本文探讨了就读美国天主教学校所带来的实质性好处是否也存在于澳大利亚天主教学校的学生身上。我们发现，尽管成本相对较低，但就读澳大利亚天主教学校可以使完成高中学业的可能性提高 17 个百分点。证据还表明，就读澳大利亚天主教学校会增加获得高等教育的可能性，并与劳动力市场的优异表现相关。
This paper examines whether the substantial benefits reported for attending Catholic schools in the United States also exist for students of Catholic schools in Australia. We find that despite its relatively low cost, attendance at Australian Catholic schools increases the probability of completing high school by 17 percentage points. The evidence also suggests that attendance at Australian Catholic schools increases the probability of obtaining higher education and is associated with a superior performance in the labor market.
