Love is not just an emotion it is also a decision. Love involves a deliberate choice to give and to serve others even though the service may go unnoticed and unappreciated.

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

We are pleased to invite you to an upcoming parent workshop supported by the Central Committee for Catholic School Councils for DPCDSB:

Raising Kids in a Digital World
April 9, 2026
Doors open at 5:30 PM | Presentation begins at 6:00 PM
Cardinal Leger Catholic Secondary School, 75 Mary Street, Brampton

If you’ve noticed your child struggling with focus, motivation, or constant screen time battles—you’re not alone. What many parents don’t realize is how deeply today’s digital world is shaping behaviour, attention, and wellbeing. Join digital parenting expert Lucy Colangelo for a practical, eye-opening session on what’s really happening—and what you can do about it.

We will be joined by Lucy Colangelo, founder of ShineOn Student Success, who works with schools across Ontario helping families navigate the growing challenges of technology use.

Many families are noticing real changes in their children — shorter attention spans, increased anxiety, difficulty staying motivated, and ongoing struggles around screen time. This session will help make sense of what’s happening and, more importantly, what you can do about it.

During the evening, you will learn:

• How digital platforms are shaping attention, motivation, and wellbeing
• Why screen habits can be so difficult for kids to manage on their own
• Practical strategies to reset technology use at home
• How parents and schools can work together to better support students

This is an important opportunity to gain insight, tools, and confidence as a parent in today’s digital world.

We encourage all parents and caregivers to attend.

The Transition Advisory Committee (TAC) will be hosting the spring Central Resource Fair for secondary school students with a developmental or intellectual disability and their caregivers. The fair will feature supports and services available for post-secondary pathway planning such as community programs, government supports, recreational opportunities and employment supports. This event will be held at Applewood Acres Secondary School (3675 Thomas Street
Mississauga) on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Registration is not required for this event.

The Church's tradition in many places dedicates the month of May to the Blessed Virgin Mary. During this time, Catholics try to keep the Mother of God more present in their hearts, with a love shown in affectionate devotion to our Lady. ​

It is with great excitement and joy that we invite you to our 15th Annual Mississauga West Shining Stars Event.

On Thursday, May 7, 2026, Mississauga West will proudly host this much‑loved annual celebration for our Diverse Learners. The event will take place at St. Aloysius Gonzaga Catholic Secondary School.

Students will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of Special Olympic events, supported by Mississauga West staff, elementary student volunteers, and St. Aloysius Gonzaga leadership students.

The day will begin with our Opening Ceremony and Liturgy at 10:15 a.m., followed by participation in the Special Olympic events. Students will regroup for lunch at 11:45 a.m., and the event will conclude with a parade and singing at 12:15 p.m.

This joyful event celebrates inclusion, achievement, and community, and we are delighted to continue this cherished tradition.
