why is catholic school education important to your family

I've been in catholic school all of my life, a majority of my friends are from public schools though. I really dont think its important to my family, the region aspect def isnt. Sure, catholic schools are advanced, but only by a little. My boyfriend is a year older then me in public and is learning the same thing as me right now.. how i see it is we all learn the same things, just some in catholic schools are faster which doesn't make things better. Both public and catholic schools can be successful equally.
