Dear St. Joseph Family and Friends,
As the new principal at St. Joseph’s, I
am excited about the upcoming school year.
St. Joseph School has a rich history of
academic, cultural, and spiritual excellence in the Catholic School tradition
on the Big Island. I look
forward to working with the dedicated faculty and staff, families, and friends to
provide the best possible educational program for our students.
To strengthen our partnership between
home and school, let me tell you about myself. I earned my Bachelors of Science degree from East
Stroudsburg University in Elementary Education and a Masters of Science in
Education from Shippensburg University, both in Pennsylvania. I completed my School Administrative
Credential from Chapman University. CA. in 1982 and received a Juris Doctorate from Monterey College of Law, CA.
in 1999. I have spent my career
teaching from pre-kindergarten through twelfth grades in both public and
private schools and in administration in Catholic Schools.
My intention is to provide the leadership
at St. Joseph’s to facilitate a school environment that meets the needs of each
student and provides expanded opportunities for our students. These opportunities emphasize life skills
necessary to become productive and responsible citizens in our future society. I invite you into our learning community, in hopes that all
who enter St. Joseph’s achieve their highest potential in life and in service
to Christ.
We invite you to attend our 23rd Annual
Country Fair on October 3rd. This is our largest fundraiser, helping us
to continue our legacy of learning. As always. thank you for your donations of time, talent, and treasures
to St. Joseph's.
Peace & All Good,
Victoria Torcolini, Principal
