One common challenge is engaging students from diverse backgrounds while maintaining adherence to the school's religious mission.

What is a traditional Catholic?

Traditional Catholics are members of the Catholic Church who prefer the liturgy, teachings, and practices that existed before the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965). They often attend the traditional Latin Mass (also called the Tridentine Mass) and emphasize traditional forms of worship, doctrine, and discipline. Traditional Catholics may be part of parishes that exclusively use the pre-Vatican II rites or participate in groups that seek to preserve these older practices within the wider Catholic Church.
