My name is Laura Heatwole and I am the principal at St. Paul Catholic School.  I have a master's degree in educational leadership and received my bachelor's degree from Northern Michigan University.  I have a varied background through my years in education including teaching at several levels, working on building school improvement teams and serving on the local school board.   I love working with the dedicated staff and the wonderful children and families who make up our Bluewave family!  This is my ninth year here at St. Paul.  All of us here enjoy spending our days working with such wonderful children!  They grow so quickly, in so many ways, and we are all so proud of them!  Thank you for your help and support as we work together to guide these precious children along on their faith journey.   It is certainly a task that requires teamwork!  We all appreciate your time, talent, treasure, and, most importantly, your prayers as we work to help each and every Bluewave fulfill God’s plan for them.   As our mission statement concludes, “God is our focus, and heaven our goal!”  May God continue to Bless you all! 

Peace and Blessings,
Laura Heatwole
