Holy Trinity Catholic School in Okarche has hired a new principal.

Alice Newman, a native of southwest Oklahoma, has 27 years of teaching experience and a masters degree in school administration, according to a news release form the school.

Newman also has a background in public relations and marketing and is a former director of religious education.

“We are excited to have Mrs. Newman here with us as our new principal at Holy Trinity,” said Rev. Cory Stanley. “Holy Trinity Catholic School has a long history of excellence and enjoys strong support from our families, our alumni, and our community. I am eager to collaborate with Mrs. Newman as we continue building upon this solid foundation.”

Newman said one of the first things she did as new principal was send out an extensive survey to parents.

“We got valuable feedback and were pleased to see such positive reviews,” Newman said. “The thing that stood out most was that 100% of parents who responded said they would recommend Holy Trinity to other families. We look forward to building on that strength and increasing enrollment numbers.”

Newman said that she is happy to be at Holy Trinity.
