Talk:Catholic school

message: Why can't this be merged with Catholic education? There is nothing here that suggests a separate article is necessary. Daniel Case 03:05, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello. I think we should change (or at least add some references) the sentence that says "a requirement that the student must be Catholic to attend a Catholic school is extremely rare". I believe this is incorrect, as this is common practice in Puerto Rico. There, one must present a certificate of baptism in order to be enrolled in the school. Thank you.

replies: text: While I believe it is uncommon to require a child to be Catholic, there is a "priority" list for admission: 1) Parents are members of the parish, 2) Parents are not members but are Catholic, 3) Parents are not Catholic. There may be state support of Catholic schools in Puerto Rico (and Canada and other states) that may make the priority list different, and there are limited seats in some schools. I know places are limited in my local parish. Some non-Catholics are turned away, I'm sure because of the priority list, but not because of bias, per se. Accepting all comers has been a guiding principle not only for decades but at least back a century. Student7 11:31, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

message: No info on Australian Catholic schools?

message: There are many urban legends about Catholic schools, which maintain that these schools mainly serve an indoctrination purpose. This should maybe be explored in the content of the article.  ADM (talk) 15:38, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Another controversy is the notion that Chinese immigrants succeed and stay in school because the Chinese place a very high value on education - something that is allegedly not a defining feature of Roman Catholic culture.  ADM (talk) 12:54, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: While Asian performance has been high in schools, as well as Jewish, and probably "New England", I haven't noticed much difference in "Roman Catholic culture" and any other culture in education. Most Catholics live in cities and today are generally better educated than most other people within their socio-economic groups except for the ones just mentioned.

thread_title: Controversies and Urban legends

message: An entry for the Phillipines discusses Catholic colleges. English speakers have made an assumption (bias?) that the article was supposed to mean elementary and secondary schools only. Conforming to English understanding of the scope of the article, I would like to delete that entry. 
It does seem to beg the question: "What about Catholic colleges?" There does not seem to be a separate article. Student7 (talk) 14:38, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Article scope

message: Not mentioned are the 11 or so states where public funding of parochial schools was not banned by Blaine Amendments to state constitutions. I went to parochial school in NJ decades ago and rode the public school bus (which did not go out of its way) to a place near where I could conveniently walk the few blocks to my school. Despite the shrillness of the haters, a lot of other financing must go on in states where it is legal. A reference was deleted for lack of a footnote. Probably examples should be supplied.

thread_title: Funding for US Catholic schools

message: It would be interesting if we could have a similar article about the Catholic hospital and the administrative questions that surround it. ADM (talk) 21:06, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Catholic hospital

message: It would perhaps be relevant to note the widespread secularization of Catholic schools since the publication of the document Gravissimum Educationis. While it cannot be said that this phenomenon is somehow related to the document, a number of social factors have made Catholic schools much more difficult to manage, such as the rapid ageing of priests and nuns, the socio-cultural effects of the Church's dialogue with the World, the educational policies of various secularist governments, the public acceptance of birth control, administrative negligence on the part of diocesan authorities, doctrinal or moral dissent within liberal Catholic institutions, the financial impact of the clerical abuse scandal, etc. ADM (talk) 07:21, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Secularization of Catholic schools

message: I am just wondering how in the second statement:
"As of 2011 the Church operates the world's largest non-governmental school system." ... it claims that AS OF 2011, and yet the reference/source it is being attributed to was published 6 years prior -- 2005.
This is the source it is being referred to:
