Schools of Character: Faith-Inspired Public Schools in the Catholic Lasallian Tradition
In our world where church and state are separate, a religiously affiliated
public school is unlawful. However, Catalyst (public charter schools)
established roots in the Catholic Lasallian tradition not to defy law but
to demonstrate that a public school can work well within law as it embraces
the vision and values of a Catholic saint and progressive educator,
John Baptist de La Salle. This book explains how and why Catalyst
Schools came into being, and explores the roadmap they provide for
others inspired to follow their lead.The mission of Catalyst Schools is much like this scripture from
Qur' "Whoever saves the life of one human being, it shall be as if he
had saved the whole of humankind" (5:32). At Catalyst Schools we emphasize
saving humankind by serving each and every child who comes
through our doors.
