Bishop Announces Change in Leadership at Cardinal Newman High School
SANTA ROSA, CA
Laura Held, President of Cardinal Newman High School in Santa Rosa since 2014 will no longer represent the High School. During her six years at Newman, Laura Held has faced enormous challenges including most notably the partial destruction of the School in 2017 in the Tubbs Fire and this year the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bishop and the Board are grateful to Ms. Held for her leadership in these times of crisis.
At the same time the present challenge of rebuilding, while already begun, now requires a change in leadership to more fully engage with the School Community as well as the broader Community of Santa Rosa and Sonoma County.
Dr. Linda Norman, Superintendent for Diocese of Santa Rosa Catholic Schools, will assume temporarily the role of President of Cardinal Newman and will help guide the search process to find a new president.
