[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks all. I think we are probably going to rule Ireton out-- doesn't sound right for our family. That was my initial instinct, but wanted a gut check. [/quote]

OP, I'm the PP with the non-Catholic neighbor at BI.  If it's not right, it's not right, and I would trust your gut if it's telling you that.  However, I hope you won't make that decision based solely on the postings on this Board. My kids are at one of the Catholic elementary/middle feeders to BI. I am not Catholic; DH is.  DH wanted to our kids to go to Catholic school and our public wasn't great so I was generally on board.  Then I started reading posts on DCUM about the NOVA Catholic schools we were considering and I nearly convinced myself that this wasn't right for my family for a variety of reasons.  We went ahead and visited our top choice and thought it was a wonderful school.  Now, several years later, my kids love their school, and we have made great friends.  I got so wrapped up in the negatives posted on this Board (whether generally just that Catholic schools are inferior to public schools or digs at Catholic education or whatever), but the reality was very different once I was there.[/quote]
