No child should be denied his or her right to an education in faith,
which in turn nurtures the soul of a nation."

Efforts
Underway to Increase Ranks

By James Herzog,
FCC Associate for Accreditation
|

With this in
mind, our FCC Accreditation Committee has been
setting up training sessions for new team
members throughout the Program. In the
Fall, training sessions were held for the five
following (Arch)Dioceses:
-
Dioceses of
Savannah and St. Augustine, with Pat
Bronsard, Associate Superintendent, Diocese
of St. Augustine, as Trainer.
-
Diocese of
Orlando, with Jim Cooney, Associate
Superintendent, as Trainer.
-
Diocese of
Palm Beach and Archdiocese of Miami, with
Sr. Joan Dawson, FCCAC Chair and
Superintendent for the Palm Beach Diocese,
as Trainer.
The sessions
thus far have added about 50 new team members to
our rosters. Training sessions are pending
for the remaining dioceses in our program, for
the current semester. These include
Pensacola-Tallahassee,
St. Petersburg and
Venice. |
