ST. LAWRENCE DEANERY — Mother of Mercy High School has welcomed Kirsten MacDougal as its first president.

During this past year, the high school’s board of trustees and administration went through a comprehensive search process to find just the right fit to continue Mercy’s long tradition of excellence and position the school for the future.

MacDougal comes to Mercy from Alter High School in Kettering where she served as the communications and marketing director for the last five years. Prior to that, she worked extensively in the business world in sales, marketing, management and finance.

MacDougal holds bachelor’s degrees from Rollins College in Winter Park, Fla., and Mercyhurst College, a Sisters of Mercy college in Erie, Pa.
