Below is the link to an article I wrote recently for the National Catholic Register on Catholic education. It’s a condensation of a longer presentation I gave recently to the faculty and administration of Kolbe Academy-Trinity Prep in Napa, California. The points I raise in the article are, I am sure, blindingly obvious to you. Unfortunately, for many people they are not obvious. Indeed, some Catholics would insist they are not true.

In any case, I hope you don’t mind my sending this, even at the risk of tooting my own horn. As a former Catholic school teacher, I think this is a crucial topic, given that so many institutional resources of the Church are tied up with Catholic schools.
