Wishing You a Blessed Summer and Looking Ahead to Next Year
End of School Year Message from the Chief Superintendent
June 22, 2026
Dear ECSD Families,
The 2025-2026 school year is in its final days, and I want to express how grateful we are to have been able to serve you in the great endeavour of Catholic education. Our mission is to provide a Catholic education that inspires students to learn and that prepares them to live fully and to serve God in one another.
Each year, we present a social justice report to the Board of Trustees that tells the stories of how faith is put into action in the service of others across every school. You can read the report at ecsd.net/social-justice and watch a short video highlighting some of these amazing works of service.
May you have a glorious summer connecting with family, with friends, and with our loving God.
Preparing for the 2026-2027 School Year
