- catalog abstract ""In this volume, James Youniss and John J. Convey call for an immediate reexamination of Catholic schools - one focused closely on the problems endemic to the schools themselves instead of on how they have impacted political issues, such as vouchers and school choice. In their contribution to this effort, the editors have compiled essays that explore how Catholic schools can retain their historical character while adapting to the demographic, personnel, and financial pressures confronting them at the turn of the millennium. Written by researchers and scholars in the field of Catholic education, these essays provide analysis and new data to illuminate the challenges and strategies that help Catholic schools achieve their goals. This volume uncovers the complex evolution of Catholic schools and looks toward their future. It will interest educators and anyone concerned with the development and well-being of parochial schools."--Jacket.".
