[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=MamaCCG]Catholic elementary school is great if you’re cool with huge classes, think all kids are auditory learners and like doing hours of homework every night. [/quote] The 3 nearby Catholic elementary schools we visited had class sizes between 20-25. There was some homework, but the amount seemed reasonable to us. We are not Catholic, instead protestant, and live in an FCPS area. [/quote] I think it depends on what your public is like. We've been in ours in different years and class size was 21 one year and 17 for the other kid. Local Catholic schools told me they shoot for 21-22 in each class. We have seen pretty much zero homework in public school and friends with kids in older grades have said they still don't have homework.[/quote] My kids went to public for elementary and middle school, and attended Sunday school at the local catholic K-8. I remember laughing when the teacher apologized that there were 18 kids in one section, as they had to bring in extra desks from a different classroom. It was the smallest class my kid had ever had, and at the Catholic school they never had a class that big.[/quote]
