Catholic Education Week 2017-2018

Renewing the Promise



This year’s Catholic Education Week theme is “Renewing the Promise.”
The theme for CEW 2018 draws upon previous documents on Ontario Catholic Education, namely, “This Moment of Promise” (1989), “Fulfilling the Promise” (1993) and “Our Catholic Schools” (2006-2007). These three documents, while several years apart from each other, all speak of the unique mission of Ontario Catholic Education, the importance of its shared leadership by all those involved in Catholic Education and the critical role of Catholic Education in contemporary society.
“For the promise is for you, for your children, and for all who are far away, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to him.” Acts 2:39 / Wednesday May 9,2018
