Woods Academy is Catholic lite compared to the parochial schools.

You wouldnt ask the question here "I'm looking for a Jewish Day School, but maybe light on, you know, the really Jewish parts".

Because it's absurd.

+1 absurd and frankly obnoxious.

That's what I'm thinking, too.

OP, we are a non-Catholic family and send our child to a parochial school. It is "churchy" - prayers three times a day, Mass once a week (plus special Mass at different times throughout the year), and daily religion class based on a Catholic religious textbook for children. Music class is based on religious music. If you send your child to a Catholic school, yes, you should expect your child to learn and respect Catholic teachings.
