June 4th: Enflame Our School Leaders - What is the role of virtue in education?

This event is open to Presidents, Principals, Vice Principals, and Preschool / Early Childhood Center Directors.

We have probably encountered the language of virtue in various places as catholic educators but what precisely do we mean when we say that ‘Catholic education seeks to develop virtue in the life of our students’?  Virtue is more than a mere catholic discipline policy; this retreat will build upon the virtue in education programs in many of our schools and give a sample of what we will be discussing this year in our BSI sessions.

 

August 1st: Lumen Retreat
