Catholics Embrace Lay Teachers Surpassing Priests in Schools
The 1972 Catholic Almanac shows lay teachers in Catholic schools outnumbering priests and religious educators for the first time. In 1970-71 there were 106,844 lay teachers, 53.4 percent of total faculty, up from 47 percent in 1969-70 and 40 percent in 1967-68. Enrollment declined 6.6 percent while after school religious instruction grew by 33,752 students. The trend reflects changing perceptions of Catholic education and staffing.
