New Teacher Formation
All administrators and teachers must complete Basic Certification. Completing “Teaching as Ministry,” “Scripture,” and “Prayer and Sacraments” will meet part of these requirements.
Since this is a professional meeting, we ask that all attendees dress appropriately. No jeans, sweats or t-shirts are to be worn. Each of these sessions are required as part of your Basic Certification. Attendees must be present for the entire session to receive credit.
Teaching as Ministry
(Session 1)
Participants must bring their Bible and Blue or Green Catechism!
Session is from 8:30 AM – 3:30 PM | Check-in and continental breakfast begins at 8:00 AM, lunch will be provided.
The job of each administrator and teacher in a Catholic School is to reinforce what the Church proclaims throughout the world and to work with parents in preparing their children to be faithful citizens who serve others. This ministry requires you to constantly strengthen your own faith in Jesus Christ and the one Church He founded.
