Our Principal

About Mme Bolopue

I am very honored to join the L’Etoile du Nord French Immersion team for the remainder of the 2024-25 school year as your Interim Principal. I most recently served as the Middle School Assistant Principal at Capitol Hill Gifted and Talented Magnet School, and I want to express my sincerest enthusiasm and optimism to be working collaboratively with the LNFI community. I am grateful to have worked with Saint Paul Public Schools as a science teacher at Highland Park Senior High School, as well as having experienced numerous roles in our summer session programs. I am now grateful to continue developing my capacity as an administrator with SPPS. While my profession is in education, my most celebrated accomplishment is my family. My partner and I are lucky to have a busy household of seven children ranging in age from 11 to 21, along with multiple community involvement roles to keep life entertaining and fulfilled. Four of our children are currently pursuing post-secondary degrees; then we have a 7th grader and two 5th graders currently enrolled in our neighborhood schools. Our family is passionate about sports (soccer, hockey, and football are some of our favorites), we enjoy outdoor adventures (kayaking and camping), and we love traveling to visit family as much as we are able. While my focus during the day will primarily be on our students and staff, I always welcome visitors, phone calls, and emails. Please reach out any time with questions and feedback about your experiences at L’Etoile du Nord!
