Who cares? All-male schools should not have female teachers.

The Heights does not have them as a philosophical matter – – many other all boys schools in and out of this area (including Prep, Gonzaga, and St. Albans) have terrific female faculty members. Someone seems to be going out of their way to be offensive or immature.

So what is the philosophy behind this concept? Just curious.

Wait, what?! Why is that, PP? Are female teachers too "distracting" or do they just "not get boys"?

Maybe they're supposed to be at home birthing babies and churning butter?

That would be preferable to our modern situation. The Heights is a Traditional all-male Catholic private school. Why do you care what they do? They are perfectly free not to hire female teachers. It's their buisness, not yours. If you don't like that, don't send your son there. End of conversation.

Well then, please explain what is wrong with the "modern situation." There are plenty of highly respected traditional all boys schools that employ female teachers. What kind of message is being sent to these boys when they have no female role models.

My DS shadowed at The Heights. He did not mention the fact there were no female teachers and this is the first I heard of it. He did not like the Heights. So glad he chose another school.

In a Christian society, the place of women would be in the home raising kids, while men work and provide for the family financially. Now I'm not saying that America is a Christian society, because it's not. Maybe 5-10% of the population in America is actually Christian. I'm saying that the Traditional Catholic and the Traditional Protestant view is in support of traditional gender roles. Now I know that makes the heads of most DCUMers explode , but you have to realize that not everyone agrees with you. My main point was that the Heights is a private, all-male school. What they do is NONE Of your buisness. Not every school has to be a Leftist diversity mill.

Wow -- do you really believe that "tradition", pp? Does your circle of friends?

What you are saying is the philosophy they are teaching (the young male mind!) is that of a traditional thought process in which the female does not work? What about women who are not yet married or married and do not have children? Are THEY not permitted to be teachers of boys? What is the traditional role they would espouse for women in those scenarios?

I'm not saying that's what Heights teaches. I'm saying that's what I believe. All Traditional Catholics and Traditional Protestants believe this. I'm sure some Heights families believe what I believe. ( it's is a Traditional Catholic school after all)

Mom of 6 yr old boy here. I wish there was a non religious all boy school with all male teachers that I could send my son to.

Maybe in later elem. I'll change my mind, but for now, an all male education is in the best interest of my child.

Oh come on. That is so ridiculous. My husband comes from a family of extremely conservative Catholics, with strong views on pro-life, traditional marriage (man and woman), and other very conservative issues. Both his sister and his mother are teachers. There is nothing in Christian belief that says women should not work or have a profession. You are certainly welcome to that belief system, but that is a very rare belief among Catholics...traditional or not.

I AM a practicing Catholic, PP! I don't know what you mean by the term "Traditional Catholics", do you really mean you are Opus Dei or believe in pre-Vatican II?

You never answered the question about whether young women teachers who are either not married or married without children. Are they allowed to teach or work in your eyes? If not, what should they be doing from your "traditional" outlook.
