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.Catholic high schoolsUnited StatesHistoryCatholic high schoolsUnited StatesAdministrationCatholic high schoolsHistory.Catholic high schoolsAdministration.377.8273Bryk Anthony S281394Lee Valerie E1814045Holland Peter Blakeley1814046MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910965619503321Catholic schools and the common good4367627UNINA
