SHARON O’TOOLE, SCHOOL PRINCIPAL

I have worked in the Archdiocese of Chicago for over twenty years. Prior to becoming principal here at St. Alexander, I most recently served as the principal of St. Walter School in Chicago for four years and as Pre-K Director and teacher at Cardinal Joseph Bernardin School for nine years.

I have served as a member of the Archdiocese Task Force assisting in the development of a new School Improvement Plan format, which was implemented in all Archdiocese schools last year, and providing input on the teacher evaluation system that is currently used in Archdiocese schools. I currently serve as an officer on the Archdiocese Principal Association.

I completed my undergraduate work at Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights, and went on to earn a Master’s Degree in School Leadership from Concordia University in River Forest.

I am excited to join the St. Alexander community and look forward to moving the school towards a second Blue Ribbon School of Excellence Award in the coming years. The faculty, staff and school families have been most welcoming and supportive. I am proud to call myself a Raider!
