Speaking Out: Catholic schools make me thankful
As I enter my last semester in Alberta’s publicly-funded Catholic schools, I am, more than ever, thankful for the Catholic education I have received.
Amid the current lobbying for the schools’ funding to be taken away and our education minister advocating against Catholicity clauses in teacher contracts, my gratitude only grows.
Academically, Catholic schools are not so different than any secular school, but there are unique differences in the character of our schools, and they have shaped me into the person I am.
