[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Catholic schools skip putting a condom on a cucumber, kwanza, "teachers meetings". [b]Then they teach children skills that will guarantee they will be independent.[/b] They also plant Jesus and God's love in their transem.[/quote] Really? The Catholic Church promotes independence? I guess I should rejoin.[/quote] We're talking about skills from the schools, not the church. I must agree . At our school there are no class newsletters from the teacher. Junior has to write his homework down and Mama can't check it online or look up Junior's grades. Homework every day and the child is accountable. Must get turned in at class time or no credit. Everything is written by Junior, not typed by Mama after he goes to bed. The teachers and principal know every single child and their strengths and weaknesses. These kids know their math facts cold and can spot bad grammar a mile away. They know Greek and Latin roots so vocab is a breeze. They may not have the fanciest lab eqipment but they have science every day. They have PE twice a week and a teacher who has zero problem with sitting them down if their teamwork or sportsmanship is lacking. They know when to have fun and when to settle down and work. They stay together as a class for many years so they get each other's peculiarities and everyone is accountable to themselves and each other. We couldn't be happier.[/quote]
