Dear Catholic School Families and Friends,
What an honor it is for me to highlight the many achievements of the Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Kalamazoo. Each of our schools is committed to giving our students the very best education possible and our role is to offer support and resources to our amazing educators, staff and school families. I invite you to spend some time browsing this site to see how our students are uplifted by faith, knowledge and service.
I value my vantage point to be able to witness the beautiful ways our students are growing in their faith, aided by our robust theology curriculum for elementary and high school students and our adoption of the 'Catechesis of the Good Shepherd' program for our early learners in preschool through first grade.
As a life-long educator, it thrills me to see the many ways we challenge our students to reach their full academic potential. We're proud of the evidence of their hard work and their unmatched test scores. We are also committed to serving a diverse population and have several schools who have attended the Latino Enrollment Institute at the University of Notre Dame. We walk alongside our educators who are entrusted with the care of our students and offer more that 100 hours of professional development as well as skills and certification workshops.
And because we value formation of the whole child, we're continuously amazed by their selfless witness of service to their communities and each other.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our schools.
Sincerely,
Margaret Erich
Superintendent of Schools
Diocese of Kalamazoo
