Across Lakeland Catholic Schools today, staff are taking part in Pathways to Excellence professional learning — a dedicated day focused on enhancing student learning.
These days begin with faith formation, grounding our work in the belief that Christ is our Model and children are our focus. Educators then come together to focus on literacy and numeracy, strengthen classroom practice, and share approaches that support student success across grades and schools.
Pathways to Excellence days are intentional and purposeful. They provide time for collaboration, reflection, and alignment so learning remains consistent, meaningful, and responsive to student needs.
This work matters. It supports teachers, strengthens classrooms, and directly benefits students — academically, socially, and spiritually.

Across the Division, students engaged in meaningful learning that built literacy and numeracy skills, encouraged problem‑solving, and strengthened confidence. From Learning Strategies at Assumption, to one‑to‑one literacy instruction at Holy Cross, to Grade 5/6 goal setting in Wellness at Holy Family, to numeracy work and shared reading at École Notre Dame Elementary, classrooms remained focused on learning that supports the whole child — academically, socially, and spiritually.
Students who were unable to attend were provided with learning activities to support continued learning from home.
Thank you to our families, staff, and students for their dedication to learning today. The day reinforced the importance of consistency and connection for students.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back on Monday!
