (former Pius X employee) and Michelle Reinke; 
  • Joe Heim – Joe and Ketti* Heim; 
  • Jason Kolbas – Vlad and Steph * Kolbas; 
  • Hayden Strizek and Jake Strizek – Jeff and Kerri* Strizek;
