Catholic Trade Schools
Trade schools are common in the United States, but it is only recently that trade schools dedicated to a Catholic approach to learning the trades have opened up. A Catholic trade school is one that seeks to educate the whole person by combining the hands-on learning of skills with the formation of the human person on a spiritual and personal level. This involves joining a liberal arts education to educate both the mind and soul with the acquisition of excellent trade skills.Â
A Catholic trade school is a truly “integrated” education model–mind, body, and soul. This approach recognizes the dignity and rights of workers and intends to allow for the formation of solid Catholic tradesmen communities.Â
