Red Deer Catholic’s superintendent completes Doctorate of Education
The Superintendent of Red Deer Catholic Regional Schools recently upgraded her education.
Kathleen Finnigan recently received her Doctorate of Education from the Werklund School of Education at the University of Calgary.
Now Dr. Finnigan, she focused on educational research within the K-12 system for her doctoral studies, with a specialization in educational leadership, the school division shares.
“This educational journey provided me with opportunities to learn and understand more deeply the importance of high-leverage leadership practices that positively influence teachers’ instructional practices and in turn, and most importantly, student achievement,” says Finnigan.
