The Principal's Message
As I enter my fourth year as Principal at St. Michael Catholic Elementary School, I would like to extend warm wishes to our St. Michael Catholic Elementary School Community with the hope and intent that we continue to have another wonderful year together as a Catholic community rooted in the teachings of the Gospel.
This year, Ontario Catholic schools will celebrate Catholic Education as Pilgrims of Hope. Hope is foundational to our faith. We find hope in God’s grace and love. The theme for Catholic Education Week 2025 being held in May is inspired by the upcoming Jubilee Year. The quote for Catholic Education Week 2025 is: “We must fan the flame of hope that has been given to us.” (Letter on the Jubilee Year of Hope, February 11, 2022). We look forward to working in partnership with you as parents and our parish to foster the Catholic Education Week Theme.
As a Catholic school, we will continue to inspire engaged student learning, provide opportunities for students to succeed, while capitalizing on strengths and identifying areas that require further growth and development.
Together, we will work to communicate with parents and guardians, as well as community partners and parish to help ensure the academic, social emotional, and physical growth of the students in our care. It truly takes a partnership between home, community, school, and parish to promote a growth mindset in students and to ensure that we develop to our full potential.
We are grateful to work alongside a Catholic School Council who is committed to the well-being of students in our Catholic community. I look forward to the continued work that we will partake in together to benefit our student body and Catholic community.
We are grateful to our Parish, Sts. Peter and Paul, and the pastoral team who continue to inspire us through Catholic and Gospel values and teachings through scripture. We will look forward for the continued work we will do together to promote servant leadership.
Together, we work to accept the individual unique qualities that we all bring to our school community and to celebrate our diversity. We are all created in the image and likeness of God and we promote the philosophy that “each belongs.”
My wish is that each of our families continues to be blessed with health and happiness.
Mrs. A. Boyle
