Mission Statement
Loyola Catholic Secondary School is committed to fostering personal academic excellence in a socially supportive environment. We strive to instil in our students the love of God and neighbour and the desire to acquire skills, knowledge, attitudes and values that will allow them to become independent, responsible, productive and contributing members of a rapidly changing multicultural society. We, the staff, promote a commitment to life-long learning, family and social, cultural and gender equity.
We, at Loyola, make it our mission to:
- Form a compassionate and welcoming community
- Be attentive to God's will for us to answer the call to service
- Carry the burdens of formation and ministry with joy and hope
- Plant and maintain the seeds of faith and responsible Catholic living
