Catholic Education

For Black, brown and poor students in-person schooling is an essential service.

My experience taught me that Catholics play an important role in public and political life.

The coronavirus pandemic has caused campus ministries around the country to reassess how to best minister to their students.

I loved my school while I was there. I trusted its people to keep me safe, and they did. But was I just lucky?

A diocesan spokesperson for the diocese told Catholic News Service Oct. 6 that the diocese only learned of the closures at Cuomo’s news conference.

Bishop Barber said Oct. 1 the "economic devastation" in this country wrought by the pandemic "has already led to the closure of at least 150 Catholic schools, many in low-income areas that serve children of color."
