Chaminade High School in Mineola announced Monday it is appointing alumnus Brian Crimmins as the preparatory school’s first-ever chief operating officer.
Crimmins, who graduated in 1995, served on the school’s Board of Advisors prior to his appointment. Professionally, Crimmins was the CEO of Changing Our World Inc., a philanthropy and management consulting firm.
“Chaminade High School has a tremendous history of educating the whole man – body, mind and soul. And, as someone who personally experienced this opportunity, as did my brothers, my brothers-in-law, my nephew, and my father-in-law, I understand the importance of developing Chaminade Men for our society today,” Crimmins said in a statement. “In addition, I’m excited to take 22-plus years of consulting – including with many colleges and high schools – and bringing that experience to my work at Chaminade.”
Part of Crimmins’ responsibilities will include reporting to President Bro. Thomas Cleary and collaborating with other key administrators, the school said in a release.
“We are thrilled to welcome home Brian Crimmins ’95 as our first-ever chief operating officer,” said Thomas. “His track record of leadership, dedication to education, and commitment to our Chaminade Family aligns perfectly with the need to support our current and future operational plans and strategies.”
Thomas said Crimmins will help plan for the school’s 100th anniversary in 2030.
Chaminade’s yearly enrollment includes 1,700 students and has over 22,000 alumni worldwide. The school’s alumni association has nine regional chapters nationally.
