Linda Ward, a deeply faith-filled Catholic and lifelong champion of Catholic education, has been named the recipient of the 2026 Trustee Award of Merit by the Ontario Catholic School Trustees’ Association (OCSTA).

Teams from six St. Clair Catholic schools brought outstanding creativity, compassion, and entrepreneurial spirit to Lambton College on Thursday, April 30, as they competed in this year’s Enactus One Future competition. Their efforts stood out, with St. Clair Catholic projects earning all three top spots.

This week, from May 3 to 9, we come together not only as a Catholic school system but a Catholic community to honour three important observances that speak to who we are—people rooted in faith, dignity, compassion, and care for one another.
