[quote=Anonymous]Although religiously affiliated, these schools are not considered parochial. They are independent schools because they are independently financed, rather than church supported. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parochial schools, by far.[/quote] While this may be true broadly speaking, it looks like Catholic schools are really the low-cost parochial schools (and, next to public, the lowest cost school category). For example, I'd think most would consider St. Albans and Sidwell to be parochial schools. According to its website, Sidwell is "a Quaker day school" and they give admission preference to students who are "members of the Religious Society of Friends." St. Albans is "an Episcopal school with a pastoral commitment to all" and the website describes how boys attend the campus's chapel "to worship, pray, and learn." Yes, both admit kids of all faiths (or none) but they also both have a clearly identified religious affiliation.[/quote][/quote]
