The Archdiocese of Denver has announced the resignation of Erich Hoffer, President of Bishop Machebeuf High School, effective immediately. Hoffer will be relocating to Minnesota to assume the position of Head of School at St. Hubert Catholic School in Chanhassen.

“While this is a bittersweet exit, I am extremely blessed to have called the Archdiocese of Denver home for five years and to have served as the school leader for Bishop Machebeuf for the last two years. I am proud of what we have accomplished together in the vineyard of the Lord,” said Hoffer.

Hoffer's leadership and commitment have been noted within the community. His contributions to both Christ the King and Bishop Machebeuf were highlighted by his “magnetic personality and authenticity of joyful witness.” However, he emphasized that these achievements were not solely his own. “The success we’ve seen at Bishop Machebeuf is primarily because of the often-unheralded work that our faculty and staff are doing daily and the commitment of faithful parents who understand the importance of faithful Christian formation,” he stated.

Dr. Kemmery Hill, incoming Superintendent of Denver Catholic Schools, remarked on Hoffer’s impact: “We will miss Erich for many reasons, not least of which is his support for renewal in our schools and his zeal for evangelization. We are deeply thankful for Erich’s tireless efforts and steadfast devotion. Under his stewardship, Bishop Machebeuf has flourished, nurturing the faith and intellect of countless students.”

In a final note, Hoffer expressed gratitude towards those who supported him during his tenure: “I want to thank the Archdiocese of Denver, our Bishop Machebeuf parents, and the BMHS team for holding steadfast to the idea that each child deserves a true encounter with Jesus Christ. Your belief in our sacred work is why I feel confident that this mission and vision will continue.”

Bishop Machebeuf High School is actively recruiting its next President to join its leadership team in the fall.
