"As never before, students today live in a world where communication is of paramount importance. The demands of the workplace and of society require that students of language arts need more than basic literacy skills. They need to be comfortable and confident in their ability to communicate both verbally and in writing, through traditional channels and through technology. They need to be able to hear the needs and ideas of others and to respond to them intelligently and with compassion.
The schools of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati strive to provide a language arts program that develops such abilities."
