🎙️ Catholic School Leaders Podcast

Episode Title: Mid-Summer Check-In: Budgeting, Staffing, and Setting the Tone

Host: John Mihalyo


In this episode, I dive into what’s keeping Catholic school leaders up at night in July—and what you can do about it. From budget shortfalls and open teaching positions to enrollment follow-ups and planning a meaningful faculty work week, I break down key priorities and offer practical steps you can take right now to set your school year up for success.


🔑 Key Takeaways:

  • Review your budget and enrollment status—then make a plan
  • Reconnect with families who’ve shown interest, even last year
  • Advancement directors: know your goal and map your year
  • Fill open positions with the right people
  • Don’t waste faculty work week—use it to inspire and align your team
