[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to make your own choice. But know at Catholic schools, how the school "embraces other religions" is to show how they're inferior but still worthy of studying.[/quote]

We would never do Catholic, instead we provide other enriching activities through family vacations, an au pair who takes the kids after school 3 x a week (on trips to museums, or other activities), summer camp experiences and spring break trips to a diff state each year.

Education starts at home, it does not begin in school.

We don't want our children to only think in a linear way. [/quote]

Seems only one who is thinking "in a linear way" is the PP, who claims they would "never do Catholic" when they clearly know nothing about Catholic schools.[/quote]

Perhaps I should clarify that no religious schools would be okay for us. You are your child's first teacher, education and learning does not take place in a corporate structure. It takes place at home.  [/quote]

You do you.  We like having the reinforcement of religion in the classroom. It actually expands their education beyond a public school experience where religion can never be discussed.  Those kids are missing out and getting the type of education that might make THEM think in a linear way.  My kids learned about all religions, not just Catholicism.  Sadly not allowed in public schools.

Catholic school works great if you're Catholic. Not so much if you aren't.[/quote]

Catholic school did not work great for the Catholic I know best. (Spouse, who attended a parish ES we refer to around here as Our Lady of Perpetual Agony.)[/quote]
