Private Religious Catholic and Protestant Schooling in North America: Motivations and Outcomes

Mon, April 16, 10:35am to 12:05pm, Pan Pacific, Floor: Restaurant Level, Pacific Rim 1

Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

This session is designed to share and discuss the findings of an extensive, mixed-method international study of private religious Catholic and Protestant schooling in North America. Five teams of American and Canadian researchers studied the question of the longer-term academic, spiritual and cultural engagement outcomes of private religious Catholic and Protestant schooling in North America as well as the school processes that may explain various Catholic, Protestant, and public school effects. The main findings of this research programme are based on surveys of a representative sample of school graduates and of principals/administrators from randomly-selected private Catholic and Protestant schools in North America. Focused aspects of the research questions were further probed through four qualitative studies.
