Yes, I'm with M&M: church-based pre-Ks are rarely very religious, provided you pick some relatively mainstream church denomination. Usually you get a little something at Easter and Christmas, and that's about it, and even then the kids usually get the "Christian-light" version, not some walloping, Bible-thumping. And they're rarely very academic. Maybe a little abc-ing and some counting, but it's usually next-to-nothing, especially for the 2-3yos. It never bothered my DS to read the alphabet or to count stuff once a day. You're right though, HM, it depends on how much time they spend on it. 5 minutes is probably tolerable; all day is definitely not!

One of the benefits to their assuming kids that age won't know such things is that they also don't usually teach it to them much! wink
