Dear Holy Cross Catholic School and Parish Community,
It is with mixed emotions that I write to you today. After much prayer, discernment, and consideration, I am being called in a different direction for the next school year and have accepted an offer to be the Principal at Visitation School in Kansas City, MO.
Throughout my fourteen years at Holy Cross, I have had the honor and privilege to serve as a Kindergarten teacher, Instructional Coach, and Principal. The unwavering support, dedication, and love of this community have made my time here truly fulfilling and I will always hold these experiences near and dear to my heart. Together, we have celebrated milestones, overcome challenges, and strengthened our bonds as a faith-filled family. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to have played a small part in your lives, and I carry with me the countless memories we share together.
As I prepare to embark on this new journey, I take comfort in knowing that the spirit of resilience, compassion, and faith that defines this community will continue to shine brightly for generations to come. I am so proud of how our community has grown and look forward to seeing how much Holy Cross Catholic School will accomplish in the future. You will always hold a special place in my heart, and I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
May God bless you abundantly and guide you in all your endeavors. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your journey.
With heartfelt gratitude and blessings,
Melissa Wagner Ed.D
Principal
