[quote=Anonymous]1. Our school day is longer. 2. Mass is once a week. 3. Standardized testing only 2x/year and no real "prep" for it since the students know the material. 4. After-school tutoring every day and kids are expected to show up. 5. Families care about education, so kids care about education. Our facility kind of stinks, but who cares? My son does far better in Catholic school than public by any objective measure. They're not trendy or modern, but they're really effective. I don't understand why some people get so butthurt over the idea that Catholic schools are doing something right. Rigor and high expectations are good. [/quote]
