Thousands of LDCSB students returned to their classrooms this week - filled with excitement and energy -  after a two week break for Christmas. At St. Bernadette Catholic School, the students took advantage of the winter weather.

Celebrating Those Who Have Made a Difference! 

This will be the sixth year of an initiative to profile London District Catholic School Board Graduates who live the Ontario Catholic Graduate Expectations.  Those selected must be secondary school graduates of the London District Catholic School Board or its predecessor Boards. They must demonstrate impact in professional and/or personal life in the following areas: spiritual, academic, aesthetic, social, or physical; demonstrate fulfillment of the Ontario Catholic Graduate Expectations; and demonstrate stewardship in Catholic Education. Nominators must complete a nomination form, signed by the nominee and submitted to John Boles at the Catholic Education Centre by February 28th, 2009. (Printable nominations forms are available HERE).

There is a limit of one nomination per nominator. A Selection Committee will review all nominations and make a final decision based on the criteria.  The graduate (s) will be profiled in Spotlight, on the Board Website and during Education Week. This is your opportunity to publicly honour someone you know who has made a difference in the world around them! A list of previous winners is available Here.
