[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]But among the segment of the Catholics that are committed to these Catholic schools, it is seen as a thumb in the eye of the group. Or, they assume that there is some sort of problem or a behavioral issue or something that is driving this unusual behavior. The Catholic High Schools have formal and informal relationships with the parish schools that allow the to screen out kids that might be problems.[/quote]

Right, the only reason a Catholic would send their child to Sidwell over Gonzaga is because they have "behavioral issues."  I am a product of these Catholic schools and the attitude of these MoCo meatheads is all you need to know about why my kids won't be going near them.[/quote]

So, you dislike the group so much that you want to put as much distance as possible between your kids and you and them.

Given the way you feel, that seems reasonable. It's a free country.

But the vast majority of Catholics don't feel that way. They like being part of the community and want their kids to be included. They rarely ever even consider these Independent schools.

Why that bothers anyone is a mystery to me. It's just the way things are in DC.

In other cities, there isn't this Berlin Wall between the two.
