One of the challenges to Catholic identity is that Catholic schools are faced with the challenges of meeting the needs of students from low socio-economic backgrounds. The analysis of the qualitative phenomenological study underscores the invaluable role of principals of Catholic schools in the Diocese of Ondo. Using social justice and Ubuntu, the collective solidarity in African life theoretical framework, the research, therefore, describes the commonality in the experience of principals dealing with students from low socio-economic backgrounds.This study is relevant because it focuses on the invaluable role of the principal as an agent of the new evangelization who strives beyond administrative skills to embrace the ethics and ethos of the Catholic faith, thereby making their schools a place of encounter and witnessing the creative power in humanness. The researcher collected the data through an open-ended semi-structured interview involving web-based (virtual) interaction with 10 Catholic principals to understand the phenomenon's essence. The two broad questions are about what the participants experienced about the phenomenon and what situations affected their experiences. The four critical themes that emerged from the data analysis are stewardship, inclusion, compassion, and witnessing. These are the goals school leadership articulated as leaders of new evangelization.
