Only one did, the all boys catholic high school I went to for 9th grade only in the SFV (Notre Dame) back in the early 80s. It was the last year of being strictly an all boys school before it went coed the following year. I'm not sure how things changed, but compared to the other 2 high schools I went to (North Hollywood and Polytechnic) it was leaps and bounds ahead of them as far as academic expectancies and standards. I got a rough equivalent when I ended up at Poly and they put me in all Academically Enriched or Honors classes, but the average schmuck classes were substandard to say the least.

It was sad that had I never had exposure to private schools I would have been left in those average classes that were beyond NOT challenging as so many kids are today.

It seemed to be true that teachers in private school and in accelerated classes in public schools had WAY more control over the classroom which obviously leads to better products (fairly educated people)
