By David G Bonagura, Jr., The Catholic Thing - The summum bonum of Catholic education can be expressed in two words: Jesus Christ. Every Catholic school, every subject, every extracurricular activity exists to form students’ minds and characters after the heart of Christ so that they may live in union with Him in this life and the next. Catholic school students, therefore, ought to be immersed in the Eucharist so they can see, taste, and be transformed by Christ, present yet hidden under the veils of bread and wine.
