Maureen DePriest Takes On New Leadership Roles

Maureen DePriest has been a Catholic educator for more than 20 years. After leaving the classroom, she’s served as principal of Notre Dame Catholic School before becoming the founding principal of St. Frances Cabrini. Later, she served as the Director of Mission Schools and Special Projects with the
Archdiocesan Catholic Education Office.

After many years of proven academic excellence, it is with great excitement that we announce Maureen DePriest has been promoted to Associate Superintendent for Elementary School Administration, following in the footsteps of Alan “Al” Winkelmann, whose retirement was announced earlier this year.

In addition to taking on this new leadership role, Maureen DePriest has accepted a position on the Access Academies Board of Directors.

Other organizations DePriest actively supports include the Today and Tomorrow Educational Foundation and the Principal Institute.

Previously, DePriest has been a convention speaker for the National Catholic Education Association. She’s also been a member of the Mayor’s Task Force on Education, St. Louis University Catholic Leadership Advisory Committee, Vincentian Partners Against Poverty Board, Youth Initiative Committee and the English Tutoring Project.
