The Office
of the Superintendent of Schools is entrusted with the responsibility
of providing leadership, unity, and service to all elementary
and secondary schools of the Archdiocese, whether parochial,
private, Religious Community-owned, or regional. The Catholic
Bishops emphasize this responsibility in their document, "To
Teach As Jesus Did": Catholic education is an expression
of the mission entrusted by Jesus to the Church He founded.
Through education, the Church seeks to prepare its members
to proclaim the Good News and to translate this proclamation
into action. Of the educational programs available to the
Catholic community, Catholic schools afford the fullest and
best opportunity to realize the threefold purpose of Christian
education--message, community, and service--among children
and young people.
