"At the present time there is no such attitude since almost all the Catholic schools have been closed."

PAcatholic: There are still, according to the National Catholic Educational Association,  2 million children in US Catholic schools (primary and secondary) and nearly 3 million in such schools -- if one includes Catholic universities and colleges. Some Catholic secondary schools in the Washington, D.C., Boston, New York and Chicago area, for example, do very well, with their graduates getting into excellent colleges and universities. Jesuit Nativity schools also do wonders for under-privileged students in the inner cities. So not "almost all" Catholic schools have been closed, as it were. Many, many are thriving.
