Saving Catholic Schools | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: In the District of Columbia, even though the scholarship program has ended, students can attend Charter Schools that were once Parish Schools.  This sounds like a good model to me.  There is something about Catholic School, however, that adds a degree of discipline within the school that is not to be minimized.  Most importantly, having daily religion classes provides a far superior indoctrination in the faith than a weekly CCD class.  My 9 year old's inattention at Mass is testament of the difficulty of getting religion class only once a week at an early age.
