In a school community formed by Catholic beliefs and traditions, our Mission is to educate students to their full potential by providing:
- leadership in the shared responsibility for education that exists among schools, students, families, parishes and the community;
- a safe and welcoming learning environment that is an example of Christian community;
- role models of Gospel values and Catholic doctrines, teachings and beliefs;
- guidance in what students need to learn;
- instruction in the learning process itself;
- religious, academic and technological instruction;
- integration of Catholic, Christian beliefs into the total learning experience; and
- feedback on students' proficiency and performance.
We envision students who:
- are formed in the Catholic faith;
- apply Christian values to life's opportunities, challenges and choices;
- pursue academic excellence;
- demonstrate relevant knowledge and ability;
- display self-esteem and self-respect;
- strive to be the best they can be;
- demonstrate skills for developing and maintaining personal and family wellness; and
- demonstrate global perspective and community responsibility
To provide students with the qualities they will require, our Vision of TCDSB is a school system that:

- is Christ-centered;
- is student focused;
- demonstrates a clear sense of purpose;
- is visibly and demonstrably Catholic;
- reflects empowering leadership;
- applies collaborative decision making;
- is innovative; and
- provides role models among all stakeholders for all these qualities
