In keeping with the values of our Catholic faith and traditions, development can be thought of as a ministry that invites people into the process of planning for the success of a school. Development practices all center around relationships that sustain us as individuals and help our schools to grow and be vibrant and successful. Development helps create a culture of philanthropy or stewardship within our school. Good stewards help to celebrate and promote the school mission, vision and values, laying a strong foundation for success.
