Summer Book Club

Shared reading and reflection is a key avenue for the Center’s work in accompanying Catholic school educators to be agents of change. Each summer, our Center offers a free online book club for Catholic school educators that runs for four weeks.

Joining our Summer Book Club gives you access to:

  • An exclusive podcast to guide readers through the key themes each week and provide additional depth and insight beyond the text
  • Live small group sessions to meet and share with other Catholic school educators
