Summary

It is not enough for a school to have a lofty purpose expressed in it mission statement. Its day-to-day operation must be aligned with its purpose. Principles alien to Catholic ideals can enter through the Trojan horse of popular policies and teching methods. Sorting the wheat from the chaff is far from easy. It is through recourse to catholic foundational principles that this accomplished.
