Superintendent’s Message
“Catholic schools do not have a mission;
the mission has schools.”
-Fr. Ron Nuzzi
Welcome back to another outstanding year of Catholic education in the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux! It is wonderful to see all of our schools back in action in our ministry! Our school staffs have worked diligently to prepare-both academically and spiritually- to welcome our students to their school families.
Throughout the summer, many of our administrator-ministers, teacher-ministers, staff members, and priests have participated in professional development activities, spiritual retreats, service projects, and other opportunities to grow and serve others. We are truly blessed with such dedicated servants in our ministry of Catholic education. However, alone, we could not serve the mission effectively. We are grateful for the devotion of our dedicated parents and extended family members who make great sacrifices to afford our children a Catholic education.
Thank you for continuing to make Catholic education in the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux a priority and for working collaboratively with our school families for the children we serve. My prayers are extended to all for a safe and successful school year as we work together to form Missionary Disciples of Christ.
