Welcome to the Office of Catholic Schools in the Diocese of Gaylord! In our 16 Catholic schools, we strive to help students develop a lifelong love of learning and a firm foundation in the faith. We are grateful that your family is considering a Catholic education, and we are here to help you explore this wonderful opportunity.
The top reasons for choosing a Catholic school often include the ongoing faith formation and access to the sacraments; the personalized learning experience and strong curriculum; and the warm, family-like atmosphere found in our schools. All of these are excellent considerations — our passion truly is investing in students academically, through athletics and extra-curricular programs, and most importantly, in their relationship with Jesus Christ.
We invite you to continue exploring what a Catholic education can offer for your child, and we look forward to walking alongside you in this journey.

Curriculum & Assessment
The curriculum in the Diocese of Gaylord upholds Catholic teaching and fosters academic excellence in our students, designed to educate the whole student: mind, body and spirit. For detailed information regarding the curriculum used in the diocese, click to explore curriculum.
Academic assessment is critical in gaining a balanced view of student growth. This includes each student's daily work, performance on a variety of classroom assessments, and the observations and insights of their teachers. These assessments guide both teaching and learning, while maintaining that important decisions about students and his/her education are never made on the basis of a single assessment.
