Mrs. Hockley is our Bus Driver. Our Energy Bus, that is. Whether she is doing cartwheels at morning prayers, working with faculty and parents to create our opening plan or counseling a student, she is the positive energy that our school runs on. She sees Catholic education as a gift that changed her world as a young person and she wants to be an instrument for others to unlock their God-given gifts in service to the greater good. In her 20 years of experience in Catholic education, her greatest joy is always seeing a student realize the depth of their conviction in our faith tradition. She is excited to be the first principal of St. John Neumann Catholic School and looks forward to seeing how our community will write this new chapter!!  "Greet all as Christ" from The Rule of St. Benedict is the quote that she strives to live by.
