[quote=Anonymous]We're not religious: we celebrate Xmas & Easter with trees, candy canes, presents, baskets, jelly beans, bunnies, etc. Kids have had no religious education at all, and in general we have no interest in sending them to a religious school. But we live in Alexandria, and want to give all local high school options serious consideration. Bishop Ireton is close to us, and several teachers have recommended that we consider it for HS. Would a kid with no Catholic (or religious) background feel out of place at Ireton? Do non-Catholics fare less well in admissions? Would the kids be bombarded with anti-abortion messages (which would drive their liberal parents batty)? In other words, is Ireton a good high school that happens to be Catholic, the way Georgetown is a good university that happens to be Catholic? Or is Ireton Catholic in the same way Liberty University is Evangelical Christian? thanks![/quote]
