Cecily Stock, who is head of the school, said most students are not Catholic.

It sounds basically like Iolani here. Private schools can do what they want. Even if they are associated with a religion, they don't have to force the religion on their students if they don't want to. This school is making the obvious right choice for themselves.

Yeah, they can do whatever they want, but if their premise is that "Catholic" stuff will erode their ability to be financially viable (the school officials use euphemisms), then they should, to be consistent and/or honest, eliminate the school being named for a Catholic saint. I'm just sayin'...
