A Note From Deacon Campbell
Dear future Eagle families,
From the faculty and staff at Bishop Watterson I’d like to wish you a happy new year! Normally at this time of year we are visited by young alumni who are getting ready to go back to college and stop by to catch up with teachers, friends and siblings. It’s a homecoming of sorts because they feel a sense of comfort and belonging at Bishop Watterson. We miss those visits. It is a different year.
If the pandemic has taught us nothing else, it is to keep things simple. Since I became principal in 2016, my message to our students has also been simple: Love God, do your best, and take care of one another.
And so, while things have been far from “normal” this year and with Catholic Schools Week on the horizon, we can rejoice in the resolve and stamina of our Catholic schools and the communities of faith that form around them. Let’s pray together for an end to the pandemic, healing for those impacted by it and for peace in our country and world.
Deacon Chris Campbell
Principal
