Sister
Maureen Glahn, CDP
First
Principal of
Providence High School
Sep 1951
- Dec 1964 |
Sister Maureen Glahn, CDP,
was the first principal of Providence High School, which opened in September, 1951. She guided the academic and extracurricular
life of the school until she died suddenly after a brief illness on December 20, 1964.
Totally dedicated to Providence High
School, Sister Maureen was noted for her insistence on high standards of excellence in all areas. She was pleased when
students did well, not only for the school's good name but also for the young woman's growth.
However, she was relentless when improvement was needed.
One of Sister Maureen's major goals was
for the school to have its own gymnasium. She began the "gym fund," which became the focus of major
projects for years, She did not to live to see the achievement of her dream, but she was very much
present in spirit when the gym was dedicated in her memory on March 12, 1966.
The Providence High School community
commits itself to maintaining the high standards that Sister Maureen set in 1951.
