with they were.

I think Catholic schools should only admit practicing Catholics. Let woke Protestants go corrupt their yutes at their own schools

Ages? Are they artsy or sporty?
Catholic, SJA and St. Michael all run around 13k a year. I speak from having two grads from SMHS...their academics are great and if you have a kid that plays sports they will be able to play. My oldest graduated with 18 hours towards her undergrad at LSU and my other daughter was just a normal high school kid. She struggled with school but college is easy for her.

Idk much about Dunham and episcopal other than they are the two most expensive schools in BR. I wouldn't send a dog to Parkview. Mean girls and bitchy moms.

Send them to Episcopal if you want your kid to see other weirdos walking around dressed up as a furry and the admin encouraging it


Huh. I thought Hancock got canned about 20 years ago.

and at least that will be free at BR Magnet - you’ll get the same result at Episcopal for a higher price

Homeschooling is never a. Better option. I’m sorry, but I’ve known numerous home schooled kids and parents. It is never equivalent to the same level education you get in a private school and that’s not even taking into account the social aspect deficit of home schooled kids


This is complete BS. I was homeschooled from 5th grade - HS graduation. I am very social, earn 6 figures, have an accounting degree and you would never think "Oh, she was homeschooled." Your stereotype of homeschooled kids is prehistoric and shows your lack of intelligence.

public school experiences that most of us had. Schools are a minimum security prison producing below grade level students. If you can afford elite private education, then you can easily downsize to provide education for your children at home I’m fine if you don’t want to, but the world is better off for those who have


I don't think anyone is arguing public is better than homeschooling, but both suck honestly.

I don't think many advocate homeschooling over private.

I would but I don’t feel like arguing about it today

My kids went to private school for a while - if you want them to do well you have to be involved - my kids were always at the tops of their classes because my husband and I busted our butts as parents

I didn’t like the environment after a while, so I pulled them out and started homeschooling - my oldest graduated summa cum laude in engineering in May

What about the social aspect deficit boys that go to a high school with no girls get stuck with?
