Through her various roles in education she has had the opportunity to work with administrators and educators offering professional development within the Diocese of Toledo on aspects of curriculum, instruction, methodology, and tools for assessing learning.  Mrs. Curtis holds a Bachelor of Education with an emphasis on Early Childhood, and a Master of Education with an emphasis on Curriculum and Teaching from Lourdes College.  In addition, she has continued her studies at Columbia University’s Teacher College Reading and Writing Institute in New York City.  Joining this illustrious group of educators at Columbia allowed her to be instructed by some of the most well known researchers of reading and writing in the field of education. 

Mrs. Curtis truly believes that she has a responsibility to take care of herself as a learner and a dreamer, carrying forward the message of hope to other educators, parents, and especially our children.  When she is not leading her school, coaching teachers, and instructing students, she enjoys spending all of her time with her husband Mike of twenty years and their two sons, Jacob (18 years old) and Joshua (15 years old).  She is sure that “family” gives her the fuel to do more in life beyond being a mother and wife.

“Being a Catholic school principal is an amazing profession.  It is challenging, dynamic, and energizing – but most of all, it is rewarding.  The impact of a principal extends far beyond anything anyone can imagine.  Being a Catholic school principal is not only a ministry, but a privilege,” says Mrs. Curtis.
