In keeping with the Mission, Vision and Values, of the Niagara Catholic District School Board, the Board recognizes that volunteers make a positive, meaningful and significant contribution to Niagara Catholic schools and the Board.

Volunteers in Niagara Catholic schools support a strong Catholic identity and community that nurtures the distinctiveness of Catholic education and advances student achievement and well-being.

Volunteers undertake, without remuneration, activities that support Catholic school communities, committees and organizations. Therefore, to recognize volunteers in Niagara Catholic schools, elementary and secondary administrators will host a Volunteer Recognition Celebration, during Catholic Education Week or National Volunteer Appreciation Week to recognize volunteers in their school communities, in consultation with their Catholic School Councils.
