Archbishop Wilton Gregory and the Archdiocese of Atlanta welcome Catholic school superintendents, assistant superintendents and directors to renew the legacy of Catholic education
For Catholic school superintendents, assistant superintendents and directors time away from their busy offices will be time well spent as they take advantage of three days of professional development offered by the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA). Topics such as “Using Collaborative Technology to Make Inclusive, Cohesive Decisions,” “The Challenge to Re-Image Catholic Educational Leadership in the Age of Francis,” “What’s New in Federal Education Policy and Why Does It Matter?,” are just some of the sessions offered at the 2015 Catholic Leadership Summit in Atlanta, GA, from October 18 – 21.
An intensive and information-rich Superintendents and Assistant Superintendent Academy preceded the summit on October 17 and 18.
Catholic Dioceses and Archdioceses around the country are sending their top professional leaders to the Catholic Leadership Summit. The summit provides a valuable opportunity for renewing a commitment to Catholic Identity and the mission of Catholic education. It also is an occasion for the attendees to network with like-minded leaders in Catholic education.
“Our goal is to present a platform of relevant subject matter and collegial interaction, while inspiring the leaders of the millions of Catholic school students across the country,” said Brother Robert Bimonte, FSC, president of NCEA. “Catholic school leaders are the caretakers of the legacy of Catholic education. Folding together academic rigor and Catholic Identity can be a tall order in today’s fast-paced world. NCEA is helping to reaffirm the good work being done by our Catholic school leaders with professional gatherings such as this and continuing professional development, leadership services and resources whenever they need it.”
