Good afternoon Eagle Nation!
It is with much excitement that I announce that we have hired Dave Marrese to be OLP's Director of Advancement. In this new position, Mr. Marrese will take on initiatives in communication, enrollment, marketing, social media, fundraising, and alumni relations. No doubt this will be a big job for Dave but I am more than confident he is up for the task. As OLP grows this particular position is critical to promote our story to new families and to ensure we are effectively communicating and taking care of our current families.
A note from Mr. Marrese:
Greetings Eagle Nation-
My name is Dave Marrese and I am thrilled to have recently accepted the position of Director of Advancement at Our Lady of Peace. Within this position, it will be my responsibility to both promote our school throughout the greater South Minneapolis community, as well as ensure that our current students and families are always engaged and informed. It goes without saying that this last school year has been a challenge (both for faculty as well as for students and their families) and the unknowns that remain for the 2020-21 academic year only add more stress as we try to plan ahead. My vision for this role will be to act as a liaison between the administration and you; to ensure you are communicated to clearly and in a timely fashion so that you feel empowered and confident that your child is getting the most out of their OLP education.
As a parent of 3 current eagles (Ben – 3rd, Charlie – 1st, Megan – Pre-K) and one future eagle (Joey) anxiously awaiting his turn, I have a vested interest in the success of our school. I am proud of the work that has been done here and am excited about what lies ahead. Of course, no matter what I may bring to the staff, I simply cannot succeed without the feedback (both positive and negative) and involvement from stakeholders like you. Please do not hesitate to reach out via email, phone or in-person. I am committed to advancing Our Lady of Peace School and can’t wait to get started.

Please take the time to congratulate and welcome Dave Marrese to his new position at OLP!
ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL, YOU SAY!?!?
That's right! I said it! With Mr. Marrese stepping in as Director of Advancement and being able to take responsibilities off Mrs. Schuchman's plate I have decided to change her title to Assistant Principal and shift some of her job duties. Mrs. Schuchman has her teaching license, a Masters in Special Education, an Educational Specialist Degree, and is a license administrator!. Mrs. Schuchman will still be working with students in the Learning Center but the breadth of her administrative duties will expand.
Please congratulated Mrs. Schuchman on her new role at OLP!
I AM SO EXCITED!!! OLP is flying high!
God Bless,
Paul Berry | Principal
