Marquette Catholic High School is excited to welcome Kristin Scandora to its theology department for the spring semester.
“Kristin’s educational background and extensive experience in both Catholic schools and service retreats made her an outstanding candidate. She has demonstrated a thorough understanding of educational technology and youth ministry along with a level of empathy that will benefit our students. I’m confident in her ability to make our theological and community service endeavors even more impactful,” principal Casey Martin said.
Scandora arrives at Marquette by means of Saint Viator High School (Ill.), where she played a lead role in curriculum revision in addition to guiding Freshmen and Junior college preparatory courses. Outside the classroom, Scandora kept busy in several community service-related ventures.
She served St. James Parish in Highwood, Illinois before moving on to Woodlands Academy of the Sacred Heart in Lake Forest, Illinois as both retreat coordinator and boarding school houseparent. Scandora brought her passion to the Hoosier State in 2017 when she volunteered as a teen center facilitator with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County in Chesterton.
Scandora graduated from DePaul University with her bachelor’s degree in 2008 before earning a Master of Divinity from Catholic Theological Union in Chicago in 2013. She resides in Michigan City.
Marquette Catholic High School opens the spring semester on Monday, January 3rd.
