Catholic Programs

As a faith community, our Catholic education system seeks to provide learning opportunities that recognizes the dignity of each person, encourages social justice and challenges students and staff to become“ fully alive. In all of our schools, the Religion and Family Life programs encourage spontaneous moments of prayer and community building. Through reflection, dialogue, study and prayer, students deepen their understanding of the spirit and strengthen their relationships with God, each other and their communities.

Religion/Family Life Programs

Catholic schools are to be authentic communities of the Catholic Faith where teachers share their Faith through daily prayer and witness to the Gospel values. The school is a caring community of the Church where the dignity of each person is recognized, where social justice is encouraged within and by the Church, and where students are challenged to become "fully alive".

Ontario Catholic Graduate Expectations

Distinctive expectations for graduates of Catholic schools are determined and shaped by the vision and destiny of the human person emerging from our faith tradition. This Christian anthropology or world view, reveals the dignity and value of the person. Our tradition tells us God creatively and lovingly calls each of us into the wonder of life, sustaining us by the power of the Holy Spirit, throughout the human journey, into life eternal.

Our Chaplains/Faith Animators: provide a ministry of presence and leadership in the spiritual professional development of members of our education community; participate in the implementation of bereavement and crisis intervention programs and teams, as required; and much more.
