"Parent
participation and support are paramount to our school's success.
Our parents, along with a caring and dedicated faculty and staff,
create a strong community spirit and supportive environment. I am proud to represent the
community of dedicated staff members, wonderful students and
supportive parents who work together to make Good Shepherd an
outstanding model for Catholic Education in today’s demanding
world." - Mrs. Patricia Volan
In 1988, Mrs. Patricia Volan was selected as Principal to direct a completely lay
faculty at Good Shepherd School. With her vision and encouragement, the parish embarked on Campaign 2000 to generate funds for a kindergarten, library and computer lab.
The kindergarten was established in the fall of 1989. The computer lab and library were completed in 1990, and are now available to all students.
The summer of 1994 brought the beginning of the next phase of our growth by reconstructing the play areas in anticipation of a new multipurpose building. The multipurpose building was completed in early 1996, and another building was added that summer to make room for a science lab. For the 1999-2000 school year, the aging seventh and eighth grade portable classrooms were replaced with larger units.
Under Mrs. Volan's guidance, Good Shepherd School continues to provide quality education to the children and families of Good Shepherd and St. Peters Parishes, as well as the local area.
