American Catholic Schools for the 21st Century
Catholic schools in the United States today are very different from the Catholic schools that first opened in the 18th and 19th centuries. This handbook is a call to action for all Catholic elementary schools, inviting and challenging all Catholic educators to plan for the future. The volume is the first in a series of handbooks containing essays on the future of Catholic elementary schools, asking, "What will Catholic elementary schools in the next ten years be like?" Contents include the following: (1) "Introduction" (Robert J. Kealey, Ed.D.); (2) "The Future of Catholic Schools" (Sister Barbara Davis, SC, M.A.T.M.); (3) "Looking to the Future with Eyes on the Past" (Jim Brennan, Ed.D.); (4) "A Dream That Cannot Be Deferred" (Elena Casariego Hines, M.A.); (5) "Build It Now" (Lorraine Hurley, M.Ed.); (6) "St. Mary's School" (Sister Mary Ann Governal, OSF, Ed.D.); (7) "Reflections on Catholic Schools for the 21st Century" (Patricia Cantieri, M.Ed.); (8) "Translating from One Century to the Next" (Sister Joseph Spring, SCC, M.A.); and (9) "Creating a School for the 21st Century" (Sister Antoinette Dudek, OSF, Ed.D.).

Catholic School Leadership
Catholic School Leadership addresses many of the challenges facing those who prepare faith leaders and education leaders for the Catholic schools of the future. The well-known editors and contributors to this volume have written about their personal experiences with Catholic schools; the educational foundations of Catholic schools; teacher preparation and development; Catholic school leadership; dealing with parents and families; and the challenges of technology for Catholic schools. The contributions emphasize the perspectives of both scholars and practitioners within Catholic education and will interest anyone who has experienced time in a Catholic school either as a student, teacher or administrator, as well as those interested in what is happening within Catholic schools today.
Catholic Education
This collection of essays is concerned with the Catholic Church’s understanding of the nature of human flourishing and the processes of education that flow from it. Each essay seeks, in its own way, to explore, illustrate and provide insights into the application of Catholic education policy and practice in differing socio/legislative circumstances. The book is divided into three main sections. The first explores Catholic teaching on education, its ethical basis and the Christo-centred nature of Catholic school leadership. The second considers some of the structural characteristics of Catholic educational systems in England, the United States of America and Jordan. The third section illustrates, in a series of case studies, how the universal precepts underpinning Catholic education are implemented in a variety of national and international contexts.
