At a conference at Catholic University in the Fall of 2005, Archbishop J.

So well received were his remarks and so important that Solidarity Association, which sponsored the conference, asked Archbishop Miller to expand his themes into this small book.

Then he lists and explains the five marks of all good Catholic schools marks which serve as standards by which to judge a school's Catholic identity and as goals for schools that seek to educate their students as the Church wants them to be educated.

This book is essential reading for all Catholics concerned about Catholic education.
