Keavy hopes school will
honor pontiff's legacy
By Kathleen Szmit

REALIZING A VISION - George A. Milot (left),
superintendent of schools of the Fall River
diocese,welcomes new principalChristopher
Keavy,a former Cape resident who served as
principal at Padua Franciscan High School
in Ohio.
It has often been said that men plan
and God laughs. It has also been said
that the Lord works inmysteriousways.
Right now Christopher Keavy is paying
close attention to the latter statement,
finding it rather true.
A little more than one week ago, Ke-
avy and his family were packingthe last
of their boxes in preparation for their
official move to Cape Cod. Keavy had
been named principal of the new Pope
John PaulIIHigh SchoolinHyannisand
was looking forward to, as he explained,
cominghome.
"IwasborninWarehamand grewup in
Mattapoisett,"he said. "Home feels like
something in your life and when you're
away from it, you realize it."
Although Keavy was enjoying his
employment at Padua Franciscan High
School in Parma, Ohio, there was a part
of him that continually longed for the
shores of Cape Cod. While he wasn't
openly searching,when helearned ofthe
Hyannisposition, "I onlyapplied for one
job," he said.
Officially on Cape for little more than
a week, Keavy is already immersing
himself in his new school. "This is an
administrator'sdream,"he said duringa
chat inthe makeshift mainoffice amidst
ongoingrenovationofthe building."Tobe
able to develop avision, and to take the
vision of the Gospel and what the com-
munitywants and [put them together]
is a dream."
Giventhat theschoolisawashinsheet
rock dust with saw horses in the halls,
it may seem strange to bring in the new
principal. On the contrary, Keavy notes
that the next year willbe quite full as he
assists in the final development of the
school. "I have plenty to do," he said.
"School isn't just intellect. It's arts,
athletics. School is all those intangible
things.We're in the planning stages."
Keavyplanstobeinvolvedinallaspects
ofpreparation at Pope John PaulII,hav-
ing been an integral part of a successful
Catholic high school while at Padua
Franciscan. "There'snot an aspect ofthe
school where I'm not involved,"he said,
noting that the planning taking place
right now involves not only opening in
fall 2007, but the 2011 school year when
the first classes will graduate.
The curriculum Keavy wants is a bal-
ance of college preparatory-levelcourses
and extra-curricular activities such as
sports and theater.Religion courses will
be arequirement."God isadailyreality,"
said Keavy. "I don't know why religion
wouldn't be."
While Keavy is happy to be a part of
the development process, he is anxious
for the days when students will crowd
the finished hallways."Schoolleadership
canbedeeplysatisfying,"he said."You're
doing something for other people that
givesgifts over and over again."
What propels Keavy in his endeavors
is a rock-solid faith. When making the
weighty decision on accepting the Pope
John PaulIIdecision,he admits to pray-
ing. It helped that the moniker of the
school was changed from St. Francis
XavierHighto Pope John PaulII."Ihave
a specialfondness for Pope John Paul II
and hislegacy,"Keavy explained."When
Isawthat the schoolwould be namedin
his legacy,it was a selling point."
Keavywouldliketo seePopeJohnPaul
II High School become a testament to
the pontiff's legacy, which he believes
was primarilyabout hope. "Doesn't hope
make whatever else you're doing that
much better?" he asked.
What also helped in Keavy's decision
wasthe tremendous support hereceived
from his wife, Debra, and their two
children, Billy, 7, and Shannon, 8. "I am
asking this of my family,but I trust that
there are rewards," said Keavy.
That he was able to quickly sell his
Ohio home and purchase a new one in
Yarmouthport and has so far been able
to transition into his new job smoothly
is all the proof Keavy needs to know he
made the right decision. "That'showyou
know things are right," he said, "when
they all come together."

School District's
director of
facilities and will
assist intracking
changes in

Barnstable School District has a
director of facilities. Joe Slominski,
formerly the town's structures and
grounds supervisor, assumed office
a bit more than a week ago and is
already immersed in the work.
"He has not been idle for one min-
ute,"said Supt. Dr.Patricia Grenier
after introducing him to the school
committee Tuesday."He is really
working the issues."
Slominski, who is "glad to be on
board," will assist in tracking changes
in enrollment while helping to prepare
short- and long-term plans for renova- .
tion, expansion or closure of school
buildings. He will also oversee then-
upkeep.
Shortly after his introduction, the
school committee approved the pur-
chase of a new truck for Slominski's
use.
