Catholic Schools and the Common Good
Author: Anthony S. BRYKPublisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674029038
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
The authors examine a broad range of Catholic high schools to determine whether or not students are better educated in these schools than they are in public schools. They find that the Catholic schools do have an independent effect on achievement, especially in reducing disparities between disadvantaged and privileged students. The Catholic school of today, they show, is informed by a vision, similar to that of John Dewey, of the school as a community committed to democratic education and the common good of all students.

Pillars of the Republic
Author: Carl KaestlePublisher: Hill and Wang
ISBN: 142993171X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Pillars of the Republic is a pioneering study of common-school development in the years before the Civil War. Public acceptance of state school systems, Kaestle argues, was encouraged by the people's commitment to republican government, by their trust in Protestant values, and by the development of capitalism. The author also examines the opposition to the Founding Fathers' educational ideas and shows what effects these had on our school system.
