Policies and Procedures

Policies and Administrative Procedures are important resources which govern the operation of our Catholic school system. Our Trustees are responsible for developing and approving policies and administrative procedures for the Board. Policies and Administrative Procedures help everyone in the school community understand expectations and rights. They provide belief statements and operating guidelines for parents and staff regarding the administration of program, property, student, staff and Board matters.
