Catholic Educators Take Stand Against School Violence

The National Catholic Educational Association believes schools and parish programs should be places that teach peace and hope for all students and their families, where all are treated with respect and where all can learn. We add our support to those who are working for the elimination of all types of violence, for a ban on the sale and possession of military-assault weapons, for the promotion of programs that provide mental and emotional health resources, sensible safety instruction and support healthy families.
