Extractions: A hill top site northwest of the present intersection of Holly Hills and Pennsylvania Avenues was set aside for church purposes in 1767 by Carondelet's founder, Clement DeLore de Treget. The first church erected there was a log chapel dedicated to St. Francis Xavier in 1775. Two succeeding churches, bearing the name of Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St. Joseph of the Angels were erected on this site. The first of these, built in 1819, was described as a "modest hut of rough boards." The second church was a stone structure which was completed in 1835. In 1859, the name of the parish, which was founded in 1824, was changed to St. Mary and St. Joseph and a new brick church was erected. It was situated on a site north of that of the earlier structures. The corner stone of the present church of St. Mary and St. Joseph at 6304 Minnesota Avenue, was laid in September, 1940. Adjoining the church is the parochial school which was constructed in 1926. St. Boniface Church at Michigan Avenue and Schirmer Street was founded in 1860 as the first German Catholic parish in Carondelet. The building, which was designed by Thomas W. Brady in the Romanesque style, has two 100 foot towers flanking its entrance. The towers were completed in 1868 and 1890 respectively. The parochial school, which was founded in January, 1860, now occupies a building which was finished in 1949. St. Columbkille's Church at 8202 Michigan Avenue was organized in 1872 to serve Irish iron workers of the nearby Vulcan Iron Works. The building was dedicated in March, 1873. Its pastor, Father Michael O'Reilly was called a "militant defender of the Church" bnecause of his defense of his parishioners against slurs of character. Before plans for a larger church were consummated, the iron works closed down and the parish population dwindled. The church was razed in 1952, at which time the parish was discontinued.

In that same year they established schools in Carondelet and Cahokia. The latter school was abandoned following damage by the flood of 1844.

Extractions: No. 59 January 2000 On Charter Schools More on Teachers Tough Love Dear Friends: Along with a little snow (which delayed us slightly in getting this to you), the beginning of 2000 brought some renewed attention to problems long plaguing public education, and some hope that things are turning around - thanks to the pressure education reform brings. Here's what you need to know about the world of education reform from this past month: According to the trade paper Education Week , the best and brightest leave education within a few short years, some states don't even provide for basic skills testing for teaching candidates and far too many have low standards. [Link to: more findings .] Add to that our own growing list of complaints - the barriers to entry, the bureaucracy - that shuts far too many interested folks out of the classroom and you have one reason that too many children fall between the cracks. Most of that is something we all can agree on - teachers, and even many union leaders included. What becomes murky is the solution. Here're a few being tried: The Colonial, Pennsylvania School District is in its first year of a pay-for-performance plan for teachers that will reward the highest performing 20 percent of teachers and allow them to reap the benefits of having effected greater student achievement. The plan - which required the services of an arbitrator to resolve union problems with it - bases yearly individual and group awards on tests, or where no appropriate test is available to gauge a particular set of children or a grade, independently-created evaluations based on other data will be used.

Extractions: To say that the Supreme Court and other federal and state courts have considered the issue of religion and public instruction often would be an understatement. Below is a list of some of the most significant court cases dealing with these issues over the last 50 plus years. It is crucial to note that many of these rulings are very fact specific and should be analyzed and applied cautiously to other fact situations. Everson v. Board of Education , 330 U.S. 1 (1947). The Supreme Court upheld a New Jersey statute authorizing a local school district to reimburse parents for the cost of bus transportation to public and religious schools. McCollum v. Board of Education , 333 U.S. 306 (1952). The Court found unconstitutional an in-school religious instruction program because public school buildings were being used to disseminate religious doctrine.
