Catholic schools help build a foundation for lifelong faith

Students Praying

Choosing the best school for your family is an important decision. It’s where your children acquire knowledge, develop habits, and build relationships that will impact them for years to come.

Catholic schools in the Diocese of Grand Rapids partner with parents, the primary educators of their children, to provide an education where Christ illuminates learning and life. The result is a learning experience with outcomes that are second to none.

For instance, research shows that Catholic education helps students grow in faith and grace. The Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate has found that millennials who attended Catholic schools are 7x-8x more likely to attend Sunday Mass. (Source)

Choosing Catholic education is an impactful way to nurture your children’s lifelong faith.

Catholic schools also help students achieve more in school and life, develop creativity and character, and feel welcomed and cherished for their unique gifts. We’ll showcase these benefits in upcoming articles.
