- I am also very displeased with the school. The "new" principal is much too rigid and does not care about the school. I graduated from the school during the time that S. Elizabeth McNeela was there. She was a very good principal and was always available to anyone who wanted or needed to talk to her. The new principal has the secretary make her appointments for her and it is difficult to get an appointment. I waited eight days for an appointment. I finally withdrew my children.
