Board Office BuildingCatholic schools in the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board inspire and nurture strong communities of faith, engaged  communities of learning and compassionate communities of service.

We educate our students to grow in grace and knowledge and to lead lives of faith, hope and love.

We are committed to academic excellence and the relentless pursuit of success for each student and staff member, fostered within a faith filled Catholic learning environment.

The purchasing department is primarily involved and focused upon the strategic acquisition of goods and services.

The department ensures fiscally responsible, transparent and accountable decision making practices and resource allocation of all school, board and provincial resources to achieve goals that equitably meet current needs in our school and board communities.
