[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are asking folks to make a comparison of apples to oranges. You are also referencing schools where there is little overlap in terms of family communities. While an episcopal school, St. Andrew’s is not a parochial school such as the others you’ve mentioned. I really doubt too many folks look at it while also seriously considering parochial. Everything about St. Andrew’s is different - the teaching training and model, diverse community, etc. St. Andrew’s is priced like a private, not a parochial. It is certainly worth your consideration as it seems to only receive positive reviews here on DCUM and seems to be a school that would offer a student of your child’s profile a good learning and growing experience, but the only way to compare is to go, look, and make your own assessment.

Huh? If you are referring to Our Lady of Good Counsel High School, it is NOT a parochial school. Not sure you understand the word. Do some research before you post like you know what you are talking about. [/quote]

That’s just misleading and splitting hairs. Only those within the catholic education community would say a Xaverian Brothers Sponsored School isn’t a parochial school. To the rest of the world, including secular colleges, all the catholic schools are considered to be parochial.

New poster here. Parochial school most commonly refers to a school supported by an individual parish or SPECIFIC church not by an order or by THE Church. Also, the term is not even restricted to a Catholic schools. For instance an Episcopal parish school could be referred to as parochial. 
And despite your assertion, yes, the rest of the world knows this. I’m not even Christian and I understand the difference. [/quote]
