As educators at St. Vincent de Paul School, we have a moral and legal responsibility for the well-being of minors as they pursue their education and participate in activities within our school community. We have a fundamental obligation and deep commitment to provide a safe and nurturing environment for our students and their families.

​

In order to achieve this, the Diocese of Columbus has a Protecting God's Children Program that implements training, screening, background checks and other procedures that are designed to reduce the risk of sexual abuse of children and vulnerable adults.
