Private religious schools

My mom attended catholic school. She told there were also Jewish kids there.

You won't be alone because as a teacher you will be associated with the other teachers.

Yeah, I'm going to meet my cooperating teacher this week. She's also a bit of a hurdle though since I have no clue what she'll be like or how devout she is or how open she'll be to people who don't share her faith.
Like worse cast scenario she's one of those holier than thou types who reject and shun anyone who doesn't believe and then make my placement hell. Idk, I'm sure she'll be professional, I've just always been the "Assume the worst and prepare for that" type.
I'm just nervous about going into something I'm unfamiliar with. I know thats exactly why we were placed this way though. They purposely placed all the students who went to public schools when they were in high school to private schools, and vice versa, to give us wider experience with schooling.

It depends on where you are really. I went to Catholic school kindergarten through high school, but I was in a very liberal city and even most of the kids I met in high school weren't particularly religious. Religion never even came into place in our history classes unless it was relevant to the discussion (ie discussing aspects of Protestant beliefs when studying early American history).
>Will I have difficulties getting my students to pay attention/respect me if they find out I know nothing about their faith
Any teacher who teaches something they know nothing about will have trouble getting respect.
>Should I try to fake it
No, they'll pick up on that.
>Sometimes parents send their kids there solely for the private school aspect
This was very true in my case.

Cant you just ask for another assisgnment? I will never understand why you people have to invade spaces.
why do jews even sign up for xristian things. It just makes it less special. You dont stop being a jew just because you bully your way in.
I dont know your background but just find a public school. It will make you more well rounded anyway.

I got stuck in a creationist private high school for a year and a half.

It's a cult, man. I don't know how normal religious schools work, but my creationist classmates were just insane. The teachers were even more insane, I remember my """""""""science"""""""""" teacher would ramble endlessly on and on about the "evil" evolutionists, and their dastardly plot to destroy christianity.

I hated it there. I should have protested, demanded my parents that I be put in a different school, but I didn't. Maybe one day I'll go back there, just for kicks, so that I can tell the whole school some edgy /pol/ thing like "Creationism is a jewish plot to degrade and destroy Christianity", just to piss them off.
