Question #1 for Parent/Guardian: How has CEA helped make Catholic education attainable and affordable for your family?
CEA has helped our family afford Catholic Education. Having 4 kids in Catholic Schools is not easily attainable without discipline, sacrifice and CEA. Your contributions to CEA has allowed for us to be able to receive scholarships making our dream of sending our children to a safe, quality Catholic school our reality. Thank you for making this possible for us.
Question #2 for Student: What does a Catholic education mean to you and your family?
Catholic Education means that my family knows I’m safe and cared for at school. I am receiving a wonderful education too. It’s a better education than what I have experienced in any other schools previously.
Parent: A Catholic Education is a place where our children are happy, safe and encouraged to live as a Catholic. It is a place where teachers are there to educate our students for them to thrive and be successful. Teachers that care and desire to share in the joy of our faith. Catholic education MEANS that our children will learn all subjects in school in the light of our Catholic faith. It is allowing them to learn true history and science. It’s a place where they can pray, confess, and attend Adoration without being made fun of or looked at differently by other children. It’s a superior education than what we have seen at other schools in the state. It is a place where we can all come to the Lord, gather in community and are determined to help our children succeed to be a light in our world.
Question #3 for Student: Why is this opportunity important to you?
This opportunity is important to me because my parents can send me to a school that I can be Catholic, learn my faith that I adore, and share in a community that I love.
Question #4 for the whole Family: How would you thank those that have helped make your education possible through their state tax dollars and encourage them to continue to support Catholic Education Arizona?
We want to thank all those that have made this quality education for our children possible. If we could we would send each of them a card and a Crumbl cookie just to show how grateful we are.
