Joan D. Thomas, president and principal of Holy Angels Academy, has recently announced that the school will be adding a principal to its administrative roster, and that she will continue in her role of president.

Kathleen Fitch Tedesco, a 17-year veteran of Holy Angels, has been named to this position. Tedesco, currently associate for student affairs, will assume her new title as chief internal administrator on July 1.
Tedesco graduated from Holy Angels herself, and has worked at the academy since 1992. First she was a social studies teacher, then took on administrative roles. Tedesco lives with her husband and daughter in Buffalo.

Mary Colby has been named assistant principal, and will assume her new position on July 1 also. She will be responsible for managing student life and activities.
