A Word of Thanks

During her installation address at the Mass of the Holy Spirit on September 25, 2009, Head of School Pamela Juan Hayes ’64 said:

“The old and new are closely interwoven. The new grows out of the old, and the old finds fuller expression in the new. And so, today, after looking over my shoulder at past school accomplishments, I fix my gaze on what lies ahead. I pray that what we begin today will lead each and everyone associated with the School to challenge themselves to become that better educator, administrator, student, parent as an individual who possesses a deep respect and conviction for the work we have been called to do and the heritage we are called to proclaim.”

More than ten years later, with Mrs. Hayes’ retirement on the horizon, that very address she gave during her first mass on campus predicted the transformational leadership she would provide this community on King Street. During her time as Head of School, she accomplished so much but arguably her greatest accomplishment was harnessing the School’s history and mission to drive forward progress and change.

As we reflect back on her legacy of innovation and progress, her original words continue to ring true. “We will not look back and say ‘it might have been.’ We will say that recognizing the opportunity, we galvanized as a community to make it happen.”

Congratulations, Mrs. Hayes, from the entire Sacred Heart community on all you have done for this School and all that is still to come.
