Public school, no college.

[Curt]

In light of the requests for ages, I will update my post.

I am 64. I started public school in 1950.
I graduated from a public high school in 1962.

Then I went to state colleges/universities for my BS and my MA.

To seminaries (private, of course) round out my formal education with the M.Div and D.Min.

 

[Confessor]

Kindergarten @ a Catholic school (my parents very strictly kept me away from praying to Mary, etc., and my teacher was a Baptist), 1-12 @ a public school, and I will be graduating from my private, secular university in 2012...if the world doesn't end, that is.

 

[Jeff Allen]

I will date myself. public elementary 1 through 8 small southern town. We read the bible in class, prayed, and the teachers paddled the students. I got bit by a wasp near my eye and one of the teachers took her cigarrette and made a tobbaco patch for my eye.


There after public through college in California.

@ a Baptist teaching at a Catholic school!

Ben, I admit I'm really surprised to hear that you went to a public school. You must have had some very good teachers.

Given recent conversation, I think the poll would be more useful if it were divided into these three:

1)Government Schools and Secular Private Schools
2) Christian Schools
3)Christian Home Schools

There really is no difference between a private secular education and a government one. Besides price. So there may be a good number of people marking 'private' when that doesn't mean Christian, although that's usually the way it's taken.

I didn't know you and I were the same age... I thought you were already one year into college.

[SoldierOfTheRock]

I went to public K-12, and in fact it was there that I heard about the puritans through the book "The Scarlet Letter". They kept talking about "Providence", which intrigued me. I googled and ended up here on the PB!

It was the best thing I learned there.
