A message from our new Head of School
Dear Holy Child Community,
It is with great joy and deep gratitude that I write to you as I begin my service as Head of School at Connelly School of the Holy Child. I am truly honored to join this remarkable community, one grounded in faith, academic excellence, joyful learning, and the enduring vision of Cornelia Connelly.
From my earliest conversations with members of the Holy Child community, I was struck by the warmth, joy, and deep sense of mission that defines this school. Holy Child is a place where students are known, challenged, supported, and inspired to grow into young women of confidence, compassion, intellect, and integrity. I am excited to join in this meaningful work and eager to help carry it forward.
In the weeks and months ahead, my first priority will be to listen and learn. I look forward to getting to know our students, families, faculty, staff, alumnae, trustees, and friends of the school. I am eager to hear your stories, understand what you love most about Holy Child, and learn more about the hopes you hold for its future.
As I begin this new chapter, I do so with prayerful thanksgiving and great hope. I believe deeply in the power of Catholic education to shape both minds and hearts, and I am inspired by Holy Child’s commitment to helping each young woman grow in wisdom, faith, confidence, and love. Together, we will continue to honor Holy Child’s rich traditions while also boldly imagining what is possible for our students in the years ahead.
Thank you for the kind welcome so many of you have already extended to me. I am grateful to be joining this extraordinary community, and I look forward to meeting you soon.
With gratitude and excitement,
