St. Clair Catholic District School Board

The St. Clair Catholic District School Board was created January 1, 1998 as the result of amalgamation of the former Kent and Lambton County Roman Catholic Separate School Boards. In the past, we were separated by geography, yet united by our common bonds as Catholic educators. In 1998 we came together, united by our traditions, philosophies, and a renewed dedication to a strong and vibrant Catholic education. Indeed, this is the reason for Catholic schools. In a 1979 message to the National Catholic Educational Association of the United States, Pope John Paul II speaks of "…the lofty role of Catholic educators…" It is a high standard that each of us in the St. Clair Catholic District School Board strives to achieve every day.
