Catholic Parochial Schools
Catholic parochial schools are widespread, especially in urban areas, where they are considered the equal or better of many public schools. Catholic school children wear distinctive uniforms, and are taught by nuns and lay teachers in a religious atmosphere. Private Catholic colleges and universities operated by the many different Catholic devotional or public service orders exist all over the country and educate millions of students. In addition, Catholic charities and hospitals are widespread.
