Do all Catholic parishes support Catholic schools?
The Archbishop stated at the outset of this review of Catholic schools that all Catholics, including all Catholic parishes—even those with no direct affiliation to a school, will be required to support Catholic schools. Consistent with what the U.S. Bishops said in their 2005 statement, “Renewing our Commitment to Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools in the Third Millennium,” the Archbishop will call on all Catholics to support Catholic education, a core mission of the Church.
