SRES 594 United States Senate · 119th Congress

A resolution supporting the contributions of Catholic schools in the United States and celebrating the 52nd annual National Catholic Schools Week.

SRES 594 is a non-binding Senate resolution supporting Catholic schools and celebrating the 52nd annual National Catholic Schools Week (January 25-31, 2026). It recognizes Catholic schools’ contributions by highlighting their academic excellence, diverse student enrollment (including 34.9% racial minorities and 21.8% non-Catholic students), and high graduation rates (98.6%). The resolution formally applauds the National Catholic Educational Association and U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops for organizing the week and its theme, "Catholic Schools: United in Faith and Community." It does not create new policies or allocate funds, serving solely as a symbolic expression of support for these schools.
