When my 91-year-old mother-in-law Ruth died last year, she suggested that people give memorials to Aquinas High School in La Crosse, her alma mater. She believed she had an excellent education at Aquinas, and she wanted to ensure that it remained around to educate future generations.
That is one way we can support our Catholic schools. Many of us experienced top-notch educations at our Catholic elementary and high schools as I did. We continue to support these schools with our time, talent, and treasure. Many of us are also parents of students who attended Catholic schools, and we support those schools, too.
