The September 28, 2021 Regular Board Meeting was the last, which will be attended by Director of Education Deb Crawford.  Her retirement, which she announced last March, takes effect on September 30, 2021.

“Deb we want you to know how much we have appreciated your leadership over these past several years,” said John Van Heck, Chair of the Board.  “Your service to Catholic education stretches back 38 years.  You’ve been with St. Clair Catholic for 20 of those years, and we are truly grateful for that!”

As a surprise for Mrs. Crawford, her family, including her husband, children, grandchildren and brother, joined the meeting virtually, as Trustees led a service of prayer and blessing.

“May you retire confidently, knowing that St. Clair Catholic will remember your influence,” said Mat Roop, Vice-Chair of the Board.  “May you take leave of your career knowing that the work you leave to others will continue to flourish in your absence.  And may you take hold of your new-found freedom with the same enthusiasm that you have given your work.”

Scott Johnson assumes the role of Director of Education on October 1, 2021.
