A PREPARATORY EDUCATION TACKLES THE TOUGH QUESTION OF HOW TO ENSURE VALUES REMAIN IN OUR SCHOOLS. There is no denying the fundamental importance of a proper education for children. Both the individual and society benefit from the foundation that can come only from a good education. A school's mission, purpose, and direction are of utmost importance in producing competent graduates ready to lead a life filled with meaning and purpose. A Preparatory Education is an exploration of the Christian philosophy of education and its application to college preparatory schools. The model of a Christ-centered totality of education is applied to all aspects of school programs at the primary and secondary level, looking especially at the role of a preparatory school both in the overall system of education and in achieving growth in the Faith.BOOK REVIEW by John R. Wetsch, PhD.Professor & former Program Director of theNorth Carolina Window of Information on Student EducationThis book captures the essence of education and provides an outstanding treatise as to the value and need for education in modern society. Through the application of Christian values the book highlights the responsibilities of persons seeking an education, educators, and education in the family. From primary school through college education the need to be able to function in modern society is the essential act of utilizing the education we receive. This is not only in the secular world but requires the integration of the virtues of charity and wisdom. In essence the book provides direction for individuals to be part of society and to utilize their gifts, whatever they may be, to better mankind and themselves. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to be able to understand the true value and worth of receiving a worthwhile education at all stages of life.
