[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]seems like all of the parochial schools have horrible outside space: Blessed Sacrament, St Augustine, OLV, and Holy Trinity. What is up with this? This is actually a big turnoff and part of why we are not applying to these schools. Combined with the large class sizes (with the exception of OLV), if you were to remove the religious component you might as well go public.[/quote] I also wish the grounds were more appealing but understand that parishes have limited capital to spend and many of these schools occupy a constrained, urban site. Most families who choose Catholic elementary schools focus more on the intangibles that cannot be found in a public school beyond academic rigor: faith-based education with an emphasis on core values and ethics, tight-knit community, small school size, and lack of teaching to a test. It depends on what your priorities are...[/quote]
