[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on the school but there are mixed views on that. Many people find that the basic writing and math skills taught in Catholic schools give them a stronger foundation than public schools when the kids get to high school. What seems to lack is a broader degree of differentiation that you might get in public schools. Few if any K-8 Catholic kids get to Geometry for example. Advanced learners who might be in AAP and students at the other end of the spectrum don't necessarily have their needs met. Catholic schools are a good fit for a run-of-the-mill student who also wants a religious component to their education.[/quote] It took me all of two seconds to prove you wrong. Of course Catholic schools offer geometry. Here’s a typical example: https://www.ihm-school.com/academics/eighthgrade.cfm How many Catholic schools do you actually have experience with? What qualifies you as an expert on Catholic education?[/quote]
