Dear Saint Juliana Falconieri Parents,
My journey as the principal of Saint Juliana Falconieri Catholic School will be coming to an end on June 30, 2025. As I prepare to embark on a new chapter, I want to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to all who have played a role in my 14 wonderful years at Saint Juliana.
First and foremost, I want to thank Father Mike Pontarelli for his support and the opportunity to lead this school. To the dedicated faculty and staff, your steadfast commitment to our students and the Saint Juliana community has been truly inspiring. It has been an honor to work alongside such passionate and devoted educators.
To our incredible parents and the entire parish community, thank you for your trust, support, and belief in Saint Juliana School. I hope you have felt the strong partnership we have nurtured together in shaping the educational and spiritual growth of our students. Your dedication to our school has been invaluable.
And to the students of Saint Juliana Falconieri School—each of you has brought immense joy and inspiration into my life. Your enthusiasm, curiosity, and kindness have brightened even the darkest days, and I will always cherish the memories we have created together.
As we move forward, I ask for your prayers for Father Mike Pontarelli and all those involved in selecting the next principal to lead this wonderful and faith-filled community. I have every confidence that Saint Juliana Falconieri School will continue to thrive and uphold its mission of excellence in education and Catholic values.
Blessings,
Dr. Manuel Gonzales Jr.
Principal
