[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I hope not. I enroll my kids in a jewish school because I want them to make predominantly jewish friends, and to be in an environment where jewish people are the majority.[/quote]

Wow, that's quite telling. Is this how most feel?[/quote]

It's not remotely surprising. That's why people of specific faiths and traditions send their kids to those schools - not to have a diverse experience - to have a curated one. That's why it's a private school. It's the same for Catholic Schools, all-male, all-female schools, etc. (Though I suppose the Christian schools are more likely to proselytize and therefore try to attract non-believers.)[/quote]

I send my kid to a Catholic school and am happy that there is diversity, even though we are practicing Catholics.  Private school is enough of a bubble...would prefer my kid be exposed to people of other faiths and ethnicities. But I see what you are saying here.[/quote]

So why not send your kid to a non secular private?  [/quote]
