The document talks about things lik. [/quote]

Which ones would you recommend?  I assumed that which is why I looked but the numbers were very few.  I am more concerned about non-Christian and how they handle that.  There is a big difference between non-Catholic and non-Christian in terms of beliefs.[/quote]

Catholic school mom here.  I would recommend that you not pursue a Catholic school education based on your concerns.  The Catholic schools are very accepting of other religions.  However, they will be teaching your child the Hail Mary and Our Father, have religion class every day, attend mass at least 1X per week, and yes, encourage them to go to pro-life marches.  This is what the Catholic church preaches, and what Catholic schools instill.  Some may be more conservative than others, but I can guarantee that just about every one has a bus taking eighth graders to DC for the pro-life march every January.  Expect to also see this happening in Catholic high schools as well.  Of course attending is not mandatory, but the discussion will be happening in the classroom.[/quote]

Thank you.  We looked at several and one I liked and I think they'd handle it better than the others but I am still hesitant.  I am not ok with things like the pro-life march and don't want my child exposed to it which is why I'm hesitant.  There is no way my 8th grader will be going to a anti-choice march.  I'm not supporting him supporting people who are anti abortion, yet are not willing to adopt and foster kids who need homes (not just newborns).  [/quote]

Why not?  I am pro choice, but my high school son is pro life. I think kids should make up their own minds at some point. [/quote]
