Personal Comments:

I view the appointment as Secretary of Education as one of the most challenging role of my mission.

Catholic educators must utilize today's ever expanding technology to help our youth become learners for life. Equally important in preparing our youth for these new iniatives is the corresponding value of Catholic religious training. Our children must understand the Gospel message, their role in the community as Christians, and their obligation to share their God-given talents with others.

We must prepare our youth to live their faith in this complex world and, above all, we must focus on the family in all religious education.

Our basic goal must be to rekindle family unity with moral courage so parents and children can line our Catholic faith as partners through life's journey.
