Catholic Schools Week

Catholic Schools Week 2012 will begin January 29th. This year's theme — Catholic Schools: Faith. Academics. Service — focuses on three priorities that make Catholic schools stand out from other educational institutions. Children are taught faith – not just the basics of Christianity, but how to have a relationship with God. Academics, which in Catholic schools are held to very high standards, help each child reach his or her potential And finally, Service, the giving of one’s time and effort to help others, is taught both as an expression of faith and good citizenship.
