Welcome to St. Teresa of Calcutta CES
Hello and welcome to the St. Teresa of Calcutta Catholic School website.
As we gather to start the 2025-2026 school year, I am inspired by the continual positive spirit felt in our hallways, in our classrooms and on our playground. The excitement of the first week of school is a sign to come of what will be a fantastic school year.
Together, we will continue to support our students and foster the love of learning through a strong parish, home and school partnership.
We are very fortunate to have Father Mark Gatto and Father Joonbin Lim of St. Catherine of Siena Parish as active partners and role models in our school. We will continue to support our students' spiritual growth between school and parish visits, masses, liturgies and sacramental celebrations.
As principal, I have been truly in awe of the active involvement of our parents/guardians within our school. We have a supportive Catholic School Council that is always planning the next fun event to keep our students engaged. We have parents and grandparents that volunteer their time in the school to support our programming, fundraising initiatives and events. We will continue to work together to ensure this healthy relationship continues to benefit our students throughout this school year.
Our staff will continue to centre ourselves in Jesus Christ as our model to inspire us each day to serve our students. We will continue to challenge our students to grow academically, socially and spiritually. We will continue to reflect on and develop our craft to ensure our students are receiving a fresh, meaningful and excellent, faith-based education that prepares them for 21st century living. Our co-curricular opportunities for students in athletics, the arts, STEM and religious life will only enhance the learning that students will receive in the classroom.
In closing, I am excited for what will be a rewarding and fun school year. I thank our students, staff and parents/guardians for their partnership as we embark on this school year, together! Let us draw upon the inspirational words of Pope Leo in all that we do here at St. Teresa of Calcutta this school year; "We are called to bear witness to our joyful faith in Jesus the saviour."
Sincerely,
Jeff Zwolak- Principal
