Catholic Parents' Clubs as an Agency for Guidance

The Initial, impetus for the present work arose from a practical problem. To the writer was given the assignment of organizing an association whereby the parents of ease eight hundred Catholic high school students might become mere vitally Interested In the work of their school. In its embryonic stage. the Idea envisaged these fathers and mothers. either separately or together. in some form of activity that would bring them into the school and that would assist them in making contacts with the teachers and the administrators of the school. |Viewing the field of similar groups, the writer, directly and indirectly, had observed such organizations as Fathers' Clubs, Mothers' Clubs, Catholic Parent-Teacher Associations, Home-School Associations, School Auxiliaries, etc. All of these federations had the same general notion of establishing tome contact between the school and the home; of furnishing an opportunity for parents and teachers to become acquainted. at least socially. if not for more mature purposes.
