DANIELSON — Henry Fiore Jr., dioc- esan superintendent of schools, along with Fr. John O’Neill, has announced that Mrs. Linda Marie Joyal has been appointed principal of St. James School in Danielson, effective Aug. 1. Joyal will succeed current Principal Monique Almquist, who has successful- ly served as principal for several years. Joyal has an extensive background in education in both Catholic and public schools. She taught at Windham High School, St. Bridget’s School in Manchester, St. Bernard’s School in Rockville, and St. Joseph’s School in North Grosvenordale. She had vast administrative experience from Putnam High School, where she served as assistant principal and principal. Joyal has a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Secondary Education from Annhurst College, a Master of Arts degree in Reading from Easter State, and certification in Administration and Supervision from the University of Connecticut at Storrs. Fiore welcomes Joyal as “…an experienced professional with impeccable cre- dentials who is a model of her faith, as she is an extremely active parishioner at St. Philip the Apostle Church.” Mr. Fiore also expressed the gratitude of the students and parents of St. James School to Ms. Almquist for providing excellence in leadership. Fiore, Fr. O’Neill members of the St. James Board of Directors and the entire St. James school community welcome Joyal.
