[quote=Anonymous]Thanks, all. My kids are finishing 2 and 4 so will be interning 3 and 5. They have a math tutor now so I assume that will stay the same. Not because they are behind per se but for enrichment. (They say it is too easy in public.) we are Catholic and received  first communion so even though we are not super strict I don’t mind the praying and education. The reason I am switching is the incessant testing, poor teacher morale (they are quitting in droves and both my kids have been affected by this) and also it just seems like public schools have zero discipline and i do not like how they respond to kids that are disruptive and sometimes violent in class (eg they do nothing and my kids are scared). Also my school / PTA etc does not encourage  much parent involvement and it is so hard to stay informed on what is happening with them. 
I did not plan to send them to Catholic schools but it seems like the best option but I guess you don’t really know the culture well til you are there. Thanks for the tips esp about getting involved and learning the prayers. Will do! [/quote]
