Faith, Knowledge and Service form the heart of our Catholic schools. We are blessed to have schools in 19 counties across Northwest Ohio serving over 15,000 students. Parents who send their children into our safe and faith filled schools invest in an education not available in a public school environment. This formation of faith is the bedrock of a Catholic school and the outcome for a child of Go

Here is a reminder of the snow emergency policy in the Diocese of Toledo. The faithful should always use prudential judgement when traveling.

Whenever a county/city within the Diocese of Toledo is placed under a Level 3 Snow Emergency, during which all roadways are closed to non-emergency personnel, the Catholic Churches within that geographic region will cancel the scheduled Saturday Vigil, Sunday, or Holy Day Masses. Roman Catholics in that region, therefore, are dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass.

If Masses are cancelled, Catholics are encouraged to participate in Holy Mass via television, radio, or internet, making a spiritual Communion. When Mass is cancelled, all other diocesan, parish, or school events in that geographic region are also cancelled.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Department of Catholic Education!

Loving and Gracious God,
On this Thanksgiving Day, we pause to recognize Your abundant blessings.
We thank You for our Catholic schools—places of faith, learning, and community.
Bless our students with curiosity and joy,
our teachers with wisdom and strength,
our staff with patience and dedication,
and our pastors, principals, and families with hearts rooted in Your love.

Fill us with gratitude for the gift of Catholic education
and for the mission we share in forming disciples of Your Son.
As we gather around our tables,
may we remember those in need,
offer kindness freely,
and live each day with thankful hearts.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

This past week school leaders from across the Diocese of Toledo took time away in Findlay for professional development, prayer and fellowship at our annual School Leadership Conference! They spent Thursday with a presenter from Boston College’s Lynch Leadership Academy focused on “A Culture of Achievement”. Friday was a variety of peer presentations on topics related to Catholic School Leadership and a closing session that helped ensure our leaders recall the vocation and reason they serve in our Catholic schools. Thank you to Mr. Jon Cuttitta (Mansfield, St Peter), Mrs. Megan Sheid (Lima, St. Charles), and Dr. Eric O’Brien (Maumee, St. Joseph) for presenting!

It was great to have nearly 80 heads of school, principals, assistant principals, deans and lead teachers gathered together!

Also, congratulations to Mr. Manuel Gonzales, recipient of the annual Fr. John “Arch” Thomas Leadership AwGesu School + Toledo, Ohioatholic School Principal who has served for more than 10 years and is known for their exceptional leadership!

Today, the Department of Catholic Education hosted the 2025 Known, Loved, Served Conference! The KLS Conference is a diocesan Faith Formation Day for teachers in our Catholic schools. This year’s theme—“Holy Disciples in the Classroom”—echoes our diocesan mission to form holy disciples and foster holy vocations. We are grateful to Bishop Daniel E. Thomas for celebrating Mass and to our presenters Dr. Kevin Baxter of the Mary Ann Remick Leadership Program (ACE - Alliance for Catholic Education) and Dr. Marlon De La Torre (Diocese of Columbus) for their inspiring messages. Thank you to the over 500 educators who attended!
