[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think OP’s point (which the replies have only proven) is that the grass is NOT greener at Catholic schools compared to public schools. If anyone thinks that DMV-area Catholic k-8 schools are going to provide a better, more pro-family, more supportive environment compared to public schools, they are SORELY mistaken. Same BS, same wasted days, same admin trying to maximize days off and gaming the system, etc. They just go to mass and religion class more - up to you if that’s worth $15,000 per year when you can go to CCD for free. [/quote] People really have short memories around here. But I remember very clearly when public schools in this area closed in March 2020, and remained closed for the entire 2021-22 year. On the other hand, most Catholic schools opened in August/September of 2021 and stayed opened throughout the year. My daughter didn't miss a beat of in-person school, while her public school friends languished in their basements behind screens (or not). The Catholic schools even hand to fight back against Montgomery County government, which tried to close all non-public schools to keep public schools enrollment up. It didn't work thanks to Governor Larry Hogan, who squashed that attempt. [/quote]
