[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you with kids in big co-ed Catholic schools—how do you see them as different from public schools? Assuming both have large student bodies and offer the same kinds of activities, and your child is doing great academically either way… why choose the private (and pricey) route if you're not specifically seeking a religious focus? What do you feel you get from it? [/quote] The Catholic schools do not follow educational fads. They never adopted Lucy Calkins crap. They explicitly teach Phonics, spelling, grammar, and how to write a paragraph. They have worksheet for math practice. It is old school in a way that helps children learn the material. [/quote]
