ChristianEducation Gravissimum educationis.The documentdescribes the distinguishing characteristic of aCatholic school in this way:“The Catholic schoolpursues cultural goals and the natural developmentof youth to the same degree as any other school.What makes the Catholic school distinctive is itsattempt to generate a community climate in theschool that is permeated by the Gospel spirit offreedom and love.It tries to guide the adolescentsin such a way that personality development goeshand in hand with the development of the\"newcreature”that each one has become throughbaptism.It tries to relate all of human culture tothe good news of salvation so that the light of faithwill illumine everything that the students willgradually come to learn about the world,aboutlife,and about the human person”.!  \nThe Council,therefore,declared that whatmakes the Catholic school distinctive is its religiousdimension,and that this is to be found in a)theeducational climate,b)the personal development  \nof each student,c)the relationship establishedbetween culture and the Gospel,d)the illuminationof all knowledge with the light of faith.  \nThe occasion,the addressees,the purpose  \n2.More than twenty years have passed since thisdeclaration of the Council.In response to sugges-tions received from many parts of the world,theCongregation for Catholic Education warmly inviteslocal ordinaries and the superiors of ReligiousCongregations dedicated to the education of youngpeople to examine whether or not the words ofthe Council have become a reality.The SecondExtraordinary General Assembly of the Synod ofBishops of 1985 said that this opportunity shouldnot be missed!The reflection should lead toconcrete decisions about what can and should bedone to make Catholic schools more effective inmeeting the expectations of the Church,expectationsshared by many families and students.  \nSources  \n3.In order to be of
