“Doug Moore is a faith-filled, hard-working man whose dedication and loyalty to our school and our mission has been clearly evident over the last 20-plus years that he has been part of our staff,” said Thomas Maloney, President. “It is an exciting time at Lansing Catholic, and I am eager to serve with Mr. Moore to fully implement this new administrative structure in ways that can help us become increasingly the Catholic High School God intends it to be.”
“I am humbled but privileged to have this role in the Lansing Catholic community. The mission of our school, as part of the broader Church, is to form the whole person spiritually, intellectually, morally, and socially. Wow, that's a noble task! I, and our entire staff, need to be sustained by prayer to continually and effectively make this happen. I am looking forward to embracing our new patron saint, Pope St. John Paul the Great, who called the entire world to refocus on the dignity of each human person and to open wide the doors of our hearts to Christ. We need to continue our great history of excellence and complement it with charity,” said Mr. Moore.
