Throughout the week, we will celebrate with a variety of activities on our campuses and within the wider community to show our gratitude and support. These events underscore the immense value Catholic education provides to our young people and its enduring contributions to the Church, our communities, and our nation. Please see the attached flyer for a full schedule of events.
As Saint John Paul II reminds us: “The mission of the Catholic school is the integral formation of students, so that they may be true to their condition as Christ's disciples and as such work effectively for the evangelization of culture and for the common good of society.”
