[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am debating on putting my 11 yr and 4 yr old in catholic school next year. Some say don't do it, it's a waste of money, some say your children will be sheltred and need to be able to be exposed to peer pressure.or yes, do it your children will get a better education. I'm so confused. I just want the best for my kids and to stay on the right path. I do my best to teach my kids to be responsible, manners, discipline and work hard and school comes first. Still undecided on what I should do[/quote] I think the 11 year old should have a lot to say in the matter. The money -- depends, tuition is relatively low. But I don't think education is a "waste" of money. Uh, yes, there's peer pressure at Catholic schools. "Better" education is often in the eyes of the beholder or determined in hindsight. But most often depends on the particular teacher and peer group your kid has. Go to the school and check it out, ask questions, go when the school is in session to see the students, try to get a feel for the place. I still don't know the answer to your questions and I have one kid in high school (public all the way) and 2 kids in Catholic. [/quote]
