And yes, we did. His older brother went to public school for the first two
years, and part of second grade -- after that, it was Catholic schools all
the
way. AJ, the Eagle Scout, is attending a Catholic college too (his choice,
but
obviously we're pleased).

The story of how and why we switched Ken (#1 son) from public to Catholic
school is ... well, the short version is that his second-grade teacher was
completely incompetent, and the school administration refused to do
anything
about it --




Depends on where you live. Our kids went to catholic school in Philly. When
we moved to CT, we enrolled them in the catholic school here. Big mistake.
Got them out before there minds rotted from lack of use. While the public
school was still not up the our standards, it was much better than the
catholic school. There are also two private schools in the area, but
tuition is more than most colleges.
