Parent Paws - 4.2.24

Message from the Board of Directors:

We celebrate another great Cougar success. It is our pleasure to announce that Steve Eubanks will serve as Head of School for Gross Catholic. Steve’s direct responsibilities, as Head of School, will focus on Advancement and Admissions, while maintaining overall leadership for Gross Catholic.

We also celebrate another significant promotion. Hana Abbott, who became Gross Catholic’s Assistant Principal in June 2023, has been promoted to serve as Gross Catholic’s Principal. Hana’s responsibilities will extend beyond the traditional role of Principal, however. Hana has demonstrated true strength in curriculum development, academic strategic planning, as well as financial operations. She will have responsibility for the educational offering at Gross Catholic, as well as Finance and Building/Grounds Management.

Congratulations to Middleton House for winning this year's Cougar Cup!

As we conclude this year of House, I think we also need to reflectively consider our students and the goal of our House system. We have the best students, and this Holy Week we should all say a prayer for them to continue to be people who set a tone for a positive culture. Culture always wins, and our students prove at events like Field Day and Mission Day that they are, indeed, cooperative, kind, respectful, likeable, loving, beautiful people.
