On the Edge: Your Catholic School Guide to Student Recruitment and Retention - 9781452570242

Are you part of a Catholic school community that is experiencing enrollment issues? Does your school have difficulty recruiting and retaining new students? St. Genevieve High School in Panorama City, California, was facing just such a harsh reality: its reputation was shot and enrollment was waning.
By deciding to bring the school back from the edge and work toward achieving an "Ideal Catholic School Community," St. Genevieve is now one of the great success stories in contemporary Catholic education. On the Edge relates that story, directly offering up the voices of faculty and staff --and their diverse perspectives--while providing an engaging and straight-talking narrative by the principal who led this stunning transformation.
