I ask you all to join me in welcoming Mrs. Audra Dowling as our new Assistant Principal. Mrs. Dowling is a product of Catholic education. She attended Catholic grades school and high school, earned her Bachelor of Science in Education (Early Childhood) and her Master of Arts in Education at Walsh University, a Catholic university, and completed her Doctoral program at Bellarine University, another Catholic school.
Mrs. Dowling brings extensive experience in academia and most recently served as the Dean of Students at IU Kokomo. She and her husband, Thomas, are parents of two current STSJP students and are active members of St. Patrick Parish.
Having been an STSJP parent for five years, Mrs. Dowling is already part of our family of Saints. She is ready to begin her new role as we start the 2022-23 school year, and is excited to work with our staff, students and families. She will spend the majority of her time at our St. Patrick campus, but I look forward to her being at the St. Joan campus at times as well.
Please continue to pray for our school and our staff as we prepare for the new school year. I know God has great things in store for us!
