Welcome to the Lakeland Catholic School District website. We trust you will find this site balanced, current, and most importantly, useful in providing valuable information. Lakeland Catholic is a full-service school district providing Catholic education to approximately 2550 students in 8 schools located in the City of Cold Lake, Bonnyville, Waskatenau and Lac La Biche.
Lakeland Catholic offers a broad curriculum that develops essential skills and competencies through advanced technologies, problem solving, critical thinking, cultural enrichment, and the spiritual growth of all students. In essence, we provide education with a purpose. Parents, teachers, trustees, administrators, and the entire Lakeland Catholic community are involved in the vital mission of providing an education of the highest caliber that is permeated by the Catholic faith.
We offer an extensive professional development program for all our staff that ensures that they make the best use of technology, time, and community resources to maximize student outcomes. We believe that an effective professional development program, combined with the continuous evaluation of staff and program effectiveness is critical to student learning and development.
There are numerous links on this site, which will outline our recent work as well as our models of education, operation, and governance. These areas will be updated regularly with our plans and decisions during the 2017-2018 school year.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the administration of Lakeland Catholic, I wish everyone an excellent and productive school year.
Joe Arruda
Superintendent/CEO
