All I am asking is that all you baws stop calling parochial school private school.
Parochial is too hard to say so if you pay tuition to go to elementary, middle or high school, it’s private.
Suck it, Trebek.

Right, and Catholics rarely send their children to Christian school down here.

private" as an adjective is very generic and applicable to many different topics. While parochial is accurate and more specific than private, 'private' is the opposite of public.
In that context, a Catholic school, not public, so it is natural to consider it private. I'm a curmudgeon, and I can sympathy with you on the importance of good terminology; but is this really a hill you want defend? Is there not a greater injustice or error you could help rectify?
This isn’t semantics by any means. Let’s be really honest. Catholic schools in Louisiana were designed as a defacto method of segregation.

This is so Louisiana and after 16 years of living there I don’t get why people from there claim crap that just isn’t true.

Is that why some date back to the 1800s?

Yes I think parochial education is the worst level of education. It requires the lowest of requirements from teachers
Please, in all your wisdom, explain the magnanimous academic numbers that Jesuit NOLA students achieve year in and out, since, well, 1847...
...I’ll wait to be enlightened by your response.
Idiot.

Sounds like you’re jealous of Louisiana’s cheap private education.

Is it run by the public?
No?
It’s private.
FYI the Catholic high schools in this city aren’t run by the parish (except St. Michael)

All parochial schools are private, but not all private schools are parochial. And if this is what’s setting you off on Friday morning, you’ve got a good life. Enjoy

Lol he’s some leftist with an agenda. I didn’t notice it for the first few of his posts. Shame on me.

All the while St Joseph, and CHS have 100% college acceptance rate, 100% college scholarships rate, and ACT scores that average 27 but yea you are correct they are NOT creating a better learning environment.

I work at an Independent Private school in Houston. Yes it is FAR different from the Catholic schools in BR. I went to BR Catholic schools and think they are great but you get what you pay for.... Classes size here k-5 is 16. Admissions are very selective. Teacher/coach pay is double what it is in LA. The tuition is 28,000 a year.... Its a different world.
Oh and the median ACT score at these joints is 32.....
That being said kids are kids and you can be successful anywhere. The independent schools ive worked at are more lax on some rules compared to Catholic schools. Which was strange for me. But both are full of good kids and people but there are def differences
