William Donegan, born and raised in the Berwyn/Cicero, area is pleased to serve as both Principal and part-time teacher, for his parish school. Both his sons attend the school where he began teaching in 1994. “My primary job as principal is to facilitate the creation of a Christ-centered, positive, safe and loving environment for the children, parents and teachers. My job as teacher is to motivate each child to want to learn by providing a structured, disciplined and comfortable atmosphere in which children expect to learn and feel challenged. I enjoy teaching most when all the students become involved in the process. No amount of money makes me feel as good as I feel when a struggling student learns how to do something.” Mr. Donegan holds multiple degrees including a B.a. in History from North Central College and an M.a. in Administration from Concordia University. In his classroom and in his office, he always allows time for discussion. “Education does not just happen through books. Discussions may begin from a moral perspective or from something random. But, discussions always seem to be meaningful.”
