[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know SR is a catholic school but is it conservative? Is it more on the right side or the left?[/quote]
Not an SR parent but the daughter of one of my close friends goes there. Not conservative and not super catholic. I heard about pride flags in the classroom and many of the girls go to pro choice marches.

Not sure why you are spreading inaccurate information about the school here when you aren't even in the community. There are no pride flags hanging at SR. The school has pivoted to a much stronger Catholic identity while still being welcoming to non Catholic families. Gender issues are tolerated, but not condoned by any means. It certainly isn't celebrated like it is in pubic schools. Plenty of conservative families at SR who will not tolerate that nonsense.

Definitely not nonsense under any circumstance.  [/quote]

Sure it is. Glad SR doesn’t promote pride activities like so many public schools. It is having a horrible influence on our youth. [/quote]

LOL you do realize there are dozens of lesbian girls at SR? One could be your daughter or her best friend. Get a grip. Even the Pope doesn't care about same sex couples at this point. [/quote]

LOL, dozens?  Maybe. There's a handful of trans and I honestly don't care about sexual preference. I just don't want my child in a school that celebrates being trans or ones sexual orientation. Totally not necessary and SR does not do that. They quietly accept it, which is totally appropriate. And no, my daughter is 100% straight and one of the few devout students in the school who is also pro life.  They need more like her.[/quote]
You think it’s wrong to celebrate being different? I care more about whete the girks are kind to each other, supportive etc, then I do about their sexuality. The type of kids in my kids cohort matters. Their sexuality or gender identity does not. [/quote]

If it doesn't matter, then why do you want them to celebrate it?

It shouldn't matter whether someone likes boys or girls. It is a private matter not to be advertised and promoted all over the place. Nor is it ok to celebrate kids with gender confusion. If you are going to do that you should celebrate lots of other things like: kids with learning differences, kids who come from single parent homes, kids who are adopted, kids who have physical limitations, kids who are cancer survivors, I could go on. [b]Why single out celebrating a certain group of people based on sexual issues.[/b] It is perverted.

Few things are more celebrated than heterosexual pairings. When you're a kid, there's Valentines Day at school, Disney movies, Barbies, pretend weddings, those "future ladies' man" shirts you can buy for a literal toddler – it's everywhere. My kid's 3rd grade teacher (not at SR) showed the class pictures of her wedding with her husband, and the kids all thought it was adorable. Our middle school has done shows like Beauty & the Beast, Adams Family, High School Musical, Shakespeare plays, all about straight relationships. When you're in high school, there's a huge emphasis on homecoming, prom, etc.

We're a two-mom family and I don't have a problem with any of this (minus the toddler shirts, that one's weird). But it's pretty wild to say we "promote" homosexuality by existing or maybe having a rainbow flag when our entire culture is set up to celebrate straight people.[/quote]
