One of my kids is in Catholic school- I don’t see how a “secular school” can function the same. Cathholic schools have a moral compass that points to God. Secular schools have moral relativist compasses that swing wherever the holder wishes it to swing.

Catholic schools usually have a more disciplined approach, so I'm interested to see whether the discipline works as well without the faith-base.

Let me add that Catholic schools usually have parents who have a more disciplined approach as well.

I really think it can. And radiohead hits a major point in regard to parents.

Even if it is secular, if they are going in knowing ahead of time regarding a much more disciplined environment, I don't think it will matter much that it is secular, rather than faith-based.
