[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you with kids in big co-ed Catholic schools—how do you see them as different from public schools? Assuming both have large student bodies and offer the same kinds of activities, and your child is doing great academically either way… why choose the private (and pricey) route if you're not specifically seeking a religious focus? What do you feel you get from it? [/quote] My local public school sucks, and my son needs a safe and rigorous environment to succeed. He wants to see girls, so that put DeMatha and Gonzaga out of the running. I don’t have the cash for Bullis or Maret, so SJC was a nice sweet spot, and I got ample aid.[/quote] St John's is very similar to public. More strict. But similar in all other ways.[/quote] No when it comes to college admissions public is way better same with Math and science.[/quote]
