Are there any that don't prepare kids for high school?

Okay ENOUGH with the trolling! As the OP, can we get back to the question and ignore the trolls (ps I went to Catholic school my whole life and I am a doctor and I have always been taught evolution thought out elementary/highschool and was a Bio major at Duke…)

The question is as a highschool admin/admissions, which k-8 parochial/private schools do a great job at preparing their student for high school and beyond

We are looking at schools and thought it would be valuable to get feedback on the other side to see where to start (yes we know lots can change in 8 years)!

Thank you!

Parochial schools sure if you want a kid indoctrinated and not taught science

I don't understand this trolling? Is this driven by ignorance or hate? Catholicism isn't evangelicalism. The Church has long recognized evolution, the big bang, etc.

Is it driven by ignorance or hate? Probably both.

Catholic schools teach excellent and main stream science. The inventor of the big bang theory was a Catholic priest, and evolution is absolutely accepted and taught in Catholic schools.
But some really stupid and hateful people don't choose to know or believe that.

PS - Forgot to add - our kids were both 100% prepared for their Big 3
