The St. Veronica Education Commission is focused on providing a model school that balances “Catholic and Academic” excellence. A Catholic based education that is in accordance with The Archdiocese of Cincinnati Board of Education and the St. Veronica Parish. We educate our children within a loving and nurturing environment which maximizes their development as children of God. Our youth consider St. Veronica their second home, a place for prayer, growth, learning and play.

St. Veronica Parish provides for a parish school to be administered on a daily basis by the St.Veronica School Principal. The parish also provides for the St. Veronica School Education Commission to establish procedure and policy for the St. Veronica School that results in accomplishment of the parish “strategy for growth”. The commission is not responsible for creating the educational teaching plans for the school; this is the function of the principal and teachers of St. Veronica School. The commission; however, may provide advice to the principal regarding course material.

The primary objective of the Education Commission is to establish policies and procedures which support the vision and mission of St. Veronica Parish. The Education Commission will offer non-binding recommendations after ample discussion, and appropriate and reasonable research of pertinent topics. The Education Commission is advisory and consultative to the Pastor, Principal, and Coordinator of Children’s Faith Formation with respect to the formulation of parish organizations, school, and REP procedures.
