Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Catholic education remains one of the most compelling expressions of the Church's mission to form disciples. Despite decades of decline in the number of schools and students, many Catholic schools have been experiencing renewal by returning to the great legacy of the Catholic tradition. Renewing Catholic Schools offers an overview of the reasons behind this renewal and practical suggestions for administrators, clergy, teachers, and parents on how to begin the process of reinvigoration.The book begins by situating Catholic education within the Church's mission.

The teacher, ultimately, should strive to teach like Jesus, while the community should joyfully embody the school's mission, making it a lived reality. The book concludes with examples of Catholic schools that have successfully undergone renewal.…
