Just posting this book review from the Opinion-Journal (Wall Street
Journal) website; it appears in the print WSJ journal today
on page A19.

I'm not Catholic, but I'll be passing along the article to
my brother as he surveys the options for his daughter (my
niece, of course!) in picking a private school setting.
Especially seeing how the public schools in the area are
a mish-mash of average-to-substandard educational settings.
The local public system is in such a mess that a school-bond
issue was resoundingly turned down this year.
And this is in a major state university town!
That tells you what a mess the public school administration and
teachers union have made of the situation.
When you can't get a liberal university town to vote for new
taxes!!!
Especially when "It's for the children!".

I have seen first hand the amazing things that happen in Catholic schools serving inner city minorities. There are wonderful charities like The Children’s Scholarship Fund which finance these schools. I don’t know if I can post a link here but google the name if you wish to donate.

Much better results for a fraction of the cost of the bloated public schools.
