Im not talking about preschools.
It is a fact that over 80% of those in christian schools dont believe in GOD or in christianity.
So whats the point?

I was thrown into public school too young and due to that and my shy/timid nature it was a living Hell. my parents saw I was miserable and gave me the option to go to a private school. It was the best thing they did for me growing up. God or no God, children can be cruel.

Where did this "fact" come from? If they don't believe in Christianity then they aren'e a Christian school are they? And if they don't believe in God then they can't believe in Christ which also makes them not a Christian school.
Therefore there really are NO Christian schools out there that do not believe in God and Jesus. 100% of them actually do and must or they are not.

Let's start with a given - that being that you made up your 80% figure. Next, they offer education which is superior to that of public schools. Thirdly, discipline. Although there are many other advantages to Christian schools, a primary one is the teaching of respect for others through societal values based upon Biblical morals as opposed to secular human values.

The point is, that Christian schools also teach morality, which the public schools have veered off from. Since secular society wants to accept a different code of morality than that of the Bible, simply because of their beliefs, many Christians don't want their kids to pick up teachings that go against their beliefs, like acceptance of safe sex, gay marriage, pro-choice etc. These beliefs, though condoned by society, actually hurt our society when you take them out to their logical conclusion, such as emotional consequences, disease, and long term heartache

I know for a fact that children that are in Christian School...have a higher academic
averages than parochial schools...its just that these schools can give more time to these children, and their are less children in each class...its more one on one help...

It still provides an alternative to public schools. It would be better if the schools were only for Christians.

Over 80% ? Highly doubtful. Cite your source.

My G/F went to Christian school and says it was ruined when they started letting in unbelievers because most of them were troubled and kicked out of there public school.
