[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have always viewed Gonzaga as a gloried public school.

It is not nearly as Catholic as you think.

Gonzaga is as far from a public school as you can get.  Not sure where pp is getting this impression.  First of all, it is single sex. I have, however, heard of SJC getting that description.  DS shadowed there, and he said it felt like public school with uniforms. [/quote]

[b]FYI, they outlawed prayer in public school years ago. [/b]They've also increased class sizes, eliminated class retreats, and stopped major investments in athletic facilities. Oh, and the public HS floors and grounds aren't so clean you could eat off of them. SJC does not feel like a public in those ways. However, in the spirit of Saint John de la Salle, SJC is committed to serving the entire DC community. That includes SE. Is that what made it feel like a public school? [/quote]

Outlawed organized prayer - students are still allowed to have prayer groups, and relatively non-denominational things like invocations are still permissible.  [/quote]
