 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Brothers
The Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools is a society of male religious approved by the Church, but not taking Holy orders, and having for its object the personal sanctification of its members and the Christian education of youth, especially of the children of artisans and the poor.
Under the administration of Brother Timothée successful negotiations resulted in the legal recognition of the institute by Louis XV, who granted it letters patent, 24 September, 1724; and in virtue of the Bull of approbation of Benedict XIII, 26 January, 1725, it was admitted among the congregations canonically recognized by the Church.
For the Church of France this was the spring of a new era; for the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools it was a resurrection.

 Organization Studies: Masculinity and women teachers at Christian Brothers College
Like other schools, and other organizations, CBC is a cultural site in which broad social expectations and relationships (such as gender relationships) are sustained and developed and, at the same time, also mediated and refracted so that they are given a particular quality in their specific context.
CBC is of particular interest for this purpose because, until fairly recent times, it had been virtually an all-male institution, and the very fact of its single-sex nature highlights the significance of gender in its organization.
This is illustrated by reference to versions of masculinity that are prevalent at CBC, the symbol of the Virgin Mary, the place and nature of discipline in the school, and its hierarchical form of administration.

 Jacques Maritain Center: JM 3/15
This commemoration brings a particular significance to the present celebration, which is a testimony, among many others, of the great work achieved by the Christian Brothers, and the extraordinary manner in which the mission of their saintly founder has succeeded in the course of two centuries and a half.
In France we are accustomed to think of the Christian Brothers as dedicated to a kind of teaching which goes very far indeed and covers large fields of knowledgg, but keeps voluntarily aloof from secondary education as well as from college education and higher learning.
In this perspective the particular occurrence I am now discussing, the task assumed by the Christian Brothers in liberal education under the incentive of the American bishops, appears as a token of that liberal education for all which is to be expected, I believe, from the future of our civilization.
