CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments

Our academic programs and service to the broader community focus on education: preparing students to be teachers and leaders in schools and communities, and providing ongoing formation opportunities for teachers, leaders, and catechists already engaged in these important works. We see our work of education as encompassing the human, spiritual, intellectual, and professional formation of the whole person. This total formation in the context of a community is united in Christ and the Church, and includes mutual seeking of truth and growth in charity. We strive together for the integration of faith, culture, and life that is the hallmark of Catholic education.
