The reason why we have Catholic Schools and other things is because without Catholic Schools are children will not know of the true church and the Catholic Church will sooner or later just disappear..Catholic answer:Jesus, Himself, guaranteed to be with His church until the end of time. I kind of doubt that it will just disappear if we fail in our Catholic education. But it is true that it is important to pass the faith on to the next generation, and, Catholic education has played a big role in that during the past. One of the current drives right now is home schooling because parents are so upset with the education system and with good reason. True Catholic education, whether at a Catholic school or taught at home instills good Christian morals into our children, gives them a knowledge of God and His church. A great many of our priests come from Catholic education. Non-Catholic education in the United States has been dictated to by the government and the unions to the point where we really have to educate our children ourselves to insure that they get a quality education.

In the first millennium, in Europe, it was about the only education that anybody got. Higher education (at that time, just learning to read, write, etc.) was mostly confined to the monasteries and convents. They started the first schools which would later become colleges and universities. To this day Benedictines still teach in many schools. In the United States Catholic education at one time became the overwhelming way in which Catholic youth were taught so as to avoid the protestant indoctrination in the public schools (I have personal experience of this going through the public school system in the 1960's.) Nowadays, it is more to avoid the secular indoctrination than the old protestant indoctrination, at least that was Christian, this isn't even religious.
