[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of public school parents, even the fairly liberal ones, are uncomfortable with the progressive indoctrination that is now occurring in the public and private schools.  They are seeking a more balanced, moderate environment where kids are taught to think for themselves.  And yes, it’s completely ironic that the best place for this is actually a Catholic school.

This is not why. The pandemic exposed the priorities of public schools and school boards and it was not the children so people looked for alternatives. Catholic high schools are cheaper and provide structure so fewer behavioral issues. Also many Catholic high schools are feeders to top schools like Georgetown (Visi has a dual enrollment program), Notre Dame and Boston College. [/quote]

I think it is definitely a combination of both. The progressive indoctrination was exposed during the pandemic when parents were in the same room as their kids during virtual learning and could overhear what was being taught.

What was being taught? Be specific and provide an example. Many of you are repeating Fox News talking points but cannot point to a specific example in Maryland, Virgnia or the District.[/quote]
