SPICE: SPECIAL PEOPLE IN CATHOLIC EDUCATION

JENNI DUFFY | ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL | 614-451-1626  jbucher@cdeducation.org

Special People in Catholic Education, or SPICE, is a special funding program developed to address the variety of student learning needs within our parish learning community. This includes the needs of our typical, developmental, and accelerated learners in our parish and school. St. Andrew SPICE recognizes that each parish child is a unique individual with different learning needs and supports serving the educational needs of these children in several different ways:

• SPICE supports teachers, catechists, and staff at St. Andrew parish and school in the philosophy that every child is special and inherent in human dignity.
• SPICE raises funds to support the educational process and parish life in whatever area our pastor, principal, and director of religious education deem necessary.
• SPICE encourages all students with special needs to live out their Catholic faith by affirming the dignity of being created in God's image and likeness and redeemed by Christ's saving power.
