Part of the Keynote Series, this book deals with the distinctiveness of the Catholic school and is intended to provide guidance to those who teach in a Catholic school by informing them of different facets that form the basis, the expectation, and the reality of the Catholic school. The book may be used: (1) as a resource in preservice information programs for Catholic teachers; (2) in graduate preparation for Catholic school administrators; (3) as a resource for teacher in-service and boards of education; and (4) as a guide to personal and professional growth of individual Catholic educators. The chapters include: "Life to the Full"; "Catholic Education: Learning and Believing"; "Catholic Education: Who's Right? Whose Right?" and "Permeation: Values or Hidden Agenda." Also included are resources, an annotated bibliography, and suggestions about how the book can be used. (TRS)
