[quote=Anonymous][quote]School philosophy is very important, IMO. [b]Strict Catholic families, for example, might be pretty uncomfortable sending their children to schools that openly embrace gay families.[/b] If your family really values competitive sports or music, then certain schools are going to be more appealing than others. Same with single-sex schools. In the upper grades, you want an open urban environment or a closed campus, suburban one? Do you want language immersion--there are only a few schools that offer that in the early grades? When you are looking at schools for a kindergartener, these things might not always be a concern, but they are worth thinking about as many, if not most, children who start at K in the K-12 schools stay there all the way through. If you are happy with a school, I think that your child and your child's teachers will pick up on that.[/quote] I get it. Clandestine embrace of homosexuality as practised and protected by Catholic priests is far preferable.[/quote]
