The Catholic Schools Office (CSO) is the Archdiocesan Office of the Superintendent of Catholic Schools in the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. The CSO Staff carries out the mission of providing resources and assistance to our network of Catholic schools and serves as a guiding center for accreditation, curriculum, personnel applications, and professional development for Principals and school communities. The CSO works in collaboration with Pastors, Principals, and School Boards to ensure that the needs of our students and educators are met each day and our educational ministry of preparing students academically, developmentally, and spiritually is successful.
