Dominican Values Still at the Forefront of an ECS Education

On September 1, 2023, PreK-12 schools sponsored by the Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa, and two other Dominican congregations, transferred sponsorship to the newly formed Dominican Veritas Ministries. In a visionary move, Dominican sisters from several orders petitioned the pope to set up an organization that would act to ensure the Dominican charisma lived on in its PreK-12 schools. From this request, Dominican Veritas Ministries was created.

From the DVM website: "Dominican Veritas Ministries proudly sponsors 13 schools across 9 states, embodying a Dominican Catholic education rooted in excellence, joy, and holistic student growth. Spanning diverse educational contexts—from preschools to high schools, and co-ed to single-gender learning environments—each school carries forward the mission and vision of the Dominican Sisters, fostering the flourishing of every student."

We remain part of the Dominican community and still honor the Sinsinawa sisters in all that we do and say. We are grateful for their dedication and commitment to their sponsored schools. The Dominican Sisters of Sinsinawa have taught the values of seeking truth, practicing compassion, exercising justice, building community, and promoting partnership at Edgewood Campus School for more than 140 years. Through Dominican Veritas Ministries, these values will live on ensuring that an inclusive and caring environment remains for generations to come. Academic excellence is first among all things and is the rock on which ECS fulfills our service to the community. We are grateful to the sisters and excited for the future with DVM.
