The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines virtue as: an habitual and firm disposition to do good. It allows the person not only to perform good acts, but to give the best of himself. Different virtues and their meanings have been explained to the students. These virtues include: Fortitude, Justice, Prudence, Integrity, Friendship, Compassion, Truthfulness, Generosity, Unity and Loyalty.
To help the students become more engaged in this entire process, Virtue Awards have been created to present to students that are ‘Living Virtue’. Staff members are on the lookout for students practicing virtues. These students are presented with a certificate and their name is put in for an end-of-the-month drawing to receive a morning donut treat. September’s Virtue Award Winners are listed below. Congratulations!
