Strategic Plan

The Christ the Redeemer Catholic Schools Board of Trustees, through its policy governance model and its passion for kids and learning, has established strategic planning as an ongoing systematic cycle that involves all those associated with Christ the Redeemer Catholic Schools. 

The strategic plan identifies the vision, mission, beliefs, and articulates the strategic directions of the district. It identifies those priorities that must be embraced by all in order to progress toward the vision! The strategic directions provide the focus for the Board of Trustees, the Superintendent and the leadership team, for schools, for teachers, staff and volunteers. 

The plan forms the basis for performance planning and establishes outcomes and performance measures against which progress can be accessed and reported.  Strategic planning is a “best business practice” resulting in productivity and satisfaction.  

Vision: 
The Truth of Christ, love of God, and abundant Knowledge of God’s Creation will be experienced by and manifest in the students, staff, parents, and supporters of our Catholic School Community.

Mission:
Christ The Redeemer Catholic Schools in partnership with the family and the Parish, will deliver an authentic Catholic learning experience by creating a lasting foundation of faith and knowledge for everyone in our community in a supportive, caring environment.

Beliefs:
To fulfill the vision and mission Christ the Redeemer School Division and all associated therein will at all times be guided by the following beliefs: 

Faith:
We embrace the Magisterium of the Church and the corresponding need for our Catholic faith to permeate all aspects of education.  Our schools, acting as faith communities, will engage in prayer, worship, and service.  Jesus is the source of our morals and values, through which our staff and students give witness to the faith.  As stated in Canon Law, parents are the primary educators of their children.

Learning: 
As educators in our Catholic schools, we have high expectations and great confidence that all students can experience success.  We expect and nurture excellence in our students, educators, and leaders.

Safe and Caring: 
We believe that the infinite value of each person in God’s eyes must be reflected in all that we do.  Students, parents, staff, and supporters are valued as members in our Catholic school community.

Stewardship of Resources: 
We are called to be faithful stewards of God’s creation and ensure that resources are wisely allocated to support our vision and mission.  This requires consideration of the collective needs of all school communities across Christ The Redeemer Catholic Schools.

STRATEGIC DIRECTION

The Board performs an annual self-evaluation, which leads to the implementation of a strategic plan. For the 2024-2025 school year, the strategic plan for the Board is centered upon three main components.

  1. Engagement – The Board will utilize ward meetings to create dialogue through a combination of reporting and structured feedback. Ward meeting participation will include increased parent, staff, and student voice alongside trustees, principals, superintendents, and priests.
  2. Advocacy – The Board will continue to support advocacy efforts through local community connections, while also leveraging voice in membership organizations that seek to enrich K-12 education.
  3. Roles and Responsibilities – The Board and Superintendent will engage in continuous improvement through collaborative efforts that will uphold strong governance for Christ the Redeemer.
