v Curriculum fx Demonstrating the preparation of a table for a sick call. X17 T is necessary that all the teaching and whole organization of the school and its teachers, syllabus, and textbooks in every branch, be regulated by the Christian spirit. At Nardin Academy, as at every good Catholic school, religion is the foundation and crown of the youth's entire training. A sacred atmosphere is evident not only in one forty-five minute period, but in every class throughout the day. For a school to be Catholic, actually as well as nominally, the student must be taught Christian principles and their application in every aspect of life. This Catholic influence is especially apparent in classes such as history. As the pupils study the methods which man has used in dealing with his fellow man, they are taught the necessity for justice and charity in these relations. They are guided in their studies to accept the correct attitude toward wealth and worldly prominence. In science courses, it is re-emphasized that God made all things and that science and religion must agree. The dignity of the human body as a temple of the Holy Ghost is mentioned as biology students study body functions. In every class, no matter how technical it may be, all work is begun by prayer and offered to God. A crucifix and other religious articles are always in view. In the words of Leo XIII, every subject is per- meated with Christian piety.
