[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would deeply investigate what they do to protect kids against sexual assault.[/quote] More than most public schools do - they have completely reworked things these days. We spent time at the school attached to our parish in the pandemic. Differences were: stricter behavior expectations, like scolding a kindergarten kid for silently fidgeting in Mass on zoom. Also much more proactive at combating bullying. Classes were small (under 10 kids), but no individual attention really because it was very “On this day we teach X in Y manner because ‘‘twas ever thus.” No centers, but that could have been Covid. They used cursive and referred to me as Mrs DHLastname constantly. The community was close knit so it was a little hard to break in but when we did we were IN in a way that felt kind and caring. Definitely not a perfect cultural fit for us, even though we practice at the parish, but we could have been happy there for years if we needed to be. [/quote]
