Question

Next year i'm going to a catholic school...are they much different from public?

Answer 1

Depends.. they can be

Answer 2

Not an EXTREME amount, but a bit. They may vary or dominate in a particular race. Of course Catholic school is going to teach you about religions, and the people there may be different from public. Good luck with your new school! I hope this unifies you with God, and gives you a good experience.

Answer 3

My kids all went to Catholic school and when they switched to the public school they had no issues at all with it.  The classes are smaller and it is a lot stricter of an evironment.  I know where our kids went that had more independant study time and did really well with it.  the only part they really hated was the uniforms.

Answer 4

Dont know ive gone to private school all my life

Answer 5

The classes are smaller, there are no student behaviour problems.  You might have to wear a uniform.  Religion will be a class subject and you will get to pray in class.

Answer 6

you pray thats it

Answer 7

yes there different! i went to 1 then changed to public and its much better.

Strict uniform.

strict religon.

strict academic work.

Answer 8

It really depends on the school.   There are wonderful Catholic schools, with caring teachers, small classes, and an outstanding curriculum.  There are also TERRIBLE Catholic schools.  My daughter went to Catholic kindergarten in a class of 30 kids....THIRTY!   She had nightmares all year because her kindergarten teacher told her that "Lucifer comes into your house at night and tries to turn your heart black."   I pulled her out and put her in public school.

Answer 9

they are better with better education and the uniforms arent so bad because you dont have to plan out what you have to wear every night.

hope it helps (:

Answer 10

yes!!! the people are very naughty!!! especially girls!!! lol

Answer 11

They aren't bad. Teachers can be more strict and you'll get more homework, but it's not bad. Beware of the teenage middleschool Catholic schoolgirls, they can be crazy!

Answer 12

not really. My 6 year old son is in catholic school. In his school they pray 3 times a day - beginning, at snack time and at end of class. Your school may only pray once or twice a day. Other than the prayers and the occassional mention of God in the lessons, theres no real difference. My son is  5  and is quite good at reading for his age - his writing is another story but thats not the teachers fault.My son just hates writing.

Answer 13

my friend went to one and he said there r a lot of drug and smoking around..... he said there r a lot of pressure.....

ohh the classrooms r prettier i suppose..... because they'r rich.... (T^T i wish i'm rich too....)

well personally i would like to go to one because most of the uniforms r sooooo cute~~

Answer 14

Classes are much smaller which is a whole lot better.  You don't really have to deal with all of the drama that goes on in public school.
