Equity & Inclusion

WE SEE GOD IN ALL PEOPLE 
We are committed to fostering an inclusive community where everyone feels a sense of value and belonging. Doing so will create a welcoming community where all voices have power and diversity is celebrated. Within our school and the larger parish community, as part of the principles of Catholic Social Teaching, we commit to confronting and challenging societal biases and racism. We must march along a path toward greater equity and justice with humility, authenticity, and compassion. 
 
As part of our commitment, we invite our staff, parents/guardians, and students to become active participants in our journey toward equity and inclusion.

In that spirit, we offer this examen. An examen is a structured prayer in which we are led to prayerfully reflect on our lives by focusing on being present to God and asking God to search our hearts and guide our steps.  Read more
