Gary:...
Gary: Wanna make out in the church?

1) Another name for hell

2) A place that restricts everything, nail polish, hair dye, normal clothes, heels over a centimeter, etc
3) A school where the education is supposedly better, also they have religion class

4) Most of the kids are atheists

1) “Oh god, I hope catholic school isn’t that bad”
2) Teacher: (yelling) “HOW DARE YOU WEAR THAT!! NO WEARING NAIL POLISH, THIS IS A CATHOLIC SCHOOL”
3) Teacher: “Ok so since you go to a catholic school, you must have religion class”
Class: *rolls eyes*
4) “Ellen went to catholic school for high school, I hear she’s atheist now”

catholic school 

the place where catholic kids go to school because their parents make them. they wear uniforms, and dont care what they look like. they are cheating experts, and don't act catholic at all. they dont care what the public school kids think because theyre having plenty of fun. once you go to a catholic school, your a catholic school kid forever.

public school kid: howd you pass biology?
catholic school kid: the kid next to me was smart.

catholic school 

a place where kids don’t act catholic at all because there parents made them go there. only goes to church when the school requires you to, were the ugliest uniforms, can’t have died hair nail polish etc., no leggings on dress down days, wears their skirts shorter than short. they just don’t act catholic at all. have to find a way to sneak their phone into class. they are the cheating masters! people go to school high as heaven. distracts the teachers to get off of topic so you don’t have to keep learning (especially religion class). public school kids are put to shame next to a catholic school kid. once a catholic school kid always a catholic school kid.

public school friend: hey how are you’re grades so high
catholic school kid: my teachers don’t know my ways but the kid next to me was pretty smart

Catholic School 

A place where no human would ever want to go. All the positive definitions, they've all been brainwashed. I went to Catholic school for 3/8 years, and I lost my mind. Everyone there is a rich, exclusive snob, and they only like you if you're good at sports, and even if you are, the still will sometimes ignore you. The students there are whores, and if your don't believe that, they're jerks. The education there is terrible, too. I didn't learn much of anything for 3 years. Most of the 6th graders didn't even know how to simplify fractions. I begged to move to a public school, and when I did, I was amazed at how friendly the people were, how the teachers were smarter and better, and how I actually had friends. Catholic school drove me insane. I hear/heard voices in my head, (Steven says hi btw), I was made fun of, I had no friends, and it just sucked. Please, if you're thinking of sending someone you love to Catholic school, don't. Don't even send someone you hate there, they probably don't deserve it. Take it from me, a survivor of Catholic school.

You can use the term "like a Catholic school" to describe place you don't like.

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.
