The Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh announced Friday the appointment of a new president of North Catholic High School.
Joseph Wilson, 48, was appointed to lead the Cranberry school by Bishop David Zubik on behalf of the Catholic High Schools of the Diocese of Pittsburgh member board.
“I am confident that you will continue to build upon the fine tradition of excellence that has always been a hallmark at North Catholic High School,” Bishop Zubik wrote to Mr. Wilson in an appointment letter. “May the Lord, in His goodness, continue to bless you as you begin this new role.”
Mr. Wilson, an alumnus of North Catholicl himself, received his undergraduate degree from Duquesne University and his Master’s of Science in Public Policy and Management at Carnegie Mellon University. Since 2003, Mr. Wilson has been a business manager at North Catholic.
