Community is at the heart of all Catholic education, not simply as a concept to be taught, but as a reality to be lived… Your students will learn to understand and appreciate the value of community as they experience love, trust, and loyalty in your school and educational programs, and as they learn to trust all persons as brothers and sisters created by God and redeemed by Christ.

—Pope John Paul II
