The Piarist (in Italian language: Scolopi
,
in Spanish: Escolapios
) Order was founded by Saint Joseph of Calasanz
who lived in the sixteenth century. In Rome he found the children living
in extreme poverty in the streets of the Trastevere
district.
Joseph of Calansanz invented the free education for all the children whereas
teaching was reserved only for those who could pay a private teacher. This
was a successful idea. Piarist
were called out in Europe. He became the patron saint of the Christian
popular education. Nowadays the Order consist of 1500 members scattered
all over the world. If you wish more information, please connect your on:
