[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you considered but decided against a parochial Catholic elementary school, can you share why? We’re debating between Haycock and either St. James or St. Luke’s.[/quote]

Besides the fact it is just an educational front for the next wave of "good Catholics"? Ok:
-Mediocre STEM (you can't claim otherwise when any mention of divinity enters science class)
-nuns and priests w/o an education background and who are, frankly, sub-par educators
-Overly strict, if not downright cruel, treatment by teachers, nuns, and priests
-Given the history of the Catholic church overlooking abuses of all kind, I do not trust them with my child
-history of secrecy in the Church, individually and as an institution, leads me not to trust them
-Do not want religious education for my child.

-Signed, K-12 Catholic School student and practicing Catholic until my 20's.[/quote]

I will also add, I did have a couple wonderful teachers through those years. But I can count them on one hand, with fingers left over. [/quote]
