According to school officials, Brad Humphreys, formerly the upper school principal at Oak Forest Academy in Amite, will be serving as Holy Cross School's principal and bringing along with him 27 years of experience in the field of education.
'My passion for teaching began in a small parochial school in which most of thestudents would become the first in their families to attend college,' said Humphreys, speaking on his career. 'While I pushed my kids hard, it was done within an environment of humor and respect, as I watched them overcome their fears and rise to the challenge. Seeing them develop confidence and self-motivation propelled me to further my own education to advance into administrative roles where I could have a more profound impact on the student body at large.'
