While this conference is primarily designed for Trustees, administrators, and teachers of private Catholic and independent schools that teach the Catholic faith, anyone interested in the advancement of faithful Catholic education, which champions orthodoxy and faithfulness to the Church and the Magisterium is welcome to attend. The theme of this year's conference is: Schools in Service to the Church and to One Another. Catholics seeking to start a new school, as well as established schools, will find this conference very informative and rewarding.This event is being sponsored by NAPCIS, and hosted by Ave Maria University. Come join us to pray and to learn; to share resources and network with some of the over 200 known private Catholic and independent schools. (There may be many more schools we don't know of yet; perhaps, you are one of those.) Get re-charged and re-energized in your dedication and commitment to salvation of souls and academic excellence! More information on speakers and topics will follow soon! With conference program and any other questions: Contact Eileen Cubanski 916-451-4963; ecubanski@napcis.org |
