[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so weird when some people make a big deal about Catholic schools not being “private” schools. Fwiw, I’m a 50 something parent of kids in catholic schools in the dc area, and I attended catholic schools k through 12 in the dc area. I’ve heard all sorts of weird statements on this topic. - People who think “private” schools are dramatically different/better/more prestigious than catholic schools, so you cannot lump them together. - People who think Catholic schools are so unique that you should always use that term rather than the genetic private term. It’s dumb. Use whatever term you like; both are correct. And anyone who takes issue with such things should ask themselves why. [/quote] What about non-Catholic Christian schools? Most people say they send their kids to a Christian school or X Episcopal School, or a "religious private". They don't just say my kid goes to private school.[/quote]
