 Welcome Back Mr. Hart - Mr. Russ Hart
has been named assistant superintendent for the 2010-2011 school year at St.
Joseph Catholic School. Mr. Hart has a Bachelor of Science in Industrial
Technology Education, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Masters degree
in Public School Administration. He comes to St. Joseph with 9 years of
experience as a principal in the diocese of Belleville – 3 years with St.
Joseph and 6 years with Gibault Catholic High School. Prior to being a
principal, Mr. Hart taught upper grade science at St. Mary Catholic School
in Belleville, and St. Joseph Catholic School in Ogden, Utah. Mr. Hart will
continue as principal of Gibault Catholic High School while he is serving as
assistant superintendent at St. Joseph.
Mr. Hart is looking forward to
reconnecting with the St. Joseph and Freeburg communities. He will work with
Fr. Mark Reyling and the board in the hiring of a new principal and
implementing the newly formed strategic plan. Among his duties, he will
concentrate on staff development, overseeing curriculum, and recruiting. In
addition, he is excited about being part of a communications upgrade which
is happening this summer at St. Joseph. School families will now receive
important information via School Reach, an automated telephone system, and
FastDirect, a computerized system which delivers classroom and school office
information.
“St. Joseph’s has such a rich history of producing outstanding
students – over 140 years! To have the opportunity to be a part of that
tradition is such a blessing. I’m truly looking forward to renewing
friendships and cultivating new ones as we work together to carry on that
tradition.”

Teacher Wish List
Each year the teachers fill out a wish list which is placed in a
binder in the teachers' lounge. Many people were not aware of this.
The following is a list of items
that were requested by our teachers for their use this school year.
These items may be something that you have around your home that you no
longer need. Please take a look at the list to see if there is anything
you may be able to provide.
Thank you for your generosity.
