The 2008 theme is "Catholic Schools Light the Way." The theme focuses on the leadership that Catholic Schools provide to our nation, producing graduates who light the way to a brighter future for all humankind. The theme also hightlights the spiritual foundation of Catholic schools, for we are on "The Way," a biblical term used to describe those who follow Jesus as disciples. The slogan, "Catholic Schools Light the Way," reminds us that we are called to "light the way" to the kingdom for others even as we walk "the way" of discipleship and grow in faith ourselves.
The logo and slogan below were first used in the 2006-07 school year. The theme, "Catholic Schools: The Good News in Education," will continue to be used in the coming years as an "evergreen" message. It will appear on selected marketing materials, including t-shirts, posters and other items.
The 2008 Marketing Kit includes tested, real-world marketing strategies plus the artwork you need for ads, billboards and more. The kit is revised and updated each year and includes the Marketing Handbook, Liturgy Guide, CSW button, CSW poster and an artwork disk.

The Marketing Handbook gives a day-by-day guide to planning Catholic Schools Week, with examples and stories from Catholic schools across the nation. It includes a ten-page section on how to market your school year-round to increase enrollment and community support. Quotes to “Light the Way,” quick facts about Catholic schools in the U.S., and tips to recruit volunteers make this a must-have resource.
-
The Liturgy Guide provides planning ideas for Sunday Mass and weekday prayer services during Catholic Schools Week. It includes commentary on the readings, homilies linking readings and the CSW theme, song suggestions and general intercessions. A feature new this year is an “at-a-glance” liturgy preparation guide.
Catholic Schools Week and the National Marketing Campaign For Catholic Schools are joint projects between the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA) and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). You can find a listing of past themes for Catholic Schools week here.
Catholic Schools Week always begins the last Sunday in January.
