From safety and instructional planning to our Leadership Strategies for Workplace Mental Health session with ASEBP, each discussion focused on how small, faith-driven actions help our schools thrive.

Lakeland Catholic support staff came together for a professional learning session on Understanding the Change Process.
The session explored change through both individual and organizational lenses, emphasizing how faith, collaboration, and compassion guide growth within our schools.
Through reflection and shared learning, staff reaffirmed that positive change strengthens our ability to serve Lakeland Catholic's students — and one another — with grace and purpose as we prepare for their return.
What does it mean to serve with purpose?
Today, our acclaimed Lakeland Catholic Board of Trustees came together for Orientation Day: a time to grow in faith, strengthen unity, and renew their commitment to serve through Christ.
Together with Division leaders, trustees explored the sacred responsibility of Catholic governance and the vital role faith plays in every decision made for our students and schools.
This was more than an introduction; it was a reaffirmation of our mission to ensure that Christ remains the cornerstone of every decision, every classroom, and every student we serve.
