By Margaret Taranto, Principal | |
Beloved Math Department Chair, Masterminds moderator, and scheduler extraordinaire, Nancy Manning has announced her retirement at the end of this academic year.
Academy of the Holy Names has been blessed to have Mrs. Manning dedicating her heart and soul to our school for the last 45 years.
I am sad for our school but happy for Nancy and the new adventures that await her.
