[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you open to Catholic school? Sounds like she might be a good fit for Ireton. This area is so transient, I’d assume they might have openings for 11th, but I don’t know for sure. [/quote] DH grew up Catholic but no longer identifies with it. I wasn't raised Catholic but have started exploring Catholicism. So we would probably both be open to considering a Catholic school if it were a good fit in other respects. But I'm also a little hesitant because I've heard several people my age speak negatively about their Catholic school experiences (harsh teachers, lots of guilting, etc.). I don't know if that's a relic of the past or not. Also, DD wasn't raised religious. Would we need to be a family of practicing Catholics in order for our child to go there? How strong is the religious emphasis in such a high school?[/quote]
