And the Winner Is…

Jun 27, 2019

Every year we get to award Catholic School teachers for their dedication to Catholic Education, thanks to a generous donor who started an endowment in 1998. The Catholic Award for Teachers endowment generously distributes $1,000 to each teacher and $100 to their school’s endowment. The teachers are nominated by their peers and students and the final decision is made by a committee selected by the endowment holder.

“Let us thank all those who teach in Catholic schools. Educating is an act of love; it is like giving life.”  -Pope Francis
