Partners in Formation –
-
The Headmaster Conversations are Zoom meetings, usually the 2nd Thursday of each month at 4:45pm, in which I’m inviting families to share feedback about these three priorities. The aim is to invite conversation and listen to how these three priorities are showing up for you.
-
The “Casual Conversations” are a new touchpoint in which I, and possibly other members of the leadership team, are available to you at the beginning or end of the school day, to talk about whatever might be on your mind. The aim here is casual conversation that supports our common life together.
-
Partners in Formation will aim this year at listening to families share about their experiences being Catholic families in the midst of modern culture. Since the Academy is dedicated to assisting families in forming Catholics and cultivating culture, I am hoping that these might be wide-ranging conversations about the needs, opportunities, and challenges of trying to live out our Catholic faith authentically in an increasingly hostile modern culture. These are only twice each semester.
