School Board

The Catholic school is an expression of the educational mission of the parish with which it is associated and of the Archdiocese of Boston. Therefore, the Pastor is responsible to the Archbishop for the administration of the total parish, including the parish school. The Principal functions as the chief administrator of the school and is a member of the parish staff. Regular and open communication between the Pastor and the Principal is essential.

Just as the parish council serves with the pastor on behalf of the total parish community, so the parish school board serves the Principal for the good of the school community. With the many demands on schools today, a Catholic school principal needs advice from a group of people who are committed to the Catholic school and are willing to work for the good of the school and parish.
