Alongside parents, teachers stand on the front line of education. In addition to delivering academic content of the highest quality and maintaining engaged and well-ordered classrooms, Catholic educators are called upon to shape the minds, hearts, and souls of their students, guiding them along the path of holiness in the midst of the wildness of the world.

Every education system begins to fail its students the moment it forgets that its students are human. But it fails those students all the more when it remembers that they are human but neglects their humanity.
