Individual rights are recognized in public schools. Do Catholic schools recognize such rights?

0

Yes, the rights of Catholic school students are recognized and respected. Catholic schools believe—and teach—that human dignity is the foundation for human rights. This dignity is inherent within human nature. Rights are not derived from any government, nor are they arbitrary (i.e., based on what an individual thinks or wills), nor are they stand-alone (i.e., without connection to obligations). In sum, Catholic schools have an authentic understanding of human rights: (as) God-given, rooted in human nature, and connected to responsibilities.
