New principal at Notre Dame Sister Michaelinda Plante, RSM, diocesan superintendent for elementary schools, and Sister Eileen C. Reed, RJM, president of the Religious of Jesus and Mary, have announced appointment of Sister Claudette LaPointe, RJM, as principal of Notre Dame School, Fall River. Sister LaPointe is a graduate of the former Jesus-Mary Academy in Fall River and holds a bachelor of science degree in elementary education from Fordham University and a master's degree from the University of New Hampshire. In addition, she completed a certificate program in elementary school administration at Bridgewater State College. Her previous experience has included teaching assignments at Holy Family School, Woonsocket, RI, and St. John's School, Bronx,
NY. From 1979 to 1985 she taught at Notre Dame School. She recently completed a sabbatical year of renewal at her community's motherhouse in Rome. In announcing the change, Sister Plante said: "We have been very blessed with the presence of Sister Helene Dussault for the past six years as principal at Notre Dame. Her gentle manner and her love for Catholic education have been a strong force at the school and at our elementary principals' meetings. "Sister Claudette, of course, brings her enthusiasm and her great spirit to Notre Dame. The fact that she taught there for six years a while back is a plus because she will already know many of the families and supporters of the school.··
