Both should have excellent programs for students so that they have an outstanding chance to succeed in both. The other area that the school needs to enhance is that of their theology curriculum. They appear to have a very good basic program but one that could be made even better with a little work. The idea of obtaining a religious-based education is to enable a student to do good things in the community with what they learn at school. The school needs to implement a program where the students could use what they are learning to give back to the community while learning how things in the real world work. The students should be given the opportunity to learn and grow by way of real world experiences, as this will only make them better people in the long run. References
