**Some Christian schools - especially those operated by fundamentalist churches - go further and require that at least one parent be a "Christian" as the school defines such.  If the parents are Catholic, and the school is run by an [[Independent Baptist]] church, the student likely will be rejected, as IFB churches do not consider Catholics to be Christians, due to significant differences in beliefs.  (Some go even further and require students at a certain grade level to be Christians themselves, again as the school defines such.)

*Another concern is that some schools will reject a student who would pose a "disciplinary risk" (the latter being very loosely defined depending on whether the Christian school wants a student or not); school voucher opponents claim that this is used as a backdoor method of rejecting students based on race (outside of, possibly, a few "token" minority children so as to give the appearance of integration.
