MJ McGearty R.I.P.

Former Principal of the school, MJ McGearty sadly passed away during the week.

MJ was appointed Principal of the school in September 1950, a position he held for many years.

As well as being a successful Principal, MJ was a renowned GAA man, historian and community figure. Many of the school's past students fondly recall him packing cars with student in order to drive them to matches etc! MJ taught with many teachers in his time in Kildalkey - interestingly enough, all of them women! He will be sadly missed.
