St. Dorothy Catholic Elementary School is Awarded
The TCSB Employees Credit Union School Community Award

The Angel Foundation for Learning extends a sincere congratulations to St. Dorothy Catholic Elementary School for winning the TCSB Employees Credit Union School Community Award. The $500.00 award will be presented at to the school during Education Week.

The proposal, formulated by Christine Storey, teacher at St. Dorothy, outlines that the school is developing school spirit and building community by incorporating the virtue for each month as presented in the Follower of Christ program. Every student at the school received a wrist band listing the ten virtues and students are recognized daily for demonstrating the virtues in their actions. The program encourages school spirit, community building and allows the students to strive to be better Followers of Christ. The intermediate students have taken the program a step further by getting involved in the Me 2 We program.

The funds from the TCSB ECU School Community Award will be used to purchase books that will increase knowledge of various cultures and that are related to the virtues being promoted.

The TCSB ECU School Community Award is given to an elementary school that promotes school spirit in an effort to forge stronger relationships within the school community as well as to build a stronger school community overall. Through the TCSBECU School Community Award, the Credit Union wishes to encourage schools to emulate the qualities that they so highly value – Catholicity, trust, integrity, philanthropy, community, compassion and charity.
