In a landmark decision last week, the United States Supreme Court ruled in Carson v. Makin that a state cannot discriminate against religious schools in its program of tuition assistance.

Catholic schools are seeing growth in enrollment as more families recognize the advantages of small communities, uplifting support and rigorous education enhanced by a faith-based environment.
