I went to a Catholic high school and we had a few Jewish students as well as a handful of Muslim students. They may still require you to take Religion class (Christian-focus only) as part of the curriculum, but you'll learn some interesting things you may not already know. It prompted me to take some religion classes afterwards, in college, so I could widen my perspective of religion (Jewish, Islam, & Hindi). It was very interesting and I came to the conclusion that there must be a core moral belief system that all religions follow: do not kill, do not steal, do not lie, treat others fairly, etc.
why would u want to go to catholic school? do u relate to anything jewish or ur jewish just because u were born that way? cuz if u relate to it then things that they will teach in catholic school will contradict things that u believed ur whole life, and that could confuse u, cause resentment toward ur school and/or toward the way u were brought up, cause conflict between u and ur family, etc. there are jewish schools out there that also have great extra curriculars, i dont know where u live but i know that in the tristate area there are many schools like that. i dont know ur affiliation, but u can ask ur guidance couselor and principal if they know of any schools that have the characteristics ur looking for while at the same time share the same perspective as u
When I went to Catholic school, there was a good portion of kids there that weren't Catholic. As long as your parents are okay with it. it should be fine. When I went, they didn't make you do the totally 'Catholic' things like confession and communion.
