The purpose of Catholic education is to give a
well-rounded spiritual and academic education to
Catholic children. This education is open to all
Catholics regardless of any race, color, sex or national
and ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs,
and activities generally available to students in these
programs.
Therefore, it is and shall continue to be the policy of
our Catholic Schools to serve all Catholic children
equally. When openings are available, our schools
do and will continue to consider children of other
faiths for admission.
However, the Catholic Schools will
not allow themselves to become a haven for those of any faith wishing to
escape racial integration in the public schools. The student seeking
admission in circumstances or at times when this motive might seem to be
present, will be denied admission.
Faculty recruitment has been and
will continue to be processed without regard to race, sex or ethnic
background.
Bishop George Lucas
