Hello Century Panther Community,

I am privileged to serve as principal of Century High School beginning in the 2024-25 school year. I served last year as one of Century’s assistant principals and I was the principal at Stewartville High School for the four years prior. I taught high school science for 19 years in Minnesota and Wisconsin before transitioning to school administration. 

I am a proud 1999 graduate of St. John’s University in Collegeville, MN. I earned my Masters of Education Degree from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities in 2006 and my School Administrative Leadership license from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2011. 

I am a growth-minded, positive-thinking, solutions-focused leader who strives to see students and staff realize the full potential of their talents. This is an exciting and evolving time for education and I stand ready to lead Century alongside our committed staff and supportive families. 

Away from school, I enjoy the time I spend with my wife Kay, our two sons, Tommy and Joey, and our golden retriever, Lucky. I especially enjoy coaching my boys’ various sports teams and traveling as a family to create lasting memories. When I have the opportunity, I love to golf, read, listen to podcasts, and spend time with friends. 

Go Panthers!

Kindly,

Patrick Breen, Principal
