Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the NCEA Secondary Schools Department pages. I trust that the information and resources you find here will support you in your on-going efforts to provide and assure excellence in all aspects of Catholic education.
The NCEA Secondary Schools Department is called to provide leadership, advocacy, and service to Catholic secondary schools as communities with a Catholic identity rooted in faith, committed to justice, living out the Gospel values, and promoting excellence in all a programs.
To carry out this mission, and to better serve you, our member schools, we visit with more than 300 school leaders across the country in a series of meetings addressing the governance and advancement of Catholic secondary schools. Through several partnerships with various organizations and universities, the department has been able to extend its voice on behalf of its members by offering a range of professional development opportunities and resources for administrators and faculty throughout the year. We also provide personalized service in the areas of development, institutional advancement, and leadership search services.
Finally, we represent you and the interests of Catholic secondary education with other national and international associations and in a number of public policy forums, including efforts in support of school choice and the United States Department of Education school recognition program.
Welcome to our pages! We hope you will take advantage of the services and information contained here as part of our service to you, a valued NCEA member.
Sr. Mary Frances Taymans, SND, EdD
Executive Director
