The cohort enjoyed a deep dive into the IPP as integral to teaching and learning in our member schools, celebrating the meaningful work of this year-long pilot program.

Congratulations to several students from across our Network who received their Easter Sacraments of Initiation earlier this month. These three Sacraments (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist) lay the foundation for a full and active life in the Catholic Church.
