Love the morals and beliefs that Catholic Education/School grows in my children. The environment fosters love, support, kindness, honesty and most importantly, looking out for one another. "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

I wanted to be a child of God. I want to be in his family. Charlotte asked mom if she could be baptized and Mme Ethier got them in touch in touch with M Lavallee. It was an incredibly moving ceremony and Charlotte was super interested in all that was going on.

Why did I/We chose Catholic Education? Younger students what is your favourite thing about your school?
I grew up attending Catholic schools where the staff and students have always been kind, caring, and compassionate. I want my girls to be a part of that same environment. I feel comforted to know they will always be cared for and safe at school, around not only their teachers but peers as well. It is important for them to learn about God, the importance of prayer, and to always treat others with kindness and respect.

I feel that with my girls attending Catholic school they will learn to always be kind, loving, respectful, and compassionate towards others and themselves. It means they choose to make Christ-like decisions every day. Values and morals have always been very important to our family and will continue to be so.

I have had the privilege of being a teacher in Catholic Education for over 31 years. As a teacher I have been blessed to freely share my  faith with my students. Building relationships with my students has allowed me to assist in developing them into individuals that have an understanding of the importance of service and spiritual growth. Both qualities helps build their character and encourages success in all of their future endeavours.
