[quote=Anonymous]OP, I love the idea of bringing religious dialogue into school (I worry that since it can’t be talked about in so many realms, that it just “other-izes” anyone different). We have been so happy with our kids’ Episcopal school experience. It brings in ethics and awareness of all types of religions without being dogmatic and saying there is only one way to believe. But as much as I appreciate the presence of religion, I just don’t think that I could pick a catholic school. I would worry too much about what they were being taught in religion classes and how the role of women, lack of respect for the complexity of abortion, and how gay kids who might be struggling would be treated. If I couldn’t afford our episcopal school, our kids would have done public over a Catholic school. I fully recognize that many catholic schools offer great educations, but it just felt like I would be sacrificing my values in search of an independent school experience. [/quote]
