The issue is rather simple. Like so many other schools and Administrators who attended the rally, "We believe that it is a civil right for parents to have a choice in the education of their child. Faith-based education has a right to be included in the list of opportunities, as much as any other type of school."
Sister Germaine Fritz, President, and Rosemary Anderson, Development Manager, led the way with a bus load of students and their parents. Standing in the cold in front of the State House did not discourage Senior student, Ariana, from speaking out on behalf of young people. At Benedictine Academy, it is part of our Mission Statement that we provide equal opportunity for all young girls to receive a quality college-preparatory education.
