Law and Catholic Schools, Second Edition, Updated and Revised

Fourteen years have passed since the first edition in 1991. So many aspects of Catholic education have changed over the years. The number of religious and priests in Catholic schools have continued to decline, while the laity continued to provide strong, effective leadership and it is they who will largely set the future of Catholic education. The book is divided into seven chapters and begins with a pre-test to allow readers to assess their legal knowledge in chapter one. The following chapters present the following topics Civil Law Affecting Catholic Education: Torts: Bishops, Pastors, Principals and Boards: Parents, Students and Teachers; Special Topics and A Final Reflection. The book has been expanded to cover more topics than the 1991 1st Edition.
