[quote=Anonymous]It can depend on the school and the community. Some places, it's not a big deal; other places, you might feel excluded--either because of the religious issue per se or because most of the other families attend the same parish and have other connections. No matter what, you have to be okay with overt religious instruction (the emphasis of which will also depend on the school) and required participation in Mass (my parochial school had weekly Mass for all the kids). You really need to visit the school. Also, don't assume that the Catholic school is better--some are great, some are mediocre, and some are mediocre *at best.* They might not have the facilities and resources that a public school has, the teachers might not have the same qualifications, etc. It's really dependent on the schools at issue.
