  • The Conseil scolaire catholique Providence (Csc Providence) is the French-language Catholic school board for southwestern Ontario, Canada. The Providence Catholic School Board includes 10,000 students in its 31 schools: 23 elementary schools and 8 high schools for the communities of Windsor-Essex, Chatham-Kent, Sarnia-Lambton, London/Middlesex, Oxford-Woodstock, Grey-Bruce and Huron-Perth. The large French-language Catholic school network allows each student to feel as though he or she is part of a big Francophone school community based on faith, and to enjoy a high-quality education in a well-meaning, respectful and safe learning environment. The Providence CSB ranks first among all school boards located in Southwestern Ontario with a graduation rate of 93% as of 2020. The board was previously known as the Conseil scolaire de district des écoles catholiques du Sud-Ouest (CSDÉCSO). The board's head office is in Windsor, and it maintains satellite offices in the Pain Court section of Chatham-Kent, and in London; the London office serves Middlesex County. In 2021, the board attracted a significant outcry after it was revealed that the schools held a "flame purification" ceremony in 2019. As part of the program, over 4,700 books considered to be culturally outdated or offensive to Indigenous peoples were removed from school libraries and ceremonially burned. Among the thirty titles selected to be destroyed were several Adventures of Tintin novels, Lucky Luke, Asterix and the Great Crossing and two biographies of Jacques Cartier. A spokesperson described it as a "gesture of reconciliation with the First Nations and a gesture of openness towards other groups represented in the school district and in society." The board's decision sparked a major emotional backlash, including condemnations from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Conservative Party of Canada leader Erin O'Toole and Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet.
