[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DS will enter kindergarten next year! The plan was always to send him to the local parochial catholic school but my husband really wants to send him to public. 
I am a VERY nervous since I grew up going to private throughout (the families and academics were great) 
Are the kids and families friendly at Churchill? Is there weird gender and woke ideology at Churchill? Are the academics good? Do they use textbooks or are they on screens mostly? Is there homework to reinforce concepts?  Any other reassurance is welcomed! 
Thank you!

CRS is good as an elementary school. 
Middle school and high school in that pyramid have some issues you mentioned.
You can transfer kids to private after 6th grade if these bother you:

OP-My kids are in another pyramid and they have never come home talking about radical ideologies. Right now my 8th grader is taking AAP Civics and they need to analyze 8 articles per month in different subjects (science, politics, geography, and something else I forgot)-including source, whether they think it's biased, author's intent, which perspective is being ignored, etc. I am not sure if it's just AAP or honors but there is a lot of not just giving answers but thinking about them. I think the biggest advantage of private school is a [b]much stronger foundation in writing and grammar.[/b]  Not to avoid "woke ideology," which honestly just sounds like a conservative buzzword.
