[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What makes it public school? Some people kill me on this board. If a school isn't 40k plus a year, low diversity, and 3 plus hours of homework a night isn't given its substandard. Children who go to SJC can score the same on the SAT that Big 3 students do. Only difference is their parents paid $80k while you paid $160k. [/quote] I think because it is an alternative for families who do not want to send their kids to Wilson...it is the "public" school with more bells and whistles, including a smaller overall class size. My son also shadowed there and receive the scholarship, but decided he wanted a more "unique" high school experience and went elsewhere.[/quote] That could be a fair point , but its still a Catholic school and so my questions would be: 1) what are the requirements in terms of religion classes and do they require that the faith histories of all religions are taught as the Episcopal schools do ? 2) What is the sex education requirement and are HS students educated about safe sex, birth control 3) what about gay identifying kids is there a LGBT support group and are they comfortable there[/quote]
