Kimberly Begg on Catholic Education in a Post-Truth World

CLT

On this episode of Anchored, Chelsea is joined by Kimberly Begg, Director of Programs and General Counsel of the Ortner Family Foundation. She discusses the foundation's latest project, the Catholic School Playbook. Catholic School Playbook is an online resource designed to help anyone interested in strengthening their Catholic school, including school leaders, pastors, superintendents, teachers, and parents. She explains that Catholic education is in crisis because it has adopted too many traits of modern education and that the best Catholic schools are faithfully Catholic. She states that we need to return to the way the Catholic church taught for 2,000 years in order to nurture the curious nature of children.
