Dear families of the Notre Dame Catholic School
Community:
I wish to welcome you on behalf of the Notre Dame Catholic
School community. Notre Dame is a vibrant and welcoming community.
We are blessed with a dedicated, hard working and enthusiastic
staff that enriches our students, not only through academics,
but also through extra-curricular activities.
Following the leadership of the London District Catholic School
Board, Notre Dame Catholic School’s theme this year
is "Good News for All" through the Ontario Catholic
School Graduate Expectations as we mark the tenth year of
their implementation. Catholic education is distinguished
by its role in forming the whole child through faith formation
and we are led and guided by the Catholic Graduate Expectations.
They are our guide for planning, instructional strategies,
evaluation and assessment. The Expectations build our life
roles, skills and attitudes that will be carried and developed
over our lifetime. As educators in the Catholic Faith, we
work together with our homes and parishes to form the human
person emerging within each of our students. Our faith formation
informs our search for knowledge, skills and understanding
as well as our values, attitudes and actions. We have an enormous
responsibility as educators, parents, parishes and students
to teach and follow the example of Jesus and the Gospels each
day.
May this year bring you many blessings as we journey together
to fulfill our individual callings in Christ's name.
Sincerely,
Kevin Kusch
