Manage episode 462246824 series 3614644
Patty Lansink, our diocesan superintendent of schools, talks about the 15 different Catholic school systems in the diocese and how each has a unique character to serve students of all faiths, cultures and abilities. System-wide, enrollment has collectively risen 5% over last year. Lansink also shares how the MLTF program and ESAs help make Catholic education more affordable for parents. To celebrate the value that Catholic schools bring to our communities, Lansink and Bishop Walker Nickless will be traveling to four different diocesan school sites during Catholic Schools Week Jan. 27 through 31. Students will have the opportunity to interact with the bishop. The superintendent also shares different ways the faithful can support their local Catholic school.
