Catholic Education is being celebrated in schools across northwestern Ontario.
Education Director for the Northwest District Catholic School Board Mary-Catherine Kelly says this year's theme is "Rejoicing in Hope."
"What we're trying to do is celebrate what's good about catholic education," says Kelly, "and let our public know about the distinctiveness of a faith-based catholic education school system. Each day we're going to celebrated hope in hearts, in our homes, in our schools, in our communities and in our world."
A number of events are planned in area schools.
