082520 George BoschiniKERNERSVILLE — Bishop McGuinness High School has announced George Boschini as interim principal for the 2020-2021 school year.

A principal for many years, Boschini brings a wealth of parochial and public school administrative experience and is eager to lead and serve the Bishop McGuinness High School community. His tenure is effective immediately, according to a release from Dr. Gregory P. Monroe, Superintendent of Catholic Schools.

Boschini, a parishioner of St. Pius X Church in Greensboro, retired in 2018 after 41 years in education with the last 27 in school administration.

Since retirement, he has served as an interim administrator for the Guilford County School system. Prior to his retirement, Boschini held teaching positions in the Fairfax County (VA) Public School System and later served as the Teacher Evaluation Coordinator in their Central Office.

He has 26 years in administrative experience shared between the Diocese of Raleigh Catholic School System, Alamance Burlington School System, Charlotte Mecklenburg Schools, and Guilford County Schools.

“As we begin this new school year, my primary focus will be on creating and maintaining a safe learning environment for our students, staff and families. This will allow Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School to focus on academic excellence in an environment where our Catholic faith is both celebrated and a part of everything we do. Extra-curricular activities and programs are an essential element of the high school experience and we are committed to offering these as much as possible,” said Boschini, a dynamic and energetic leader with a passion for Catholic education.

“We are extremely grateful to Mr. Randy Quarles and his whole leadership team for their hard work and for leading Bishop McGuinness this summer as we prepared for the start of another school year.

“Additionally, we want to thank our Bishop McGuinness principal search committee for vetting candidates this past summer and for ultimately leading us to Mr. Boschini.

“Looking ahead, Mr. Boschini is the right fit and the right leader for Bishop McGuinness to lead through this year. He has the experience and traits needed to ensure our wonderful school continues to flourish and remain dedicated to helping our students become missionary disciples of Christ,” said Dr. Monroe.

“Bishop McGuinness has a rich tradition of being a school where all students feel welcome and are able to experience success, which I witnessed firsthand as our sons graduated from BMCHS in 2007 and 2009. My commitment, by working together as a school and faith community, is to build on these traditions and legacy,” Boschini said.

A formal search will begin this fall for the school’s permanent principal, whose term will begin on or before the start of the 2021-2022 school year.
