[quote=Anonymous]This is an interesting perspective to me. As a Catholic, I send my children to Catholic school, I was sent to Catholic school, my parents went to Catholic school, my GRANDparents went to Catholic school. Originally, the Catholic schools were started because of the overt anti-Catholicism in this country against Catholics. Today, we choose to send our children to Catholic school because we want them to be surrounded by a community who shares our morals and values, and to teach our children that religion is not something that just occurs one hour a week, in church. It is everyday, a fabric of our daily lives. As a Catholic parent, I feel it is part of my responsibility -- and I will be called to answer for this someday -- to do my best to train up my children in the Catholic faith as well, to pass down my faith. I feel the best way to do this is to make the financial sacrifice to pay more $$ to send my kids to a Catholic school. [/quote]
