Anyone in- amormanffill Sharpe new principal at St. Boniface School David Sharpe, who began his ap- pointment as principal of St. Boniface on September 2, is no stranger to this area. He has been with the Huron - Perth Separate School board since the early seventies, teaching at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel for six years and Holy Name of Mary in St. Marys for two. Sharpe moved from principal of St. Joseph's in Kingsbridge north of Goderich (student population 87) to an expanding St. Boniface. With the closure of Ecole Ste. Marie, the Zurich school's enrollment has in- creased from 170 last year to 210 this September. Construction on a large addition which will add two classrooms, a library, a resource cen- tre, change rooms and new office facilities is scheduled to begin soon. Sharpe's concept of the prime pur- ,� pose of education, and his respon- sibilities as a principal, have been moulded by his own experiences as a product of the separate school system in his native Walkerton. He maintains every child has the right to a well- rounded education - academically, socially, intellectually, emotionally and spiritually - in a child centred pro- gram that allows each individual to reach his/her achievement potential. He believes this can be accomplish- ed through principal and teachers working together to continually im- prove the quality of instruction, fostering Catholic values throughout the curriculum, showing the children by example how to live the faith, and involving the whole Catholic com- munity in the school to keep the faith alive, strong and growing. Noting his conviction that a prin- cipal should be highly visible, Sharpe has already discussed with his staff his intention of working with in- dividuals and groups of children needing extra help in any area, as well as teaching grade seven and eight religion. Sharpe empathizes with students who are having difficulty in school. "I've been through it. Although I had always wanted to be a teacher, it took awhile to get my act together", Sharpe confessed. Sharpe admits he was not a good student in high school.

One year at Waterloo Lutheran Universi- ty was followed by another at Guelph before enrolling as part of the last graduating class at Stratford Teachers College in 1971-72. Since joining the Huron -Perth Separate School board, Sharpe has received his BA with a major in psychology and sociology, and a MEd in educational psychology and ad- ministration through night courses at UWO. Sharpe has set a personal goal of getting to know each and every one of his students by Christmas, and in- tends to carry on the St. Boniface traditions of the popular annual operetta, and the entertaining Christmas concert. Sharpe and his family are now liv- ing in Grand Bend, having exchang- ed one lake setting for another.
