[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really surprised there is no thread on this issue in the Private Schools forum.  I wonder how many people will keep their kids in Catholic schools now?[/quote]

We're looking at Catholic schools and most are not priests and nuns and regular teachers.  It concerns me but MCPS is having a lot of issues and cover-up so its where ever you go.  Our MCPS will not allow parent volunteers and is really closed so that concerns me far more than a Catholic that allows parens and is more open and welcoming.[/quote]

I taught in a Catholic school.  Our regular Lay-Principal directed me to cover up physical abuse of a student by his parent.  She wanted me to let the priest deal with it instead.  I went home, said no f*ck*ing way, and called the department of family services.  When child services showed up the next day at school, the principal walked by me and said under her breath several times, "We don't cover up things here".  She was a whack job.  Please don't believe that just because their are lay leaders and regular teacher in parochial schools that cover ups still don't happen.  Secrecy and concern for church reputation trumps victims in the Catholic system every time.  [/quote]
