Description
The curriculum of the Catholic school needs to be driven by the Mission Statement of the school. Curriculum is one of the places where the mission statement should be incarnated and Catholic schools are called to do so by Church documents on education. Each school needs to confront the issue that if X is the mission, what follows for curriculum, teaching, school organization, and so on? Do unit plans, modes of instruction and forms of assessment reflect the Mission Statement? In this session, both theory and practice will be addressed so that participants might begin to do the necessary reform in one’s school so that the Mission is made flesh. This session will be interactive, so bring your mission statement, some unit plans and your experiences along with you.
