Does a Catholic Priest make a good babysitter?

A slightly rude way of saying "no".
Friend 1: You and Jen have been broken up for 6 months now... would it be cool if I asked her out?

Friend 2: Does a Catholic Priest make a good babysitter? Asshole.

Catholic School

In the United States, enrollment reached its peak in the early 1960s, with approximately 5.2 million students. American Catholic elementary schools have seen a steep decline in enrollment in recent decades. Many are now closed. The system can be highly political and out of touch with the spiritual needs of its stakeholders. Actions speak louder than words. Pay attention IF and HOW the community is making a difference in children's faith journey, care for social justice, and building a better world, etc. If the school claims "excellent education," what is their definition of excellence? What benchmarks are they using?

PROS: People are generally nice. Spring break, summer break, winter break, students are fun, work is not stressful.
CONS: Low professional development/leadership pipeline opportunities for teachers and staff, very low pay, can be political. Low-tech. Religion/faith formation ironically can feel like an afterthought, a mandatory checkmark.

SUGGESTIONS: School communities vary. Read online reviews, visit schools, and do your research. Some schools are genuinely worth the investment. Others not so much. Independent Catholic elementary schools and Catholic high schools tend to have more resources. They share the same Catholic identity as its diocesan/archdiocesan schools but operate under separate governing structures: more innovation, less bureaucracy.
Catholic school can be great or traumatizing.

Cathedral High School

An all-girls catholic school in Manhattan that has the best reputation for an all-girls school in NY. In other words, half the senior class isn't pregnant and they have nice uniforms. Near St. Patrick's Cathedral.
I graduated from Cathedral High School last June.

Catholic Priests

Stupid men who are sexually frustrated by their commitment to celibacy. Usually molest boys and keep them silent by using their "godly" authority.
Every year, thousands of Catholic Priests are transferred by the church to help cover up the fact that most of them are child molesters.
