We are a Catholic Community of Caring: 

Rooted in our Catholic faith, the five core values of caring, respect, responsibility, trust and family are the foundation on which responsible decisions and behaviors are based.

We are fortunate as a Catholic community, to be able to teach, guide and model the values of the program from a Catholic lens.   The Catholic formation of these five core values is distinctive.  We model Jesus and the Church teachings, we view this not only as a program but as a lifestyle and Calling to follow the gospel values developed through grace, prayer and a Christian life. 

The 5 core values of Community of Caring are infused with our Catholic Faith:

We are Stewards of the Earth: 

As people of Faith, we are convinced that "the earth is the Lord's and all it holds….We believe our response to global climate change should be a sign of our respect for God's creation. (Global Climate Change: A Plea for Dialogue, Prudence and the Common Good, US Catholic Bishops, 2001).

Today, our Catholic community is addressing more consistently and faithfully how to protect God's creation and the environment that sustains the human family and all the earth. As Pope John Paul II said, "respect for life and for the dignity of the human person extends also to the rest of creation, which is called to join man in praising God." We show our respect for our Creator by our care for His creation.

Leveled Book List

 

How You Can Help Us Help Our Students to Improve Their Reading

bullet

We are looking for parent volunteers to help us during the school day with a reading program designed to help our struggling readers to read better and to gain confidence in their ability to read. Please contact Mme Bolhuis at the school to volunteer. We will provide you with training.

Please see our list of leveled books (Click "Leveled Book List" at left).

 

bullet

This list has been developed:

  1. For parents who have requested help in finding books at their child's reading level.

  2. For teachers to build a leveled library in their classrooms

  3. To help us organize book donations to our English Reading Program

 

If you have any of these books at home and you no longer need them, we would greatly appreciate it if you would donate them to the school. They will be added to the independent reading selection bins for our students. Thank you for your help as we try to build our English Reading program.

 

Multiple Intelligences Survey Link:

Please complete the above Multiple Intelligences survey along with your child. We would appreciate it if you would share those results with your child's teacher as it will help us to develop your child's learning program.

 

Donations are always appreciated:

Books for our school library - if you have any French or English books that are no longer being used by your children, we would appreciate their donation to our school library

Caring Cupboard: Non-perishable or freezable lunch items for those students who forget their lunch.

Mittens: Extra pairs of mittens for students who have lost mitts or whose mitts are soaked are kept in the office. Students may borrow them and bring them back if they need them to be dressed appropriately for the winter weather.

Thank you for your ongoing generosity. We are so blessed with your generous spirit.
