Called to Serve

Ontario's Catholic Trustees

This academic year, one of our faith goals is to share our Call to Serve as trustees in Catholic education. Trustees have such a distinct and critical role in the education sector, that it is important to celebrate and proclaim our vocation and why we chose to answer the call.

Video is an ideal medium for sharing the stories we have to tell about what it means to answer the calling to serve as a Catholic school trustee.

On this page you will see videos from trustees at Catholic school boards across the province explaining the inspiration for their calling and the distinctive role they are fulfilling in service to students, their community and the Church.

Our Mission: Inspired by the Gospel, the Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association provides the provincial voice, leadership and service for elected Catholic school trustees to promote and protect publicly funded Catholic education in Ontario.
