Looking Back on the 2021-22 School Year

Scott Johnson, Director of Education at the St Clair Catholic District School Board.

The head of the St Clair Catholic District School Board is sharing his thoughts on the past year.

Scott Johnson presented his 2021-22 report to the board of trustees this week, calling it a testament to the innovation, resilience and compassion in which school communities faced the trials of the pandemic.

“I know that, as you read through the pages of this report, you agree that we have much to celebrate at St. Clair Catholic,” says Mr. Johnson. “We have begun the 2022-2023 school year with a renewed sense of optimism and a hopeful spirit that will guide us toward better days.”

“These were challenging times; but with our focus on mental health and well-being for all, our students had the assurance they were safe and cared for,” says John Van Heck, Chair of the Board.  “With our faith to guide us, there was always hope for a brighter tomorrow.”

The 72-page document outlines the board’s continued response to the pandemic, various partnerships that have helped keep students and families engaged, and various milestones over the last year including the opening of the New Monsignor Uyen Catholic School in Chatham.

The Director’s Annual Report 2022 is now posted to the Board website and has been forwarded to the Minister of Education.
