[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Far less expensive than other privates and easier to get into [/quote] True for parochial Catholic schools, but not independent Catholic schools.[/quote] I find the independent Catholic schools are not worth the cost. The parochial K-8 are just as good at a fraction of the cost, yet provides the same moral and academic preparations. They also help their kids prepare for the HSPT and give a boost in priority in applications to Catholic HS.[/quote] Yes this was us as well. We considered moving into the independent school for 6th, but waited, and DD still got in for HS. Saved ourselves close to $100K. [/quote] What independent K-8 Catholic school?[/quote] I’m not the PP, but generally, K-8 that are designated as Blue Ribbon schools are good. [/quote] Oops, sorry, I misread. Thought you wanted to know which are good parochial K-8.[/quote]
