One day after the inaugural hoopla in Washington a quiet measure honoring the contributions of Catholic schools was approved by voice vote in the House. The measure praised Catholic schools for their academic accomplishments, education of minority students, and emphasis on values. It also supported the celebration of Catholic Schools Week Jan. 25-31 .
