The secondment of principal Mark Searson to the position of Assistant to the Director of Education has resulted in some changes to the administration team here at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School.
Mr. Brennan Trainor, formerly vice-principal, now moves into the principal position, and brings with him a wealth of diverse experience to draw upon as he undertakes his new responsibilities. Mr Trainor, prior to his arrival last year at St. Joseph’s, had served several years in the position of vice-principal at Bishop Smith Catholic High School in Pembroke, one of the largest schools, if not the largest, in Renfrew County.
Prior to that posting, Trainor had served as both a teacher and principal’s designate of St. Thomas the Apostle School, right over there on the other side of the fence. The St. Joseph’s school community welcomes Mr. Trainor to his new responsibilities
and wishes him the very best.
St. Joseph’s also welcomes a new addition to our administration team, vice-principal Heidi Robinson.
Ms. Robinson has spent many years next door as well, moving from several different teaching assignments over her career to the position of vice-principal of St. Thomas the Apostle. In addition, Ms. Robinson simultaneously served as vice-principal of John XXIII Catholic School in Arnprior, Ontario.
Active and enthusiastic in the undertaking of her responsibilities, Ms. Robinson is a welcomed and valuable addition to the school, and we look forward to working with her as the year progresses.
