[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just like every other school system, Catholic schools bill vary in rigor and by every other measure. That said, the idea that Religion Classes, attendance at Mass and other Catholic-centric aspects of the program might somehow detract from the overall academic rigor of the program in Catholic schools is laughable, preposterous, silly. ALL school programs dedicate a significant amount of time to non-substantive activities; they simply differ in their points of view and what they choose to emphasize. [/quote]

Religion classes are not "non-substantive."  Even if you are not Catholic, you learn something which involves a historical aspect along with morality and spirituality.  These classes usually require a lot of reading and writing, which is not a bad thing.

Compare that to what public schools are teaching in their woke curriculum with things like gender, sexuality, and anti racism.  All stuff that is very left on the political spectrum and likely not something many parents want their kids exposed to.  I will take the religion over the gender studies any day of the week, thank you.[/quote]
