Sir, – Ned Monaghan writes (February 3rd) that "typically, Catholic children in America are educated in their Christian faith through Sunday school after church, or daily after school".
He does not mention the comprehensive Catholic school system (both elementary and high schools) which exists throughout the US.
Moreover, these schools are for the most part highly regarded and indeed enjoy the admiration of educationists both Catholic and others alike. I presume this omission to be an oversight on Mr Monaghan’s part, but it may be useful to remind readers of this large and significant strand in the US school system. – Yours, etc,
TOM STACK,
