As a faith community, the Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board (NPSCDSB) education system seeks to provide learning opportunities that recognizes the dignity of each person, encourages social justice, and challenges students and staff to become "fully alive". The NPSCDSB exists so that students, enlightened by their Catholic faith, become contributing, fulfilled responsible citizens of a global society at a justifiable use of resources.
The NPSCDSB has 11 elementary schools, 1 secondary school, and 1 adult education campus, serving approximately 3,200 students across North Bay, West Nipissing, Mattawa, Powassan and Callander, and offers rich learning environments that provide students with the skills they need to be confident, engaged and community-oriented during their school years and beyond.
