As for academics, I can name a few public schools in NYC that outshine almost any other school, private, religious or public in the country.

Well, I have to agree, there's going to be exceptions. I should state in this in general terms.

And you are correct. Morality begins at home. Parents who send their children to such school simply want a continuation of what they are trying to teach their children. It's the reenforcement of those values they won't be able to get in a public school.

Yet there may be a few exceptions, and happily so at that.

Looks like that storm blew way South of us here in SoFlo. I hadn't checked since yesterday. I'm feeling pretty religious myself this morning.

The exceptions prove that it is possible. All it takes is the will to make it happen. Sadly, that will seems lacking. Parents and administrators seem much too intent on being engaged in some nonsensical philosophical debate over books and religion and social issues, anything but the actual education of children.
