Rhythm and Reboot

August 8, 2019
An unintentional consequence of my intentional decision to step away from serving in a school as a principal to serving many schools as a consultant has been the need to establish a new rhythm to the summer months. While there is certainly down time in the summer for a school’s...

Power of Play

July 25, 2019
As a young child I recall my kindergarten experience included numerous opportunities for free play, socialization, listening to my teacher read stories on the carpet, and spending time outdoors. Fast forward 50+ years, and four and five-year-old kindergarten classrooms include full reading, writing and math curricula with pre- and post-tests...

Catholic Schools United in Christ

June 24, 2019
I recently came across a great quote that described Catholic school culture as “…a way of life rooted in Christ, a Gospel-based creed and code and a Catholic vision that provides inspiration…” (Flynn, 1993). I have spent time reflecting on this image as it relates to my work in Catholic...

Exceptional Needs

May 23, 2019
As a former Catholic school principal who sat with parents seeking a Catholic education for their son/daughter who had exceptional needs the realization of the scarcity of resources in Catholic schools was often front and center.  There existed a delicate balance between saying yes, enroll your son/daughter and then us...

The Hispanic Conundrum

May 21, 2019
Many Catholic schools are experiencing declining enrollment. What is surprising is that so many of them are ignoring the potential contained within the growing Hispanic population. There are numerous reasons why a school ignores the Hispanic community within its attendance area. They believe Hispanic parishioners can’t afford the tuition; they...
