自慰视频 initiative will cultivate Catholic education leaders across Ireland

鈥淭he initiative aims to equip aspiring and current Irish Catholic leaders with the theological grounding, professional skills, and collaborative networks necessary to articulate and embody the distinctive ethos and values of Catholic education for the 21st century,鈥� said聽 Roche Center Executive Director Melodie Wyttenbach.聽 "Having witnessed the transformative impact of our leadership programs in the United States for the past 15 years, we are thrilled to partner with the Irish Catholic educational community to cultivate a new wave of leaders who are deeply committed to the mission of Catholic education."
She noted that the new program will particularly address the increased disassociation from spiritual concerns, the evolving educational expectations, and the changing governance structures in Ireland鈥檚 Catholic educational system.聽 By investing in these leaders, says Wyttenbach, the Roche Center seeks to ensure that Irish Catholic schools will flourish and remain true to their mission while actively engaging with contemporary society.
Angela Mitchell
Angela Mitchell, a seasoned Irish educator with over 20 years of experience working in the Irish education system as a teacher, school leader, and mentor of leaders across the network, will assume the role of director of Leadership Formation-Ireland. Mitchell will be responsible for designing and implementing a variety of leadership programs intended to strengthen institutional governance.聽
聽鈥淭his timely initiative recognizes the critical juncture at which Irish Catholic education stands,鈥� said Mitchell.聽 鈥淎s leadership transitions occur and younger educators assume key roles, this project will provide the necessary support and formation to ensure the continued vitality and Catholic identity of our schools.鈥�
The program is聽generously funded by Kristine Trustey and Sean McGraw on behalf of the Trustey Family Foundation, said Wyttenbach, in partnership with the Dublin-based Boston College Ireland,聽which serves as a permanent location for 自慰视频鈥檚 Irish Institute, as well as an in-country resource for the University鈥檚 Irish Studies Program, Burns Library, international student programs and outreach to political, business, and educational leaders in both the republic and Northern聽Ireland.
The Barbara and Patrick Roche Center for Catholic Education, established by the 自慰视频 Board of Trustees in 2007 and located at the Lynch School of Education and Human Development, builds on more than a half-century of research, teaching, and outreach related to Catholic schools. 聽The center assembles under one banner strategic initiatives to develop vibrant and revitalized models for the future of Catholic education.
