[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College placements for both ebb and flow with the years, but Ireton has definitely seen an uptake as of late, and being almost half as much as SSSAS, Ireton is the better value. Where else can you guarantee almost $100 k savings over the period while still having a quality high school education without going into DC? Easy choice go with BI.[/quote]

My child seems genuinely uncomfortable with the overly religious aspects of BI so that is something we will be mulling over more once we hear about possible acceptances from these schools.  Financially, we can afford either one, but I also worry about SSSAS having a culture of too much wealthy and exclusivity.[/quote]

BI would not be a good fit if you describe your child as "genuinely uncomfortable" with the religious nature of the school. A student being non-Catholic is not a big deal. Like, at all. Being anti-religious is a different matter altogether.[/quote]

My child is not anti-religious.  But I will note that the March for Life signs in the classrooms at BI made her really uncomfortable. [/quote]

Why would a sign encouraging people to choose life make someone uncomfortable?  She doesn't have to participate.  Perhaps a sign that says choose abortion would make her more comfortable???  huh??  [/quote]

Give me a break. The abortion debate isn’t about life. That is gaslighting at its finest. The debate is about whether women, females, have the right to make their own healthcare decisions.  If men got pregnant this would never even be an issue. Further, if the debate were honestly about life, those who claim to be be pro-life would also be about supporting single parents, about free healthcare for poor kids in this country, about getting everyone vaccines who is medically allowed in order to prevent unnecessary deaths from communicable disease, and more. Instead the so/called “right-to-life” movement is really about controlling women and girls.  [/quote]
