The Sudbury Catholic District School Board has carried on
the proud tradition of quality faith based education for Sudbury
youth since 1969, with further roots back to the earliest
days of schooling in our city over 100 years ago. We currently
operate 4 Secondary Schools, 1 Adult Education Centre and
20 Elementary Schools , including an all-girls academy available
after Grade 6 that is unique in the region. Each of our schools
enjoys a vibrant relationship with one or more of 25 Catholic
parishes in the Sudbury area, truly making our schools "Schools
to Believe In".
Catholic education is a process through which the community
of the school, the home and the Church develops within its
students a way of living which embodies the life of Jesus
Christ. Catholic schools are mandated by this community to
carry out the following mission:
TO PROVIDE
a quality education which integrates faith with culture so
that every aspect of the curriculum is taught in light of
the Gospel and the Gospel is expressed in terms of the life
witness of all those associated with Catholic Education.
TO CREATE
a faith community which recognizes the interdependence of
the members of the Catholic educational community - students,
parents, priests, teachers, trustees and administrators -
in the transmission of the beliefs and values of the community.
TO REINFORCE
and uphold the rights of parents, their beliefs and values,
with regard to the education of their children. Co-operation
of the home, the school and the Church is essential in imparting
Christian attitudes.
TO DEVELOP
the spiritual, moral, intellectual and physical talents of
each student in an atmosphere of faith; to educate a student
for life, not merely to impart information and skills. Individual
talents, skills and abilities are cultivated in such a manner
as to instill a sense of personal responsibility to the Creator
and to society.
