[quote=Anonymous]I really like that my kid has friends that are Muslim, Hindu, Atheist, Jewish, etc. I know Catholic schools can have all kinds, but it's not like public school. All their family is Catholic, so it's nice for them to get exposure to other religions and cultures outside of the family. I also tend to think the public schools have a little more breadth of experience/choices. Finally, although many of the Catholic schools around here are tolerant, I am concerned about my kids being gay or internalizing homophobic messages from a Catholic school. I don't think the schools affirmatively teach that anymore, but I don't think they will shut down a homophobic teacher the way that a public school will. And he abortion stuff is also problematic for me. [/quote]
