Educating the Minds and Hearts of the Young

 

What have we discovered?

We acknowledge the immense contribution over the past two hundred years that brothers and their colleagues have made to the liberating education of the young. There is joy and gratitude in the development of greater shared responsibility among partners in the school ministry.

What are our Heart Decisions?

To ensure that Christian Brother schools are communities of learning and of faith and justice, where students, parents, and staffs are educated to a practical awareness of social inequity.
To continue the process of identifying the distinctive values of Edmund Rice education.
To develop across the Congregation a network of those involved in the transmission and development of the Edmund Rice charism in the school network.
To address the issue of future ownership and responsibility for Christian Brother schools.
