GEORGIA BULLETIN, THURSDAY, MAY 18, 1967 3
St. Joseph’s Explores
New Phase Of Education
With , the 1967-1968 school year, St. Joseph's. High School will enter
into a new phase in the development of Catholic education in the
Archdiocese. As Georgia Tech and Georgia State began as divi
sions of the University of Georgia, so St. Joseph originated in
1961 as a city annex to St. Pius X. St. Joseph achieved its au
tonomy after only one year as an annex.
Immediately it began its rapid
climb to distinction among pri
vate secondary schools in the
Atlanta area. St. Joseph grad
uated its first class only three
yeas ago in 1964.
In 1965 students were the re
cipients of approximately
$59,000.00 in scholarships and
grants to schools including
Notre Dame, Brown University,
Marquette, Boston College,
Emory, Georgia Tech, Univer
sity of Georgia, University of
Vermont, Dominican College in
New Orleans, Fontbonne in St.
Louis, ’ and Annapolis Naval
Academy.
Colleges recognize this
school in the heart of down
town Atlanta .Hers, on property
used for Caholic education
Since the turn of the century,
St. Joseph's is drawn into the
dynamic life of one of the na
tion’s leading cities. The school
is within a few blocks of two of
Georgia’s most outstanding col
lege campuses, Georgia State
and Georgia Tech.
It is within walking distance
of the commercial, merchan
dizing and banking centers of the
Southeast. Nearby are the new
Auditorium and Exposition Hall,
City hospitals, artmuseumsand
theaters—all educational and
cultural resources that become
more and more an integral part
of its daily academic program.
Among educators it is com
monly agreed that one of the
greatest influences in the ed
ucational development of a child
is the inter-relationships of the
students. St. Joseph's is unique
in the metropolitan area be
cause its school population
draws from practically every
segment of the community,
crossing social, racial and eco
nomic lines. With an anticipated
enrollment of over 500 students
during the coming year, it
reaches as far south as Jones
boro, west to Mableton, north
to Marietta and east to Stone
Mountain. Improved public
transportation makes it easily
accessible to every part of
metropolitan Atlanta.
In a questionnaire recently
submitted to parents, almost
unanimously they consider this
as a great advantage in the ed
ucation of their children. It
teaches them to live and work
with people from diversified
backgrounds. The central loca
tion in the city teaches them
responsibility since it exposes
them to the world in which the
majority will work,as our nation
grows ever more rapidly into an
urban, industrial society.
Parents are sensitive to per
ceive, as is the Church, that
this society must be affected
and influenced from within by
the Christian values which are
instilled in our children through
Catholic education.
Christianity cannot be taught
in a vacuum. It is a way of
life intimately related to the
pattern of life found in our
cities. Nothing gives better
testimony to the Church’s iden
tification with the city than the
Uniformed children who daily
make their way into its environs
to learn its ways,understand it,
*and ultimately to transform it.
With the closing of Drexel
High School in June, St. Joseph,
integrated since 1964, will ac
hieve a racial balance propor
tionate with that of the commu
nity itself. Thus, being a truly
central high school, not deter
mined by a particular geo
graphical district, it becomes
one of the few schools assured
of a continued balance in its
racial enrollment. It also in
cludes in its community a re
presentation of Latin American
and Asian students.
The Christian atmosphere,
which is the hallmark of Catho
lic education makes this a truly
catholic or universal institution
.in the full sense of the word.
This distinguishing character
istic brings the educational val
ues so long a tradition in- the
.Church to the American demo
cratic society as we find it in

fort in that area of the world,
Cardinal Ritter said that no
Christian can be indifferent to
another man’s needs.
"The field of the Church is
not to actually take hold of the
technical problems that exist
often in these areas,” he said.
"It is to give leadership, and
create a moral force within its
own community—whether it be
Protestant or Catholic—that
would alleviate and seek better
social conditions.’’

“The reason for the renewal
of the liturgy is to create that
internal strength to meet life,
to battle with problems and to
create a new humanity, a better
humanity.”
On racial tensions, Cardinal
Ritter said that "we are now
paying the price for neglecting
to give justice. We are finding
it very difficult to establish a
spirit of justice and charity
among the two groups of Ne
gro and white people.”
He expressed optimism about
the future of the ecumenical
movement. While separation,
suspicion and antagonism grew
in the past, today "people's con
sciences are being disturbed,
and they should be.”
"The ecumenical spirit is
growing,” he said. "I don’t
think anything can stop it. How
long it will take is in God’s
hands, but it may come much
more quickly than we realize.”
He attributed the vocation
today to a possible
"lack of a spirit of sacrifice," ,
He said today’s young people,
generally, "find it difficult”
to make a final decision of any
kind "or to attain that kind of
maturity to make a definite,
positive decision."
But even with a shortage of
priests, the cardinal said, the
U.S. Church cannot ignore the
needs of countries like those in
South America. A pioneer in
