Abstract

Catholic high schools do not generally have a reputation for serving students with special needs. This article, using primary sources related to one high school’s history, demonstrates how even an academically elite school can meet the needs of a wide range of students. Specific strategies are suggested that can help Catholic high schools be more inclusive.
